The plant in your first pic appears to have powdery mildew(middle of pic,right leaf,white cloudy spot)
I didnt see any rot, your buds have a little bit for that to really set in.
You need good airflow to help prevent pm. I think pruning up some leaves in rough weather, a little later in flower is beneficial (to allow airflow) through the plant.
There are numerous sprays you can try to clear up that pm.gl

Thank you, I’ve been using Neem weekly and I’m lucky to have been catching a breeze on this hill but I’m in the humid south. I will go back and check for more PM in the morning. I’ll have to get some green cure or baking soda quick.

Don't use neem on flowering plants. It stays in the buds and can cause health issues.

Not that early into flower, you can use it up until they plump up which will be a few weeks. Half the people who grow, like me use neem meal, so it's in the plant anyway.

My last Neem spray was 10 days ago. What is the Neem meal for?
@SchmoeJoe, I’ve read to be careful as even tho Neem was organic, it could still cause health issues. I had decided that I would stop on that last one just for caution. I’m just so fearful of losing these this late in the game.

Neem Seed Meal is the remaining material from Azadiracta indica after the oil is extracted and then becomes a well-decomposed soil amendment used by gardeners as compost for plants requiring rich nutrients. It stimulates growth of all plants and microbes in compost and soil.
You should be ok and it ain't that late lol, looks like you have about 5-6 weeks left.

As I understand it neem oil is the actual cause behind cannabis hyperemisis syndrome. I personally don't know anyone who uses it once flower formation begins. That includes a number of people who own their own licensed rec farms.

Sounds like blaming the neem for whatever other garbage was in or on the plant. People used neem as medicine for thousands of years.
Neem History
Neem was earlier used in households for giving bath to newly born infants, protect people from insect bites and also indigenously used to protect a number of plants as neem contained insecticidal properties. It was also widely used to cure skin ailments.
Gradually the fame of this 'wonder tree' spread to western countries and after a lot of researches funded by internationally acclaimed organisations like UN, neem and its products were accepted for their therapeutic value and having no side effects in US, UK, Australia among others.
Neem tree has miraculous powers and scientists are beginning to unfold the powers and potential of this revered tree. It is now being cultivated and grown in a number of countries to fully tap its potential and used on a commercial basis.

As far as the bud rot question, I don't see any. Here in Wisconsin I wouldn't worry about rot until much later, close to harvest. It's pretty clear to see if you are obsessive about your girls like I am.

There's nothing in it's history about smoking it.Sounds like blaming the neem for whatever other garbage was in or on the plant. People used neem as medicine for thousands of years.
Neem History
The history of neem tree can be traced back to the ancient Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro civilizations in India. The medical practitioners of that period studied a variety of natural occurring plants and trees having therapeutic value and neem tree was one of them. The earliest indication of neem tree being used for its medicinal properties in households began nearly 5000 years ago. Neem is said to have been widely used in traditional systems of medicine like Ayurveda and this is also mentioned in earliest Indian scriptures of medicine- the Charak Samhita and Sushruta Samhita.

I was trying to be helpful, if you're going to obsess I could care less lol. It's never bothered me but I always used it to prevent, not treat after an outbreak of something I wouldn't want to smoke. Everything I ever read on smoking bud with neem says it's harmless.
