Hello, long story short: my balcony grow went smooth with no issues and just before harvest a hurricane hit and even though I took precautions, dropplets fell on the main cola and when cutting, I realized there was an inch of the cola that was rotting. I cut the chunk off and took no other precautions, the other colas are just fine, now drying. I'm tempted to spray Southern AG GFF on the dring buds as a precaution. Never have done so when drying, so dont know if it is adviceble. What do you think?
Bud rot on a chunk of a cola, how to treat?

If there’s no evidence of the others having the infection then just dry as normal.

My best guess is you will find more when you break down those buds
That is pretty common

Keep an eye out and I strongly recommend a bud wash of everything when you harvest.

Dude, you're fine. Too late for a bud wash and you definitely don't want to be spraying any fungicides on drying bud. Mold happens on outdoors. Make sure your drying conditions are right ( I'd be at 55 % humidity) and you shouldn't have to worry about any additional mold growing. If you find some more, mist the moldy bud lightly with plain water and snip that as well as the stem it was up against. Gl
