I had a MASSIVE spidermite problem so I sprayed all my plants good with natural insecticidal soap, including the flowering ones. I know that "usually" you shouldn't spray anything on flowering plants, but I did it after reading the instructions and it says the soap is all natural, non-toxic and can be used up to harvest.
What's more, they say that the insecticidal potassium soap actually turns to potash, so it becomes a fertilizer even. I also sprayed outside and the plants got dry very quick, so mold etc. from spraying wouldn't be a problem. After 30 mins I put the dry plants back into my greenhouse.
For example, Neem I would NOT have sprayed since I know that oil is bad for the buds, the THC...
So the pistils are now turning orange, and I want to know whether this is "bad" in any way.
I didn't get much information on the net about whether brown pistils are actually really a negative, in fact it looked to me as if SOME people were harvesting based on the colors of the pistils alone (which is silly, this doesn't mean a thing, I always harvest by checking on trichs) - and those people sprayed insecticidal soap, their pistils also turned orange and then those folks HARVESTED because they thought that their plants are done already. And then they said that the soap spoiled the harvest. (Which of course is silly, the soap MERELY turned the pistils brown).
So, short: Despite the orange/brown pistils...does it mean anything? Said differently: Should I worry about the brown pistils?
