Pistols look pollinated on my auto?

jartlow · Apr 18, 2014

So I could be completely wrong but I've read/seen when pistols are pollinated they turn brown. Curious if I should be worried about my auto. She's the only one in flower and I check bud sites daily.

Just a couple of brown ones here and there*

They turn brown naturally as the buds ripen, it has nothing to do with being pollinated

I've seen that as well. Just wanted to be sure I didn't miss a banana.

Thanks

Pistils indeed turn brown/gold/amber/yellow-ish when successfully pollinated. However high humidity, heat, and overdose of certain elements (P or K, forgot) can also have the same effect. And yes, normal for some and eventually all to turn brown (die off). You should use it as a sign to at least check for bananas but doesn't look like something to worry about (there'd likely be more if that were the case). Pollen can also come from another cannabis or even a hemp grower nearby.
