What can I do to save my girls im seeing signs of bud rot looks to be in early signs no brown coloring yet just the white fuzz. I'm about 3-4 weeks from harvest. Do I chop early? cut the affected area frommsaid buds and discard entirely, wash in h2o2 then reg water hang to dry with a fan? Or let them ride out till harvest and just remove the parts that have the rot on them? Not the whole plant just few of the top colas in the middle of the exterior of the bud is where it's occurring

Spray affected areas with water & remove. I would do a bud wash in Dr Zymes or something with a fungicide in it. In the meantime, treatment should be implemented. I’ve never really had to fight that battle, so others will hopefully chime in on best methods for prevention.

It's in the top/middle of the cola I cant get a better pic atm cuz they are asleep till 145pm. I will try and blow the image up and make it better quality
What?

Get in there now and cut that stuff out. It's spreading! Wake the damn plants up. Interrupting the light cycle is worth dealing with a mold situation ASAP.

Turn the damn lights on and deal with that.

Watch for purple stems leading to colas those will be your heavily infected ones,other than that try to remove infected areas and keep an open eye out. Break down larger colas into smaller buds so they can dry out quicker and you get a chance to remove infected areas from inside the cola.

Okay but do I discard the whole entire bud it's on or just the spots it has on it if it's just the exterior and not rotted on the inside, do I remove from the plant itself or leave intact and do surgery that way

It's happened to me and I chose to trash the entire affected plant. Too risky with mold toxins for me personally

Are you saying like chop the whole plant down and start the process of drying and curing while removing the areas

You can always bud wash in h2o2 then reg water or soak in 99percent isopropyl alcohol and make home made dabs with straining it and using a fan to evaporate the iso off within 24 hours in a pryex dish would just have ti heat the concentrate up and slightly boil off all of the left over iso. I seen that earlier..
