@Rogerm562 Thank you for this. I am not quite how long is left before harvest since this is my first time ever. The plant had 8-9 weeks flowering time and I assume i should add two on top of those for flushing and so...that is based on my reading/research. But i am never sure off course.
it’s really really hard to get information from basic google research because you can read something that says do or don’t do something and read another that says the opposite. There’s too many myths out there and misinformation you almost have to just take what you read with a grain of salt and kinda learn Yourself from trial and error in some aspects.there is multiple multiple different ways of doing everything the info you find on the internet is just so... loose and inconsistent. Best advise I can give is to take all the advise you can Kinda with a grain of salt and do things that work best for you. Sometimes the best way to learn is the hardest... trial and error. This is my first grow but I already have a lot of basic knowledge since my dad has grown All my life.. so I managed to pull off my first grow season And grow some phenomenal herb. Just got a press to make some live rosin and I can’t wait lol. Sorry if I’m rambling I’m high as hell off some prem buds I had to cut early from catapillar damage. Def don’t regret spending some time salvaging all the non damaged parts of the bud. Lol good luck man that harvest itch is one hell of a bitch but it’s worth disciplining yourself and giving that extra time to completely swell and finish up. Especially if you want Strong terpy Smoke. With that being said. Keep an eye on the trichomes and the pistils. The plant will tell you when she’s ready. no need to guess or assume.

Another pointer that I learned from experience in terms of pests, specifically catapillars. Keep a close eye on your buds if you see any small black droppings anywhere, or browning of sections of a bud and sugar leaves. Or actually see a catapillar... remove and execute that son of a bitch ASAP and be on the lookout for a fuck ton more.. That’s a sign that you have catapillars eating your buds. I spent the last 2 weeks every single morning and evening with a pair of tweezers plucking them from my buds. I’ve manually killed at least 50 of them between 2 plants. Lost about an oz worth of colas to those lil fuckers. With a lot of time and effort I finally got them under control. If I didn’t start doing that both my 4lb plants would have been eaten up by now.

If you ever see praying mantis around during your grow. Throw them in your plants and they will definitely help tremendously keep the unwelcome pest Problems to a minimum. And they will stick around up to the day you cut your plants down, especially if there’s a good supply of food. I had 3 small Ones that I put in my plants mid way through veg and they are still there and 3x the size lol.

@Wizzlebiz and @Moflow Gents, excuse my too many questions. This is the final one about this plant and thanks alot for your much appreciated help. Checking on the affected plant today, if you look at the pic with the red circle around the main stem and pic of the overall plant. Is this circled part actually more mold? As you see from the plant pic, it looks healthy and fine and I don't see wilted leaves or anything but I have no clue now if this is mold or not. The third pic is for comparison, which is the node from my other plant, it looks green compared to the circled pic which made me very paranoid.
I have done as @Moflow suggested, spraying all the stems of actually both the affected plant and the other two with H2O2 solution and isolated this plant from the other two.
Thank you for you input 20200922_091132.jpg20200922_091234.jpg20200922_091207_2.jpg

no need to be paranoid just check for signs every single day. If you’re not mindful youcan have an infestation that will devour your whole crop before it’s even ready to harvest.
