so I have two plants that are flowering and probably about 3-4 weeks into flowering. I got my magnifying glass out and looked at the pistils and one plant has brown tips on the pistils the other one looks normal. I got some pics let me know if this is normal.

I would worry more about changes to the leaves for the most part. The pistils will sometimes show a variety of colours.

Pistils can get brown tips for a variety of reasons, the ones you have to worry about will affect the entire pistil, leaves or the whole plant (at least the ones I know about). The ones in your pics look fine.

Are you spraying your plant with anything? This can cause pistils to prematurely brown
No I haven’t sprayed anything on them at all. Yes some rain hit it I usually like covering them up before it rains because I like controlling the water lol but I have no clue why one plant is fine and the other isn’t and they’re right beside each other? I know the one showing brown tips is closer to the fan and gets hit more with the fan?

Well whatever the cause being... its nothing to worry about. They seem healthy otherwise :)

Rain absolutely can. Yesterday was nearly all white, with scattered aging pistils. Today, after heavy rains, this.

That looks like week 1-2. This one is 3-4 weeks in.

Do you worry about the yellowing and leaf drop? My plant looks a bit the same, very lime green :D
I did for a bit and kept giving heavy doses of nitrogen but the stems with the buds are nice and dark so I could care less about the other leaves at this point lol.

Haha for me the same..I will give some compost tea tomorrow and see how it goes. Otherwise I am sure we will be happy in the end :D

Nitrogen is good for growth, too much N at the end/in flower may not necessarily be a good thing. They like more of the PK at the end. Tbh I use a 5-10-10 fertilizer for the whole season.

Sometimes it means to much fertilizer. I heard if you flush with plain water for a week they'll turn white again
