Hermie? Brown Pistils in week 4

technics702 · May 17, 2023

I'm noticing some flowers have brown pistils but the plants are otherwise healthy heading into week 5. Are they herming? I looked with a magnifier and don't notice any bugs or mold or anything. Temps stay between 72 and 80 with humidity between 40-50%. The only thing I can think of that has changed is I replaced the light in the tent with a scorpion diablo x, perhaps its too much too soon? What's odd is that the nodes that have the brown pistils aren't at the top closest to the light.
Thanks for any advice/help!

Other than that little bit of nute burn you have, it looks fine to me. Have you adjusted for that? The brown leaf tips?

Edit: I’m not aware of browning pistils being a sign of herming. This is a sign of herming!

I have backed down the EC a bit yes and dimmed the light a bit as it was hitting between 40-45DLI.

Yeah, I couldn’t get close to 40 DLI without burning my plants. I’m finishing this grow back down around 25 DLI (day 63 since flip). But then, I’ve had just about every issue possible with this grow.

I think you’re in fine shape.
