well, it COULD be bud rot, or a small spider inside your bud, or a small infestation of spider mites that will get bigger, or even insulation or a cottonwood-pollen that stuck to your bud. Share a picture and we can help figure it out. bud rot definitely is a risk, as you found it near the brown leaf, but bud rot for me has always started as a dark mass inside the bud, not white. And Powdery mildew, our other favorite fungus, usually doesnt start inside just one bud but all the way up and down where fat buds rub the stem (or white patches on the leaves obviously) But dont start chopping things out until you figure out what it is,every year in my outdoor i find 2-3 spiders that built a home in my buds and were helping them to stay healthy (from moths aphids etc)
It wasn't a dark mass inside you just caught it late. Bud rot starts out fuzzy white. Ask me how I know.
Dude you hadn't even seen a picture and you're telling him to chop?
Can you read?? I said to inspect the rest of the plant and if he sees bud rot he needs to chop. How is that bad advice ?? Without a picture and with his description I suspect bud rot.
I said what I said and stand by it 110%. Don't give out advice or diagnosis based on zero facts. You've seen nothing to indicate anything. Conversation over. Good day.
Guess its my fault the op didn't post a pic of the problem. Lol. Only "facts" we have are what the poster said.
Do you have a picture of what you're describing?
I've had bud rot before my friend.
Okay I was a bit harsh in my original post. It didn't sound as bad in my head but reads bad. I'll own that.
My guy not you, the OP.
Likewise brother. No hard feelings. Just trying to help. Still think its bud rot from what he described and again thats all we have to go on. Cheers.
Realized that after posting. My bad.
