Bizarre smelling plant

This plant, other than smelling like my dirty clothes hamper, is probably the least sticky out of anything I've grown. The trichomes are almost strictly on the buds themselves. Very few are found on the "sugar" leaves or fan leaves if any. The buds definitely have them, as you can see but the odor, it's been consistent since it even had an odor and only in flower. I used Athena IPM before week 3 in flower to avoid the PM issues that I would have definitely gotten here in Michigan. This fall and for the last couple weeks the rain and lack of sun has been relentless. Temps have been in the 50's and no obvious signs of stress. The pistils are still mostly up and white, all fan leaves are still green and most of not all trichomes are cloudy. Do I have an invisible mold issue or does this strain just suck eggs? What do y'all think? For those that plodded through this boring post....the second photo was from one of the last sunny days we had, October 3rd

Well you know if trichomes are cloudy it's ready to harvest but that pic with pm on leaves and weird smell might be rot. I don't want give bad advice but iffy on if smokeable. To late now you probably already chopped.

I don't see the PM, but I would do whatever you could to get it at least another month of life! Just cause it doesnt smell crazy isnt a big deal. Cooler temps can hide the smell and the fact that it is half way done you have some time left! I would focus now on figuring out how you can get it across the finish line with minimal rot

does look like PM to be honest, cut out all rotten looking bits and around them too, if the plant has much of that rot on it, do your lungs a favour and ditch it, chalk it up to bad luck and try again

I put a little time but that's it. No big loss, it was a neighbors bag weed, thrown on ground years ago. I did try to avoid pm with it with Athena but, Mi fall has been nothing but wet.

I pitched it all and got some seeds from Greenpoint Seeds. Will see what happens. Thanks all who weighed in. I didn't see any value in it, not worth the risk and wasn't getting any better as time went on. Let neighbor take the rest of the plant that remained in ground.
