Pistils turning red too early?? Help

I’m in about week 2-3 of flower and I noticed the pistils on just about all my buds are already starting to turn red is this normal this early? If not what could be the cause? I took a few pics

Appears fine to me. Mine are a month into flower and the pistols are turning like yours.

So this is normal?

what usually happens when pistils turn red quick it means your plant may have been pollinated. another sign of this is the white pistils curling in and you'll see tear drop looking parts of the plant called calyxes and if they look swollen there could be a seed growing inside. if you are by hemp fields you could of got pollinated, or a rogue male or if your plant turned hermie... you may be fine but those are the signs of pollination

Nope it’s definitely not pollinated could it be from stress?

If you got alot of rain or sprayed the plants with something this usually happens. They should start pushing white hairs again under favorable conditions.

It could be natural from exposure to the elements. I also get burnt hair tips some times when I use too much PK based food.

Yeah I have been foliar feeding probably a little too often with Fox Farm Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom, maybe that’s why.

I wouldn't foliar feed in bud, its applying fertilizer directly to the buds you are going to harvest.

That’s a recipe for possible disaster

I’ve read it was ok up until week 4 of flower but I’m going to start cutting back. I did it with my last grow and had no problem at all so I wasn’t sure if it was that.

Foliar feeding just takes away from root growth and uptake if you ask me. Don't spray anything on buds unless it is an emergency.

What Gram said lol... Why not just water the roots? I spend so much damn time spraying for everything else at this stage the last thing I want to be doing is spraying more when I can just mix everything in a bucket and just dump it in the pots.

It could be stress but usually when they turn from white to red quick it means either maturity or could be stress.. if you add curling white hairs before they've turned red that you either have s waterlogged or pollinated plant.

Disregard kushking, it's the spray, just water the plant normal, at the roots.
