I have a wheatwine in the primary. Its is close to terminal gravity with in a few points. Airlock is slow. Does it need to go in a secondary or can i just leave it. Recipe recomend s2 week secondary. Its been in the primary 2 weeks. Recipe recomended it go in secondary with about a third left of terminal gravity. That didnt happen here. Should I just ride it out?

No secondary needed. What type of fermenter is it? Is it really air tight? If so, it can stay in there for months. If not (bucket...), bottling after it has cleared to your liking, after final gravity has been reached, would be a good idea.
Thanks. Its a glass carboy. Should be air tight. It was Imperial yeast Citrus. Ferm at 77 degrees to pull fruit flavors. Started at 1.077. Added 2 lbs dme a week to simulate a 1.10 starting gravity. Its in the teens now. Ill wait for it to clear. I planned to keg.
