Here are some new pictures. As I said previously I was going to transplant it. So I have done it and the pot is much bigger now. The question I have is that the little hair is already turning brown. Some 3 or 4 weeks have gone when I spotted the first pistils and was happy that it was a female. Now there are a lot of bud places, but with just some few hairs in each and some of them are already brown. I thought that they will turn brown only at the end, when there is time to harvest. Is it OK or what does this mean? Will I have just some very little buds? How do I encourage the flowers to be more dense? And as I have said it is growing like outdoors - no lights, just usual daylight.

if something touches the hairs they can change also

I am having a similar problem with a few of mine. Someone told me that light leaks during the 12 hours of darkness could cause this. Also, make sure that your plant isn't root-bound (outgrowing the pot).
Your plants look fairly young in the flowering stage, so if you fix this stuff now, you might have a good harvest yet.

I'm sure male pollen could cause this. Did you remove any males or have any around it?
No, there are no males and haven't been. There was a root bound, but now I transplanted and there shouldn't be. I think that it might be due to light, cause it is growing by window and it is quite like outdoors. Not strict dark and light 12/12 cycle. But I'm still curious to find out can it be normal? Like have brown hairs for some three months and then harvest. May be there are some strains out there which do have brown hairs already at the beginning? And also those flowers are very thin with very few hairs, is this normal for growing outdoors? And yes, I checked, there have been only 3 weeks when I spotted first hairs.

I top mine prior to going to the bloom phase and still in Veg. Generally I top mine at late week 2 or early week 3, depending on how much new growth I see. Week 4 I send mine to the bloom room. I grow hydro.
