first time grower. did alot of research b4 i started growing. i started with 8 plants and ended up with 5 girls. my first one that went into flowering and is on its 32nd day of flowering. she is tall and beautiful. but i noticed that 2/3 up from the baby the pistals are dark amber but no where else on the plant its not doing this. could some one please tell me what is this from experience. stinks that i have no reference to look to, since its my first. thanx:rastasmoke::rastasmoke:

if it is the pistols that are amber...with time the rest will turn amber....Well most of them...No pics because it's hard to really tell exactly what it looks like just by saying red hairs

no, if your plants are healthy why would you rape them of there nutes?! Whenever the pistols grow sometimes a few stray ones will turn amber, it's completely natural. As time progresses and the buds get bigger and swell the hairs will all start turning amber letting you know it's getting mature. As the plants reach it's peak for harvest a lot of times 80% or more of the white hairs will be amber color, but the only real way to tell when to harvest is to look at the trichomes through an at least 30X microscope.
