However, following exposure to pollen, only the tips of the pistils turn dark, whereas the “stalk” remains white.

Yhats good stuff Chitty, do you have a visual aid so one can see.

I just figured it all turned a color if pollination occurred. Tips, that just nice to know.

@Mosca This is the best pic I have seen


From an article on Pollenated Plants.
Take note that this is not 100% guarantee its pollenated. Other outside factors can do that too.

@greenngrower
I see something in your pic that concerns me. This black spot in the center looks like rot or mold or insect damage. Take a closer look to see if its ok.
