NL Auto - First Grow

Day 71. Start of week 11, time is flying up till now. Feels like an eternity waiting for her to finish up! I've not watered her for a couple of days and her flowers almost feel like cured bud and smell fantastic if I lightly touch them. The fading hasn't been as quick as I was expecting actually and lots of leaves are hanging on with only slight colour change. Thinking of giving her the two days of darkness before chopping whenever that may be, and also keeping the bag seed, which after some research, I think might be Manga Rosa (Pink Mango), in the 2 days of darkness before switching her to flower. This is just from some research online about how it helps build up the hormones to trigger flowering faster. Might as well test it since she is an experiment anyway. Back to the NL Auto, I see some amber trichomes now but the pistils are maybe still too white? Would love some advice again about this. Day 72. I have decided to let her run for another week and see what happens. I'll keep checking daily to make sure the plant isn't maturing past where I want it too. Gave a watering this morning too so she doesn't completely dry out. Let's see how it goes. Day 73. Could be my imagination, but it looks like the bud on the main cola has filled out the gap between the top nug and a lower down one. I think she is bulking up a tiny bit but I am also weary of her trichomes getting too amber. I'll keep a close eye on this each day this week and if I feel they are turning too much I will harvest. Day 74. Can't see much change in appearance yet. Also finding it hard to take the same picture day to day to try and check the same trichomes. Today I found it difficult to find ambers for a picture. I think it will probably run for the whole week at this stage. Not sure how often I should be watering now though and whether I should be letting her dry up completely before the next watering just in case something changes and she needs to be chopped. I'll let her go today without a watering and think about giving her one tomorrow instead. Day 75. I do feel waiting the extra week or more was the right call now. She definitely hasn't produced as many amber trichomes as I thought she was and therefor probably had a fair bit of maturing to do. Smells great as usual but other than that, not much difference to the naked eye. Day 76. Feeling more confident each day that she definitely needed the extra time. Still not seeing a lot of amber trichomes and still see a few clears. I hope she's ready for Saturday so I can flip the other plant into flower. Smelling amazing after a light touch too. UPDATE Day 76. Decided tonight is the last time the lights come on for this girl. Just spent some time up close and personal examining her. Trichomes look to be exactly where I want them. Almost completely cloudy and very few amber. I know the pistils aren't looking prime but I'm happy with her. She smells amazing, and honestly feels like she is already pretty dry since I have been sparing with the waterings. 48 hours of darkness from tonight and will chop her Saturday morning. I hope the 48 hours of darkness doesn't stress out the bag seed too badly. I am hoping it will help in the switch to flowering if anything. Super excited and happy with results so far. Scared of the dry and cure though as I am not in the most stable environment. Expecting a high of 31c and low of 21c just in the next week with rain predicted all throughout so I am worried about the humidity levels. Wish me luck! Probably won't get a picture of her again until Saturday now! Day 77. Lights have been off since midnight and will stay off until Saturday morning when I chop. Concerned about the humidity though as it's currently sitting at 69% with lights off during the day. Hoping my airflow is good enough to make this a non issue but I also don't want to keep opening the tent to look and interrupt the darkness.
