Possible huge mistake?

You can still make an oil or extract out of the good bits.
I, personally, would rough-chop/grind it, and throw it in crockpot with coconut oil, set to low with the lid part off and let it simmer for 4 hours. I’d check and stir about halfway through and check the temp. If the herb is really fresh (not dried in the least) it may take more time to cook off the moisture. If the lid steams up it still has moisture.
May be a couple little details more to it, but that the basics. My recipe is roughly 1oz. (by weight!) herb to 1qt. (volume) of oil. Throw in a Tblsp of plant (sunflower, soy, etc) lecithin and whisk in vigorously midway, to supposedly make it “fast-acting” or at least to help bind the thc to the oil (again- supposedly).
Strain out and throw away the plant matter.
I eat the resultant oil straight, usually before bed time.

I would also still dry any good bits not infected, and cure, and smoke them!
Nice popcorn nugs that should be easy to inspect and save through the process.
Just my opinion, and yeah, just be careful not to smoke mold!

Should I try and wait a week until my harvest deadline, Or harvest it all now?

Within a week the rot will have spread.
I recently went through the dance of snipping bits as they rotted, but by the time it would’ve been ready I would’ve Probably lost half of it. So, I chose to take it down. Still got some decent smoke and will have some strong oil from it.
Also, I sprayed with citric acid solution to try and slow- not sure how much it helped.

TLDR: Your call!

Those look fairly swelled and ripe enough to me.
