Hi veterans :)
I have this Gelato OG in final couple of weeks of flowering and i can see only one branch or shoot wilted and drooping and yellower than other, which is really confusing me? is it dying? sick? should i cut it? leave it? I dunno what is this symptom and am very confused!
Your help is really much appreciated as i need to act ASAP if something needs to happen to save this tree.

Thanks20200921_103901.jpg20200921_104037.jpg20200921_104008.jpg

Incredibly hard to tell what's going on with those pictures.

Can you get a closer shot of the bud? I'm not sure if im seeing bud rot or not here.

Check down the branch were it connects to the main stem and see if there's any mold at the joint.
I've a plant that although not as bad looking as your branch, it looks similar.
On closer inspection I can see mold at the junction were the branch joins the main stem.
Leaves on the other branches are normal but infected branch leaves are drooping but not quite as bad as in your pictures.
Or your branch is broken maybe.

@Moflow You are 100% correct man it is a mold/fungus at the stem/branch junction. I really dunno what to do now..this plant is 14-20 days away from harvest and since this is my first grow ever, I am clueless how can i save this plant :cry: .Is there some kind of antifungus that i can hit it with? Unfortuantely here in Canada, options are limited online. Or should i cut this entire cola now or what? am confused totally lol
@Wizzlebiz thanks for your input as well man..here are the good pic

This is the affected cola guys, as you can see the plant is ~15 days away from harvest. should i cut this one only? should i leave it all till harvest? should i harvest immediately?20200921_122123_3.jpg20200921_122022_3.jpg

@Wizzlebiz exactly what i am thinking...agree 100%. I know this will stun the plant for the remaining time till harvest but no other way.
Should i spray alcohol on the stem after i cut this part?

Do you have any fungicide that you can carefully wipe the stem only with a rag?

Im not sure about alcohol.

Honestly if it is not systemic cutting below the infection should be enough.

@Wizzlebiz I agree with you again 100% and that's exaclty what i just did, cut below the infection with few centimeters and then taped the cut part.
Thank you @Wizzlebiz for being of such great help. am a newbie and this is my first time ever so couldnot decide the best course of action to follow lol.
I prefered not to use any fungicide as it will be in the finished product and i don't wanna screw it since am that close to harvest.
You think i should put it back with the other plants? or should i isolate it? I wanna put it back with them in the shed at night as it gets very cold. I guess now that i have cut this, I should be good to put them all in one place? thoughts?
:D thanks again man, really appreciate this help.

I'd keep it far away from everything else until harvest. I'd also make sure I washed up well before transitioning from working with that plant to doing anything else in your yard.

Spores are a bitch.

H202 - hydrogen peroxide spray the affected area. You can get it at the chemists.
From the google - Mix 1 pint of water with 4 to 5 tablespoons of household hydrogen peroxide (3 to 9 percent strength) in a spray bottle. Shake to mix thoroughly, and spray it on the affected plant daily.
Or rub it on or even paint it on with a brush.

Same ratio as a H202 wash. Makes tons of sense.

My indoor garden gets it too, spores are everywhere in my outdoor garden so I got a bottle of...

to try on some indoor plants to ward off the botrytis. Fingers crossed, I haven't seen any budrot so far.
It's similar to a spray called Seranade.

besides your point, I think you’re further away from harvest than you think. IMO by the looks of the plant and those buds they might be more than 15 days out. I could be wrong but it doesn’t look like you’ll be fully ready in 2 weeks. If you harvest even a week too early you’re missing out on a lil extra density.. This is what mines lookin like and I still have about 10 days left

@Rogerm562 Thank you for this. I am not quite how long is left before harvest since this is my first time ever. The plant had 8-9 weeks flowering time and I assume i should add two on top of those for flushing and so...that is based on my reading/research. But i am never sure off course.

I Have H2O2, I will spray it now on the stem. I cut off the entire cola about 4 cm below. I will all the stems from below. Thanks @Moflow
