If you can stabilize the camera, If you can't stabilize the camera don't worry about all this. Set it as close as it will allow, set the timer to ten or more seconds, so there isn't the slightest bit of shake don't even let the fans blow on it. Try zooming in first with the camera as close as possible, then as close without zoom. I have a micro camera that can work as a pretty good magnifier, but I dropped it. It was an awesome camera. I haven't thrown it out hoping it can be fixed. Panosonic TZ1 only 5 MB with a big glass lens. You want to see your trichomes as its a personal choice when you stuff is ready. You don't want to see them falling off. https://honestmarijuana.com/trichomes/

That is a garbage strain/pheno. You got snaked by a crappy seed mill, it happens a lot these days. Either that or the excessive heat screwed up its growth pattern making it look like hell. It might be smokable but it sure won't be enjoyable. How long will it take? I don't know probably 2 more months.

How do I prevent bud rot for next time?

Sorry for laughing, but what the fuck did you do to that poor thing?How do I prevent bud rot for next time?
Consider it a learning experience, but you have multiple issues. Bud rot, the plant also tried to reveg at some point and that just helped the bud rot come on quicker. Do more research and try again. Until then make a bonfire.

Imoe fluffy strains tend to be more prone. Besides generally being larger colas, there're plenty of crevices for spores to germinate in.How do I prevent bud rot for next time?
Try something indica dominant and fast flowering. With tighter nuggets. But slender colas, rather than fat.
If you have any fruit trees / plants, be extra vigilant about picking up any dropped fruit. Don't leave the nozzle lying on the ground if you use a hose and don't spray the plants directly.
Be super on the lookout for anything even resembling rot and remove + a little extra to be certain you got it all. Cut it right out.
Never compost it! Always bin it, or burn it.
Consider a fungicide of some kind. (i'm still yet to find one that's effective)
But there do seem to be plenty available, at least in the States. Find one which doesn't leave a residue, is non systemic and doesn't have a holding / waiting period.
If all fails, consider a different spot if it's an option. Indoor is a great option too, because you can regulate the environment.
Sorry about the bud rot, feel your pain. It's not worth trying to save any of that. It's far too gone.
Edit: always make sure your hands and equipment are clean, before and after every piece you remove!

Yep, and top it so the buds are smaller. Dense fat nugs are way more susceptible to rot.Imoe fluffy strains tend to be more prone. Besides generally being larger colas, there're plenty of crevices for spores to germinate in.

It's honestly a tough call on topping them. Depends how wet it gets. But yeah, for sure 100% ^^^

Sorry I didn't realize this was in the indoor section. I always have outdoor on the brain, my bad. But same general advice still stands.
Being indoors, if you keep the humidity below 50% at all times, with some air blowing around, you should avoid it pretty well. Be really careful about humidity spikes once the lights are off. That's probably when it's getting you.
Trouble is the source and where it came from. Because it usually isn't too far away. Within metres generally.
You might have dragged it in, or the source is probably close by.
Could be from anything potentially. Fruit indoors whatever. Even compost / worm castings if infected material went in there.
Controlling your environment is your best bet at prevention by far!

I thought it was outdoors too from the pics, but I didn't look close. It's not just you, and I'm an indoor grower.

Happens to most people at least once. Environment is the key: if you are serious about this hobby, get dehumidification (below 55%) and AC (72-77 F ideally). Also, a fan running 24/7 and 20/4 light cycle helps as well (at least for the autos I grow). Better luck next time.Oh shiat, are you guys serious? It will get me sick?

Some plants are just completely useless and that's one right there. It molded the hell out on top of being a really bad pheno. Just throw it and start over, don't even think about smoking it, it's more mold than bud anyway. There's also no visible resin, so it would be like smoking some leaves that fell off a tree. First you need to get some good seeds and then you need to grow it properly, but without good seeds to start with it's pointless. And you need to grow several seeds, not just one, because most of the plants will have bad buds. You'll be lucky if one in 5 is good enough to be worth growing. You have to grow them out and see which ones have good solid buds with lots of resin and then take cuttings from the bottom of that plant and root them, they'll go back into vegetative mode in several weeks after rooting. Or take cuttings from all of them before flowering and mark them so you'll be able to keep growing the one that turns out to have good buds.
I know this isn't a new thread but wtf!!!! How in your right mind can you even put a picture of that fucking mouldy ass plant and ask should you harvest surely something in your brain thought that shit don't look right!! Damn I don't mean to be harsh but that shit right there is a massive lack of knowledge... What did you do???? Tbh the pictures where never great you was posting and it looked hermie straight away... Something in my brain says you harvested smoked that shit hahaha
