Pistils turning amber too soon

iamgrodan · #1 (**permalink**) 07-30-2008, 10:59 PM

Hello all,

I am new to this site and fairly new to the game.

As the topic says, pistils turning amber too soon, and I'm stumped. They seem to start turning very very light amber on a few pistils at approx. week 4 or week 5 and progressively spread. Now, I have no idea what sort of symptoms or causes could cause the plant to start finishing soon early?

Any ideas as too why this could happen?

They aren't "finishing early". Some pistils just tend to amber up faster than others.

quite normal mate would'nt worry

some strains turn amber around the 3-4th week from 12/12, some turn later.

dont go by the colours of the pistols too see if your babies are ready ,get a magnifyer x30 & check the trichomes too see if milky or milky/amber

dont worry bud, alls well

peace..................

I've had success with them before and they never turned amber so early. Possibly because it was winter and they were getting hammered by fresh cool air. Im not sure, but it seems they finish/ambering early in the summer.

I know they truly dont finish, the growth of the buds seem to slow down due to the pistils turning amber

nah definitley nothing to worry about. Like motor said, go by the cryystals. Also, if some of your leaves are blowing against the pistils ive noticed that they seem to turn amber when the are being touched by the other leaves.

trim the lower useless leaves that are wilting/discolored
