orange hairs on pre-flowering?!

hi everyone!
so I planted these bag seeds in a 10 gallon pot, and i use bio-bizz for nutrients. when the plant was 4 weeks old and one foot tall it started pre-flowering. yesterday (one week after the pre-flowering) I found 6-10 pistils placed randomly on the plant, that are large and the hairs are dark orange. the rest of the plant (two feet tall now) is starting to flower now.
what is going on? did anyone have this problem before?

I cant post pic's because of state laws being strike but maybe some one has heard about this and knows what to do?

Why can't you post pictures?
Cannabis is illegal in most countries (and states I'd assume).

Anyway, pistils can randomly appear on a plant, are you sure you are looking at pistils and not something else?
Even if it is pistils that might still not be a problem, you can check the maturity of the plant by looking at the trichomes with a loupe or scope.
That will tell you when to harvest (based on your preference (strong and couchlock vs. energetic and cerebral).

In either case you shouldn't worry.

i also have the same problem my calxys turning deep purple and dark/bright red/orange hairs dying ...and dropoing ...idk WHAT THE FUCK is happening i hope its not dying ...... but the rest are fine and growing and shit so idk...... HELP???????????!?!?!?!!?

bumppppppppppppp

there is now reason to check the maturity becous the plant is now where near maturitty. only these random calxys that have orange hair. and i guess i am a bit woried about posting pics, i dont know, maybe i will post some tomorrow and then u guys can see what i'm talking about.

o.k. so i added some pictures. as you can see the plant is clearly at the early stages but in the close up pics you can see calyxes all swellen up and got orange hairs? how could this be?!

Cant see any orange hairs in pic.

in pics 3,5 & 6, right above my fingers wherer i holed the stem- those are orange calyxes...

That is not a problem. It is completely ok that some turn orange. In the end they all will be like this. Dont worry. Your plants look perfectly normal. Mine get orange hairs all over them although they haven't started flowering yet...

They look fine to me. Is this your first ever grow? If so just take a step back & let them do their thing. Look nice & healthy, good job so far!

Are you sure it's not just the genetics of your plants?
Which strain are you growing?
Need more info to help properly

I didn't mean you should check for maturity I'm just saying that is how you do it.
Many people think the hairs turning orange is an indicator of maturity whereas it's really the trichomes which determine the maturity.


I looked at your pictures and your plants look fine.
The calyxes swell up during flowering and the pistils turn from white / milky to orange and dark orange during it's growth.
It's completely normal mate

Btw the hairs on your plants are not really orange yet, wait till' it gets a bit older and then you'll see the 'real' orange hairs

idk ? lol its from some dank jamacain bagseed, but i just got some purple afghan kush seeds cant wait that'll make a good harvest next year and ill probably experiment and cross some dank bagseed or other strain with it and make my own strain lol

ya, this is my first outdoor. till now i only got males and finally i got this female. she is developing very rapidlly it is amazing!! much faster than my indoors because the sun here is so strong in the deserts of ISL!!!

Wow, nice photos, your girls look good. Good Luck.

ur plants fine and it looks as if its starting to flower, i no what ur tlkin about bc mine are doing the same thing, buts its not a problem

mine are doing the same as well....as long as the plant is otherwise healthy youre good to go ! pistils go orange to brown over time, dont worry about it, more will form as flowering commences !

mine are doing them too
