Personally I never had anything funky like that on a stem of any of my widows, if I did I would scrap that shit off with a razor blade, give it a light feeding with a balanced nute and keep an eye on it. Rest of the plant looks good I wouldn't get too worked up.

Rotting is my hypothesis because of the description of being soft and tender but now I'm leaning more towards fungi infection.

Which is why I would remove it, if it's a healed stress wound then nothing is to be done. I'm know how rough I can be with widow I grow from experience with the strain I have. I also realize that just because we call them ladies that roughness is not excluded from the botany of the plant. I've had accidents where I've created alot more stress than a razor cut, and with extra time and care healed properly. Just my 2 cents, not trying to flame.:peace: (note: the op is not in flower)

I mean it's not necessarily decomposing I meant more like there's some large species of fungi that is thriving on your plant.
