I think your light may be too high. What kind of light and how high is it?
 
its cfl lighting i have 5 26 watt bulbs right now i would say its a good 2 ft above the plant i did have it closer about a ft bout seemed like the leafs were getting to dry so should i just ignore and lower the lights any way?
 
I would say 2ft is too high but I don't really use cfl. I would go down to 18in
Hopefully someone with more cfl knowledge will chime in.
 
Hey fellow members I saw yesterday my lady had white
Hairs also saw some were already amber is this normal going
To get a magnifying glass today any advise thanks
 
How far along is she?

Going by your last picture, if you wanted to you could use the LST method to tie down the main stem, only once mind you, and help promote the internode branches to reach up to the top.
This would slightly lower your plant which would then give you the option to lower your light as well and not risk burning the top of your girl.

A single tie down on the main stem can do amazing things to bud production. I would give it a go if she was mine...
 
Hairs can turn red during flower but more white pistills will still carry on revealing themselves.

From what I've seen, around half the colour change on the pistills happens during the dry and cure stages.

Nothing to worry about I wouldn't have thought if the are just turning a reddy/brown.

Or do they look burned/singed?
 
no the pistils dont look burned i see two that are reddish brown and the rest or white my pk was planted on 4/2 and popped up on 4/4 so she is about 30 days old i will post a pic in a few. and how would i lst her i dont really like messing with her at all due to this is the farthest i have ever been
with growing.
 
What I do is run my finger firmly up the main stem, god, this doesn't sound right lol. and when I feel the place on the stalk which has quite a bit of flexibility I mark that as where I want to tie it down. Then I basically loop a noose/slip knot with some thin string around that mark and gently ease it down with my hand while keeping the tension on the string and then use some decent tape to stick it down around the edge of the pot.

I was crapping myself the first time but you soon get a feel for it it you use you hand rather than pulling on the string.

I wouldn't worry about the pistils tbh, it's all part of the cycle, many more white ones are bound to keep shooting up.
 
If it looks much the same as your last picture upload my guess would be just above the halfway mark. Have a look through some of the forum pages for visual reference.
