Pistils dying after only a few weeks in 12/12

Hey RIU.
Sorry to be posting about this again. I never experienced this in the times I used to grow years ago.
Loads of the pistils on my only plant are dying/turning brown already. It's only been 3 weeks in 12/12 and 2 weeks in actual flower.
It seems to be spreading. Pistils on newly formed immature buds shrivelling up all over the place
I'm worried I'm going to wake up to find the plant dead
Am I over reacting? Will they renew themselves or do I have a problem?
Can post more info if need be...

I read this in another thread on here from way back. It was happening to a plant that had been exposed to males. But this is my only plant. It's never been around any other. That's why I posted.
I am watering about every 2 days at the moment, but it seems to be needing it? The soils dry and the pots lights... I was using biobizz in tiny quantities at every feed but I stopped that for the last 2 waterings.

hmm i have no idea then mine are doing it a little bit but only on a couple buds i have touched . are you sure your finger has not been in contact even a little with the whit hairs ? the only thing i can think of is if you have accedently touched it
 
I've never once touched the buds but that theory makes some sense. The plant does get knocked a bit when I take it out to water it. It's in a tight cupboard that it's grown way too big for. Only thing is it's happening to buds that deep in the bush that surely aren't getting knocked. I will be more careful with it anyway... Try to work out a way of watering it without moving it...

Thanks anyway I appreciate you replying.
