first u need to identify the type of mold before you start any treatments ect, i.e is it grey mold aka botrytis, which i bet it is, or powdery mildew , ect also will it be ok, depends on alot of things, pics would be a good start,,,

It sounds like bud rot to me. But pics would help.It depends on how you have cut and disposed of the affected bud. You need to cut well below the lowest affected point on the bud. Place a bag over the bud before cutting to limit the amount of spores flying all over your room. Any bud that has been in contact or very close to the affected bud should also be removed. It is almost certain they will have spores on.you can cut, dry and smoke any adjacent buds, as long as the mould has not taken hold. It can seem drastic but it is better than losing your crop or spraying chemicals on it, Which may or may not work. If you spray and it doesn't work then you will still end up doing wot I said. How old are your girls?
