Hey I'm new to growing and have an issue. Looked everywhere and couldn't find an answer.
So back when my plant was in Veg I was trimming dead leaves and accidentally cut one of the stems which made a hole. Probably should've cut off the whole stem but didn't. It got swollen but no other problems occurred. Was growing three plants outdoors. Moved them indoors now as it's cold.
I was taking a close look at my one plant (don't know the strain, bagseed) which is now in flowering for some time and the middle of the plant, the stem looks wooden. I will attach pics. I removed the plant from the others. Cut the stem so I could see inside and it's light brown and mushy which has now turned to dark brown. Some of the leaves were curling up at the tip and dark grey color as well as some are curling down. Had issues with gnats, aphids and these white little bugs which I've removed affected leaves but didn't want to treat as they're almost ready to harvest. My main issue/concern is: is it safe to smoke the buds? Thought is was fusarium wilt but roots look healthy and white and stem is not red. It's brown on the inside. So should I cure it or would that just waste time and I should just throw the whole thing out ?? Would really like to know. Any help is much appreciated and sorry for the huge long paragraphs haha

Sorry to say but that stem is done for. There is just too much rot to bring this back. I would cut the whole area out of your plant completely as soon as possible.

Yeah I figured as much. I cut the entire plant at the base of the stem. Then cut and trimmed and hung the buds. I'm just wondering what caused this, you said rot? Possibly from overwatering? Just want to make sure this doesn't happen again. Do you know if its safe to smoke the buds or just throw out everything? Thanks for responding and mentioning the rot

It got infected, I am pretty sure there are no diseases humans could catch from pot.

It doesn't look like overwatering. Is that plant outside? Could be a boring worm of some kind......

Any time there is damage pathogens can enter.

Where you trimming dead leaves and cut the plant and it got infected or was it infected before you started cutting.

I just wondering why the leaves were dying in the first place. Was it infection or another problem.

If it wasn't infection figure out why the leaves were dying.

Paragraphs would be nice also. Its hard to read a block of text and many won't even read it.

Actually if the plant has fusarium wilt and you smoke or ingest can make you really sick. So that's mainly what I wanted to make sure that my plant doesn't have it but someone mentioned rot which is what fusarium wilt looks like.

So does anyone know if the plant that I posted pics has fusarium wilt? The roots look healthy and white and stem is not red but brown.

Couldn't find anything about the inside of the stem being brown.

Any ideas??

Yes sorry again for the block of text. I don't know how to edit/fix the post as this is the first thing I've ever posted so any help would be much appreciated and thanks for pointing it out.

Yes the plant was outside the whole time up until about 2 weeks ago. When day and night started becoming really cold, I moved them inside. I was thinking it might be an insect of some sort caused by not removing the stem that I accidentally cut. I will look up boring worms

I was trimming some of the lower leaves that weren't really getting much sun and we're dying from that reason I believe, not infection cause there was no sign of any infection that I could see.

The stem I accidentally cut (which was a stem that branched off the main stem), got swollen but nothing else occurred. That was back when it was beginning stages of Veg.

I sprayed my plants with natural insecticide I made from organic garlic, cayenne pepper, mint and a drop of soap with water almost every week.

As well as I had my own compost that I mixed in with the soil when I repotted and added some to the top soil every month or so.

The stem that looks wooden(main stem) is at about the middle of the plant and didn't look like this a month ago.

The plants were at my family's then just got them at my place (recently moved) two weeks ago and when I took a closer look I noticed the wooden stem.

They watered the plants then moved them indoors without any fans that's why I'm thinking maybe fusarium wilt ?
