Ditto, you are ok, this is what happens as the bud matures - and no, you are not even close to harvest time.

Don't worry about shots from the peanut gallery- it is normal and they are looking nice. Good luck with the rest of the grow!

theres nothing wrong with them. those white hairs have a job and that is to reach out for pollen. when they dont get pollen they shrivel up into a red hair the same kind u smoke on good bud. now on the other hand if it gets pollen on the hair it withdraws into the calyx and becomes a seed. it takes a male to pollenate a female and make seeds. just some understanding for ya. good luck

Yes it will still have pistils but browned and shriveled/died.

if they are shriveling up and dying early then this is a sign of pollination and usually starts on the lower buds (pistillates) first as the pollen drops from the top cola on to the lower pistils but more pictures would help before i say anything else on the matter.thanks everyoneThis isn't my first grow... I just haven't seen the pistils brown this way before....like someone put a lighter on them... I know they aren't anywhere near harvest time yet.. hahaha I wanted to make sure there wasn't something wrong..
(good luck).
