You have bud rot for sure, and looks like its spreading fairly quick, IMO cut off the bad buds, spray with Water/peroxide, bag up bad buds and burn them sanatize everything before even touching anything else, including changing clothes, from catapillars or mositure,do you see any pillars or black poop spots from them?

Brown Bud rot requires removal completely.
Time for a William T Sherman (WTS) operation.
It spreads quickly to all available.

Hey thanks for the quick response! Yes I’ve seen some.
I’m outdoors and about 27 plants but I’ll go cut those now

The whole plant ?

Vigalince this time of the yr for sure, I check twice a day, had enough issue last yr to learn it can get bad fast, catapiller seems easier to cure than moisture to me, but don’t deal with much catapillar issue here.

If catapillar Montery BT and PureCrop1 help out!

I have some captain dead bugs on hand and some venerate cg as well

Is the dead bugs recommended this late into flowering

You can use Captain Jack’s up until harvest. Just plan on doing a bud wash in peroxide at harvest. I would add “Safer Caterpillar Killer” to your treatment regimen as it uses BtK instead of Spinosad and hits different pest vectors. Both are safe to use.

I suspect worms too. Because of the randomness.

Thank you!!
-Would you use the safer caterpillar spray along with the dead bug ?
I’ve located the 16 0z spray didn’t know if available in bulk.

There is a couple of options there for safer caterpillar killer
-there is a caterpillar concentrate 2

There is one with bt concentrate
And then just the concentrate
Opinion ? I didn’t wanna do anything to damage my plants

Think the conentrates are for if ya using a pump sprayer which I do, and mix my own instead of buying water already mixed in!

Absolutely… that was my intentions just didn’t know about the 3 different concentrate options lol

Any should work. Use alongside the CJDB.

Yes, get it now before it spreads to other plants or internal to this plant, would be good advice, especially with 26 or so remaining.
Find the rot resistant plants using elimination of any rot shown in a plant.
Same game plan with my outdoor.

Will do. I had cut off all the bad buds and burnt as recommended. Is it still safe to wash and consume the remaining buds that look alright ?

Good question.
Let me know the answer you choose.
I would consider wash and bake for decarbing and brownies (not lung consumption-combustion).

That would be your call, I had 2 Afghan plants last yr had rot cut out bad, washed hung,dried, cured, all good for 3 months then the jars went bad, I will not risk it again… All it takes is to miss a spot.
