Hi! The pistils can turn brown early for many reasons. Yours looks like it's heat related but cant say for sure. Other reasons can be due to pollination, touching or spraying water etc.. Hope this helps

Harvest Window - Close or still some time
I'm sitting at 78 days from sprout I haven't really checked trichromes until today. Pistils are mostly brown with some white ones here and there. Leaves are fading (end of life? but most definitely from mistakes I made in feeding not enough).is my window opening or already open

Ready to harvest?
Is Lemon 1 ready to harvest? If you can tell from the pictures she has some amber trichomes. I haven't flushed because this is sooner than expected, what should I do? Lemon 2 is mostly cloudy, should I start to flush her?

How to Trigger
30 years ago I grew a lot under HPS and have just recently gotten back into it. One thing we always did was to turn off the lights for a 24 hour period to supposedly trigger the plants faster. I learned this from the person who taught me how to grow. Has anyone heard of this?

Harvest time
Hey you all, do you think I should harvest her now or a week later? I want a more up effect than relaxing. Please check the trichromes if you can. Thanks a lot.

My outdoor Sativa, is it ready to be harvested by the end of August?
This unknown strain was given to me by my auntie, though, it isn't really my first strain, as i got it in a vegetative state, I didn't germinate it. We planted it in February and my friend told me, it should be ripe by the end of August. Should I give it more time than that?
