Burned pistils w/N recoverable or compost?

I’m pretty sure I accidentally gave high veg dose of N for this poor lady. Pistils toasty browned overnight. Nothing else changed. No others affected. I don’t know if I should keep her or if it’s irreparable & I should just bury her? She’s 4 weeks into flower. What do you think?

Why would you trash her after all that work? A little burning is no big deal, just treat her right from now on. These are amazing, tough plants, that little burned part won't slow her down.

Pistils don't go brown from overfeeding. Light burn maybe but not nute burn. Leaf tips go brown first then the tips along the margins of the leaves and the margins may turn up if it's getting real bad like from constant overfeeding.

Nothing to see here. Carry on.

Thanks for reassurance! This is the first time I feel like I really effed up a plant- my brain went to doom & gloom zone

Nope.. she’s fine. She can regrow those pistils, you prolly won’t even recognize it. That’s very minor compared to some stuff I’ve seen bud bounce back from.

I do all sorts of nasty things to my plants and they still love me. From when they are little I'm smacking them around to help build a strong stem then bend them around as they get bigger for the same reason. They look all beat up but couple hours later are standing tall again.

Like babies they're a lot tougher than they look.

Expect seeds. Look for nanners or balls.

Keep repeating, "I'm growing weed not hothouse orchids." you're fine, these plants (and even hothouse orchids), can take a ton of our accidents

She has bounced back Ty again for the voices of calm reasoning
