At this point i'd just leave them. Make some bubble has with them or even butter.. I wouldn't cut anything off. 👊

Browning pistils in early flower
Hey! Should I be worried that some of the bud sites have some browning pistils this early on? I have already moved the light away, and turned the fan down. It is not hot in the closet so it's not heat stress. I also watered with only water last time, with 10% run-off...

Add Nutrients after 2-4 days of sometimes heavy rain for an Auto. Yes or no?
I just had 4 days of sometimes heavy rain, 2 days in to it I added 1/3-1/2 my 3 day nute routine. We had 2 more days of sometimes heavy rain. Im in week 8 of an outdoor potted auto grow and I have 3 days of sun coming. Should I add nutes before they dry out? Bud rot from rain?

So I’ve seen a lot of people grow the strains I have in my garden right now with lots of colors. I’m in week 3 of flower and I have the slightest of fade but basically I’m all green. Which has been a pattern. Nothing wrong with that but any suggestions to boost color? Temp? Food?

When is it time to cure
At what point in the drying process is it cure time? I hang dried for a week in 63 temp and 54RH with good air flow. I can snap the stem, but still It’s stringy. Now they are in brown paper bags hanging in climate controlled tent.
