mike88answered grow question 4 years ago awesome guys, thanks so much for the feedback. this is my third time so i still have a lot to learn. had a bad thrip problem and had to spray with neem a bunch. then had to put it into flower a few days after the last spray and had a lot of leaves/real young bud sites fall off. i knew about haresting by trichome color, but didn't know about water temp affecting the pistil color. i had read that the pistils shouldn't really be changing colors until like week 5 or maybe even 6, and i had a BUNCH change early in week 4. i had heard that pistils changing colors can be a sign that they've been pollinated (and with a hermed GG4 next to it, got me worried i didn't catch it early enough). i use water that's sat for 24 hrs at room temp. really happy to hear you guys don't see signs of herms though, and think things look good. big sigh of relief!
thanks again everyone!
