Its bud rot. Either caused by humidity or bud worms. I just had to harvest early because of a bud worm infestation. I will be prepared next year though.

I'll bet if you dig around inside that rotted bud you'll find a nice fat caterpillar!

At least cut out all of the rotted buds and closely inspect the others for pillars!

Good luck, your gonna need it!:roll:

Peace

No, not yet anyway... Maybe about a third of them. We had a week and a half take was just killer hot (104+) and they r outdoors, so possibly just the heat.

Mold? On and outdoor plant? Only about a third of the plant is affected, the other two thirds arent ready to harvast, still have white hairs. Any suggestions???

Brad,
I'm afraid it is too late to do anything but try and salvage what is left. I know you don't want to hear that but it is the truth.
Here is some info for your peace of mind about the problem and next time.
You are far from the only one hit with this and yes it sucks.

It is bud worms, I found them after clipping out the bad sections. Is there anything that I could safely apply to to plants without harming them or me??

Budworms and caterpillars are problems primarily for outdoor growers. Budworms burrow into ripe floral clusters; they also spin webs around floral clusters, although this is infrequent. They eat floral clusters from the inside out, and their activities provide a vector for a pervasive cannabis fungal disease known as botrytis or gray mold.
Leaf-eating caterpillars are less difficult to detect than budworms because they spend most of their time on leaves. They often manipulate leaves before eating them; their feeding habits include eating small sections of leaf in between leaf veins, or eating large chunks of leaf outright.
