Does this look like bud rot at all? First time outdoor grow

not clearly bud rot, which is normally moldy and fuzzy in appearance, I think what happened is maybe reveg, and the old calyx's just started to die off and turn brown, this CAN instigate bud rot when it happens inside big dense buds.

Is there any steps I should take right now to prevent it or should I just keep an eye on it to check for mold?

I would try to remove all the old growth that's turned brown if possible. It will only cause problems later if it gets encased in bud and has a nice dark moist environment to rot in.

Spread open the cola and look inside. Generally the first indication is sugar leaves turning yellow and dying like overnight. If you can easily pull the yellow leaf out, bend the cola at that point and look inside.

That plant looks like it's in reveg.

it is bud rot. Bud rot is "fuzzy" in the early stages and progresses to look like op pictures.
you are not wrong, but this is just not what I would call bud rot, since its only a handful of preflower/calyx, and its more likely that the reveg just allowed those preflower/calyx time enough to dry up and die on the plant.

I agree with this... those leaves have necrosis, which will happen in bud rot after the fungus grows at the petiole or stem and “cuts it off”. However, I don’t think this is botrytis.

But I’d sure peel those colas apart and see.

I first noticed the brown a couple weeks ago and it hasn’t spread to any other parts of the plant the sugar leaves look fine, it actually did go into re veg about 3 months ago and started flowering again 6-7 weeks ago

Possible I suppose.
