Ive beem flowering my girl for like 4 weeks. No buds yet, but its workin on it and today i noticed when the lights came on one or two of the first white hairs that came up are red.
Does that normally happen to the white hairs as they get older or what?
cause im not even close to harvest time, Ive heard when its time to harvest like 30% of the hairs on it should be red or somethin like that.
could ya help me out thanks! :wink:

Red or brown stigmas is a sign of pollination. Do you have any males aroung? You may want to check and see if you have a hermie on your hands.

100% pollinated look right at the top buds real close and see if you can spot any pollen sacks or yellow bannanas they are very small.

LUDA.

You guy's plants look just fine, no hermies no pollination. The pistils do turn red/orange/brown after some time, usually I don't see that change until 6 or 7 weeks have passed, but every strain is different and yours could be just due to normal happenstance. Keep up the good work and harvest as late as you can possibly stand it.
 
100% pollinated there is not even flowers showing in this pic and only early browning of the pistils is a sure definition of pollination.
i also see a yellow pod in the pic bottom middle of the pic showing the flower/bud top.
