opinions needed on flowering

Currently I'm on day 25 of flower, unknown bagseed.

Today I noticed the pistils starting to brown on alot of the buds (not the main cola though). I tried to take a look at the trichomes, I know its really early, but I couldnt really tell cause my battery died. Anyway, whats the earliest people notice browning pistils? Why would this be happening so soon? Ill try to get some pics of the buds up soon.

Any opinions are greatly appreciated.

Self pollenation can cause this,but so can a lot of other things.Check for male parts to make sure its not a herm.Anything can happen with bagseed,I had a deformed cola that cured into a perfect likeness of Red Foxx.

strange....

I had 3 males and only 1 male....however there is an extremely slim chance that they were in with the female long enough to do anything. I took them out after about a week in flower, about 2 days after i could tell they were males. any easy way to check for 'male parts' i checked under the main buds, nothin....

if ur positive there are no male pollen sacks ,then "the browning of the pistils" could be caused by the hairs getting knocked or messed with .
if one pistil dies(hairs brown) another usually grows to replace it
only go by ur trich colour on the readyness of ur plant

pretty close. I actually just moved them further away earlier. Probably like 3-4 inches?

I kinda thought that that might be causing it but I don't know why..... The buds closest to the lights are more brown than the top cola but that is just starting to brown now

Maybe....temps are fine though, anywhere from 75-82, humidity 15-25%. Temps almost always around 80 humidity 16%. I leave the closet door open and if its not really cold the window open.
