Rescue or Chop time?

Would a partial harvest be okay? No risk to the rest of the plant?
Don't chop yet. Those yellow leaves are storage tanks for your plant. You've cause a nute lockout in the root zone and now the plant is pulling what it needs from the leaves. It does reduce your final harvest weight but you will still end up with less of lower quality than you would if you waited another few weeks. The buds will still mature and pack on more weight if you wait.
Looks like you are in Coco, if you are push about 50 litres of ph'd plain water through each pot and then feed the recommended mix for your nute line but cut strength by 50%. After the flush you want your EC at about 0.8 or 400 ppm. Do that for one week then slowly work your way back up to about 1.2-1.4 EC.
That's only for coco, if you are in soil then you will need advice from a soil grower.
Best of luck

Thanks for the tips! I am in soil, I hope it packs some more weight on! if I take a Side branch that looks more developed, and has the bad sugar leaves that I can’t get out of the buds will it mess it up? I am worried about them because the best humidity I can get is like 55%. I have seen talk of a partial harvest, but wasn’t sure if this one is too sick for that.
thanks again!
55% humidity shouldn't be a problem as long as you have plenty of air circulation around the plants. You can harvest some now and some later, there no harm done. But as long as the plant is still alive those flowers are still growing. Slower than what it would be if the plant was healthy but still growing.
Thank you!

Good luck with it mate, I have harvested some nice bud from plants that looked lots worse than yours. You will still get a harvest.
As to the partial harvest, I have done that a couple times and it works just fine. When I did it, I took the top colas first and left the less developed ones to mature further. Worked a treat as far as I could tell.
Good luck with it.
