Having to chop early because need to sort my environment and can't atm and the rot just keeps attacking so I'm chopping all the healthy bud that's left around 2 weeks early when I've dried I know I can make edibles and hash but is it also smokeable product ?

Of course it's smokeable, just don't the same taste or potency as what you'd get chopping at normal time. As long as you dry and cure it properly, it should be perfectly smokeable!

Have a look at your weed with a loupe, figure out what mold spores look like..
Then you make the decision..

If no mold grows while drying can I smoke it ?

It's not the mold it's the spores you can't see. You can make edible but you should not smoke it. If you inoculate your lungs with mold it can come back and hurt you later. If you can see mold you can be sure everything in the room is infected.

Pulmonary fungal infections are terribly hard to treat in the critically ill. There is nothing you can use to get rid of spores that will render that bud safe to smoke. I hope you don't smoke it.

Would a bud wash not work ?

No, you'd have to use something that is so toxic it would be worse for you to smoke. In the hospital we can't kill spores short of the large pre-vac autoclaves, ethylene oxide and other fairly toxic methods. It's just not worth the risk, no matter how heartbreaking the loss and losses like that hurt.

Pneumonic fungal infections are a battle.

I got a lung infection ten years ago.... I've never been the same....

If you wanna take risks, try a peroxide wash or something.

I would be dropping the humidity as low as possible too.

When I had bud rot, I would don science goggles and use a tank sprayer and bleach to sanitize THE WHOLE HOUSE.....
