Definetly looks like bud rot. I would throw away any of the buds that have any rot.
Did the rot happen while the plant was still growing, or while it was drying? Seems to me it happened during the drying/curing stage.
Your humidity could be too high in the drying area, maybe the buds took too...
Had to let you know this is my favorite thread at the moment on RIU
Grabbed a ten pack of Plushberry at the dispensary today after seeing how awesome yours are turning out.
No ill be working but I'm thinking of tryin to make it to the SF cup.
Hey what types of flavor/aroma does your cut of Jilly have? I used to get this Jilly Bean from a dispensery by my house and it tasted and smelt like straight mandarin oranges. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
Looking great bro, the anticipation is building, I have a feeling #3 and #4 are gonna turn out really special.
I need to check my stash, if I don't have any plushberry yet I need to grab some!
