Mold or Heat?

[La Brigada]

can anyone help me pinpoint this? ive been having gnats in the room, as far as im aware this is the only thing bothering them right now because i cant get rid of them..that being said it may also be a deficiency but i do not know..shes around week 6-7 flowering and these brown buds have been popping up here and there...plus its got some seeds in there too...but hey im not picky...as long as its smokable im down with it, but im not down with mold and other life threathning shit...ive been trying to find info but i cannot find anything...anyone care to help?...today i freaked out and cut all the weird looking nugs from the plant so i cant really take any more pictures, i only found one in my computer

I cant speak to all your issues but can maybe help a little. In regard to the gnats, a plant in flower should have a healthy enough root system to overcome your gnats, unless you are terribly overrun.

In regard to the deficiencies, for week 7-8, plus I don't know your standards, some deficiencies are to be expected and I think it doesn't look horrible, though I would have treated by this point. I expect u must be close to maturity, so feeding now would be pointless.

It des look weird, maybe it's how u trimmed. I don't however see mold or heat issues.

agreed with ^^, at week 7-8 of budding, decay is normal. brown buds are not tho.
theres a couple of issues here that i see:

pot has a priority during its BLOOM cycle. seeds>buds>fan leaves
why? well the fan leaves power the buds, that are essentially for making seeds. they want to make seeds. they will focus on seeds if they can. if theres no seeds (pollinated buds) they will focus on buds. if theres not enough nutrients coming in from the roots, they will suck some out of the fan leaves.

Now, you said gnats? yea they are a pain in the ass. at week 7-8, you might as well just chug thru, harvest, clean thoroughly, start over.

mold? whats the temp/humidity light? if you think theres molding/rotting/fungus, simply lower the humidity (introduce fresh air, remove sitting water), and raise the temperature (so any water is evaporated faster)


tip: take more pictures. of the bugs, of the entire plant, of the lighting, of the soil, and what ugly buds you trimmed, and lower the light for the pics. its so bright its hard to see whats going on there.

 

[*BUDS]

Cant see any mold and the buds are too sparse to go moldy, also they are riddled with seed. Is it a hermie?

all of the plants are growing good, slow but good...so i know the gnats are not it, i just mentioned it because if it is a deficiency then that would probably be the cause, i know the plant should be experiencing deficiency but these buds didnt turn brown overnight..its been a couple of weeks like that...thats not healthy..i also know its hermie, maybe thats why turned brown..because those buds were full of seeds...and i mean full (the ones i snipped off)...so maybe thats natural, they just browned so they could die off and seeds can get to the ground? this is just me high trying to be as logical about it, but ive been breaking my head for a while and i cant find anything similar so i finally decided to post because lethal mold thought kinda freaked me out...
the temps are usually around 75-80..i do not have a humidity meter so i have no clue, but the cfls are really in there so humidity shouldnt be an issue since i dont spray them and i water every sunday and wednesday always..
heres pictures of the whole garden because the lst makes it hard to take a picture of just the one plant and i dont want to be moving them around to much...(its the pot against the back wall of the closet in the middle (in between the orange 5 gal, and my royal ice ) (all the close ups are from that plant too) she has 4 colas

What's the rust colored stuff I see in pic 9?. I was owned here a while back on the subject of gnats, and learned in the process. I assumed just b/c I didn't see any leaf damage, they were harmless when the larvae actually feed on roots. Your watering schedule is encouraging them, they love moisture. Try using mosquito dunks, sold at Home Depot.

what you see on the soil in picture 9 is one of the attempts at the gnats...supposedly they cant stand cinnamon ...did not work.
