Those buds look nice. Your very close to harvest and she's still building or throwing out some new calyx growth but it doesn't look like a bad case of fox tailing at all. I woulds back off your lights a bit she doesn't need high intensity at this point any more also lights with a heavy red spectrum can cause some fox tailing near the end of the grow. Some growers even go as far as adding more blue light during the week of their grow to increase terpene production. There is also some folk lore about keeping your plants in complete darkness for the last three days before harvest to help decrease the amount of chlorophyll in the buds.

Are you sure they are foxtailing or are the buds becoming a bit longer ? Because what I can see on the pics looks likes hard calyxys far from a fluffy foxtail. I think you can wait a week or 2 before harvest but it depends on the effect you want , you said trichomes are becoming ambers and it is leading to a couch lock effect , I'd you want a lighter effect then cut now.
