HELP autoflower pistil tips turning red 2 weeks in

hello my northern lights auto flower plant is about 2 weeks into the flowering process and i noticed after i started to do some LST on the plant the pistil tips have started to turn. only the tips i don't even have a full one turned yet but it happened in a day so i assume i am doing the training to late and the buds weren't ready to just be thrown into that much light or is this a normal thing? i have no clue this is my first grow so i obviously think the worst of any situation that presents itself. any help is greatly appreciated. the buds are still small and the top ones all still have white hairs its only like the 7-8 bottom branches that were exposed to the light but again instantly noticable.
 
the plant is more tied down now like in the last pic the other pics are from like 2 days ago. the pistils havent really gotten any worse its still just the tips. i guess it just so happened on that day so i was freaking out lol image1(1).JPG image2(1).JPG image3(1).JPG image2(2).JPG image1(2).JPG
 
heres a close up. i just meant the LST in general and overall plant health. but this is th closest i could get and keep it good qualityimage1(3).JPG
 
here is my Auto NL on week 4 of flower. Notice the orangeish color?

checked out the grow journal. looks good. how did you get yours to start stretching out so vertically? i only started the lst a few days ago. i noticed the top stem was growing almost an inch a day but the rest were kinda chillin staying down and bushy thats why i started the training in the first place. would you recommend it or no? im just looking for a bigger yield. i know the training will keep it short but whats the better option here. i have 2 other plants that aren't autos growing in there as well im gonna switch them over in like 1-2 more weeks

LST on a budget lol. I literally ancored my branches down with cut up hangars.

I would push the fan leaves down and pull the future "bud sites" out allowing them to grow UP and catch up with the colas. If that makes sense.

after i started LSTing i noticed they were getting bigger....



then they turned into this.....



before i tied the 35in whore down...




bud porn (kinda lol)
