I think moonlight is pretty weak for them. not exactly sure....
Im sure they are in tune to everything in nature including moon cycles and everything but thats probably not something that would be necessarily worth replicating.
Your plants will finish up fine. Just give them time

Here' she is
got about 10 days left in her
I cut about 9 grams off the top in this picture, to keep it from auto burning.
They still look pretty white but if you inspect them they're at the perfect period during thc peaking

Autoburning? I'll be honest, I can never make any sense of what you are talking about lol.

I cut off the tops of two cola's because they were the closest to the light
and i want the rest of the plant to get more light
so that the spindles you see coming out turn from white to amber
when about 10% of them are amber there's a lot of thc there

The pics aren't working, but by white spindles do you mean the underdeveloped pistils? Sounds to me like you just ruined your best buds on that plant. You need to go buy a handheld microscope and look at the trichomes. 10% amber pistils sounds like you are way too early.

Doesn't matter how long it has been flowering. What matters is how long it actually has left. I have no idea how that plant hasn't hermed out or died on you man. 
This is what you need to be looking at. Not the hairs on the bud. The hairs can give you an estimation, but you aren't gauging those properly either. If you are in that much of a hurry, just chop the whole thing already because it isn't going to get any better with the way you are fucking with it. You should buy a book. Not trying to bust your balls, but this thread is painful to read.

I'm going to harvest it and plant the rest outside,

It is kind of hard to understand actually. The rest of what? You're going to cut the tops and put the plant outside after? Why?

once you harvest doesn't the top half of the plant become useless?
or do you think I should re-veg it inside and try again rather then move on

Oh so you want to harvest then re-veg the plant afterward? Well, you will probably need to keep it inside in order for it to get enough light to start vegging again (depending on where you live I guess). And be careful not to overwater it because it will be using a lot less.

You can harvest buds from a plant when its finished, and then put back into veg and grow new buds on it??! I'm confused.. I've really only grown outdoors and thought once a plant buds thats that. Can someone clear this up?

After flowering if you leave all the lower branches there with the budsites the plant will feed off the budsites and re-veg.
you re-pot the plant with about half of the root growth
then you feed it nitrogen or vegitative fertilize mostly and keep it lit for 14 hours and it'll reveg
then a couple months later it will flower again when you change the light to 12 hours

Cool I've never heard of anyone doing this.. Does it produce a substantial second harvest or just a small amount? Personally I'd probably just start new seeds or clones bc it seems like I'd get a better harvest for time and resources though

I'm pretty sure the second harvest is never as good as the first.

Yeah. its like one third and not worth it compared to growing a clone out or new plant.
The main stems get hard and woody
