Is this bud rot? Part 2 broken open bud

I posted some pics of a cola that looked kind of strange to me yesterday, and today I cut it down to break it open and inspect. It does look like there are tiny white fibers in the middle on the stem and such. Is this normal?

It's still kinda hard to tell over photo I had to completely break open a nug to find the rot when I had it

Doesn't look good i'm afraid....How does it smell? I would say its bud rot from looking at the pictures but it should smell foul i would think i haven't personally ever gotten bud rot so i can't really comment on that part of it.

Mold,,make hash from it scoop the shit that comes to the top of the water bucket,you need to really break the buds up small though,in box frenchie on Fb,he makes hash from buds with mold in from what he says on hunters of dank.

I would not advice smoking the flowers with that in bleach the grow area,it's a bit like pollen it can travel mold,so bleach the effected area

Making sure that he cleans everything,really well is important now,or he could be in the same boat next grow,water and bleach,mist the whole area with fans on ,allow to dry and repeat,use gloves around the bud,

Feel for you bro but you just have to move on and think lesson learnt next,check your humidity,you are wanting it at around 50% flowering
 
I think this happened because I misted to try and combat spider mites a couple times. And I misted when I released lady buds right before lights off.. I think that brought the humidity up and brought this on. The affected plant is one in the back corner of my setup with the least air flow.. so it makes sense.

Since Im in a SOG setup with like 13 plants, should I just harvest that whole plant? It has 4 colas and only one looked like it had bud rot// but maybe I should cut the whole thing down and check it now. Also, 2 of the 13 plants in the setup are damn near ready for harvest... they have about 90% cloudy triches.. should I just harvest those ones now?

Yeah that's bud rot alright. When you see the small bud leaves turn brownish and wilt you know there's bud rot inside that area. You just pull out the mushy parts before they spread. I would also wash the buds with deionized water after harvesting. That'll clean off any mold spores and also any of the stuff you sprayed on them before. If the water is room temp the trichs shouldn't break off much.
