No bud mass but some lower white hairs already turning orange?

white hairs lower on the plant are already turning orange. No bud mass. Some rusty-brownish markings on lower leaves probably from too low ph water when my ph tester lost calibration. No hermi/sac signs.only been nute-fed 2 times total, with 1/4 rec’d amount. UnderH2O’d maybe?

Useless picture. Post this question again with a clear and close up picture or 3 of the actual issues, then you might get an answer to your question that fits better than "they look ok".

Plants don't look far enough along yet to have any bud, hairs will start to initially appear along the stems, each hair takes a reading of surroundings taking Into account of available light, if plant decides there is enough light to warrant a bud site it will grow one from the little hairs sac, some will spawn clusters, some will turn orange and simply won't develop any further as possibly the light source was moved further away or foliage was too dense. When plant shifts to flower the time goes from 18 hours to 12, doesn't matter so much with autos I guess, but flowering does require higher levels of light generally speaking. Plants look good and healthy. After 4th week of flower you should have a better idea of final size, she looks like she just started flower tbh.

could be wind burn.. that'll kill pistils with exposure. spray any stupid shit on your plants lately? That too could do it. pistils shouldn't be dying right after they are developed- you are in early flower. your fertilizer and water isn't the cause unless you are spraying it on the pistils. check again for hermie, as pistils die after pollination too.

Don’t stress it homie the plants look healthy. If the ph was to low the plant would be getting lighter by now with spots. It’s pretty normal some random hairs will turn brown randomly. You most definitely on the precipice of the plant really starting to flower. Your plant is starting to come out the stretch phase. I would say you plants are right around day 20 of flowering. Make sure not to chop down to early you have a good 5 to 6.5 weeks left until harvest. Always remember buds fatten up the most the last week or so during flower. If you chop down 1 week to early you can lose 40% of the plants potential. Buds shrink a lot when they dry. They will shrink way way more if cut down to early

Hi, so regarding the buds, is it normal for some hairs to quickly turn orange or brown? It's also normal that they aren't thicker yet; it just takes a bit of time. But if you're talking about brown spots, I don't see them in your photos. As @organoman says, a few better photos would be helpful. But those spots could become a problem. Rusty-brown markings on the lower leaves of cannabis plants can indicate various causes: pH fluctuations: An unbalanced pH in the soil or water can hinder nutrient uptake and lead to such symptoms. So you should check your runoff, and the pH should be between 5.8 and 6.5. Over-fertilization: Too much fertilizer can damage the roots and cause brown spots on the leaves. Again, check your runoff, and not just the pH but also the EC, which should not exceed 2. If both values are okay, it could also be a nutrient deficiency, likely a lack of potassium, magnesium, or phosphorus, which can cause such discoloration. These nutrients are essential for the healthy growth of the plant. So please upload a few more photos of the problem areas in your diary/question and check the points above.

hairs can change colors from too much wind or accidental pollination. the rusy brown marks can be from not dechlorinated water and/or calcium deficiency. depending on how they look (inbetween veins, edges of leaf etc.) though it could also be a phosphorus deficiency
