Black/brown hairs

[Bree]

I've been growing my plants for about 3-4 months now and so far they've been keeping very violet/purple hairs. I recently went to check on them and now they're black/brown (it's been about a week since I last saw them) Are the hairs just dying or is my bud being affected? Should I harvest?

What strain are you growing?

I'm not sure tbh. Saved up a bunch of seeds from my stashes and decided to start a grow. Only came from very strong and very good bud though

How long have they been flowering? In later flowering, you smetimes get a turnover in pistils but if it is newer to flowering, I would make sure that you are getting enough ventilation to prevent bud rot, which dying pistils and discolorations are a 1st sign. To me, the bottom picture looks like the plant is re-vegging with the one leaf growth and stretched bud... either that or foxtailing, which usually occurs during extended flowering. It's kind of hard to judge from the extreme closeup... a pic of the whole plant would help a little. Is in indoors or outdoors?

They've been flowering for the past 2 months or so. It's an outside grow. I have 6 plants and only two of them have started doing this. The lower branches have the dark hairs but the top isn't so bad

Has the plant been moved at all ? She looks like she re-vegging from being moved from sun to / darkness/shade back to sun ect.

Not moved but we did have sh*tty weather for a lil while. Central fl

I'd be really wary of bud rot then.. :\

The black hairs are a general indicator.
