Could just be the colors that strain shows during flowering.
Could be:
a Potassium deficiency

Its white widow,never seen a white widow with reddish leaves,dont get me wrong it looks great(!) but its only on 2 ww's(???) the other 3 dont have it.
Solution to fixing a Potassium deficiency
Any Chemical/Organic nutrients that have potassium in them will fix a potassium deficiency. Again Peters All Purpose plant food 20-20-20, will cure the potassium deficiency , Miracle grow Tomato plant food, Miracle grow All purpose plant food.( Only mixing at ½ strength when using chemical nutrients, or it will cause nutrient burn!) Some other supplements of potassium are: Wood ashes, which are fast absorption, Kelp Meal, which is medium absorption, Greensand, which is slow absorption, granite dust, which is slow absorption. Sulfate of Potash, Sulfate of Potash Magnesia, Muriate of Potash, which are medium absorption. FOXFARM GROW BIG HYDROPONIC CONCENTRATE, which is fast absorption. (FFGB can bring your ph down as well) Earth Juice Meta-K, which is fast acting. (Can bring down your ph as well) Leaves will never recover, but the plant will show recovery after about 4 to 5 days when using a fast acting nutrient.

Many traits in genetics make up structural content and size of flowers, as well as PH, soils conditions, additives, lighting, space between containers, waterings, to narrow this down takes some skills, having support to help is bud friendly.
Having deficiancies in nutrient value also may cause a "Cause & Effect" syndrome to the plants. Our additive values of fertilizers and the way they are applied can dramatically increase or decrease size, potency, yield.
I tend to look at getting or having some good basics down, before moving on and improving methods of fertilzers and applied altering conditions.
What weighs more? A ton of cotton or a ton of water? Point being is I see many big spacey airy buds and smaller tightly compacted Nuggies that when placed and weighed in they are the same value in weight. Hierba you are doing a great job in growing these beautiful ladies. Sometimes the size does not matter. It is the overall density and weight that and performance of the ladies punch we all desire to obtain. Your colas will start to increase, patience is a great part of growing. I wish I had more of it myself.

Hierba you ever check the ph of that runoff. are the fan leaves still twisting. I had the same problem just 2 weeks ago and after I calibrated my meter it was off by 1 point. after a flush and new nutes they are fine. andy botwin may be on to something.

Aloha,
When should I stop giving em nutes?
Theyre at day 42 of flowering and the seed company 'dinafem'(i got them from there) says that it can take upto 60 days.
Also,Dinafem recommends leaving them in total darkness for the last 5 days,should i try this out?

If they're supposed to take 60 days, i'd start the flush on day 55 or 56. You really should get a 20x lighted scope to look at the trichs. That'll tell you when they get close When you think they're 3-4 days from being ripe, start your flush.
