No need to worry. The leaves will end up turning purple hues. Your taking straight the plant to the limits of its potential. The thick trichomes are happy, the leaves arn't curling up, tips arn't burnt. Dark green is a sign of potential over feeding, or heading in that direction, but it comes with other signs as well. I'm not seeing them here. Good luck in your harvest.

Nothing to worry. This is just good and healthy. Give as much light, as you can give. This will be a great harvest in 6 weeks.

Waaaay over fed in general, but nothing you can do about it this late in the cycle...........no point worrying about it.

Not at all. If you were overfeeding, you would have more issues than just dark foliage - this is more pheno related and just fine. You should actually start to see some color change soon as you head into late ripen and into harvest - like the corner of the leaf in the 2nd photo. Blue sunset likes to turn up a range of colors from orange/red/dark purple/dark blue in late ripen so keep an eye out for that :)

Definitely keep an eye on it.. not sure if you are soil or soilless, but there are things you can do to reduce concentration. give an extra water-only irrigation between fertigations for soil, for example. Reduce concentration of soilless ferts and give excess runoff to drop substrate concentration down to new levels, etc... Becareful, while 1 or 2 things may be causing some extra lush leaves, that doesn't mean everything else is "too high", too. so, step down slowly since it isn't a catastrophe. If you see some deficiencies, you may need to drop stuff like N and Mg, but keep your Ca up over 100+ ppm in soilless/hydro context. Soil is less straightforward for this stuff.. just have to leech some out of medium and observe/react to what the plant does in the coming week or 2. 1-3 weeks is probably a good guess, based on the visual. pistils are coiling up. look like dense buds.s. just a short time for trichomes to get in the right window for your preferences.

Ya dejaste de suplementar? Anda bajando de a poco la suplementación de nitrogeno, nose cual es tu medio de cultivo, pero en tierra ya deberias a empezar con un flush y agua con ppm cada vez mas bajos al igual que el ph (si es que dominas la tecnica). Si estas en coco, segui suplementando pero con dosis de nitrogeno cada vez mas bajas hasta nulas.
