Why are my buds rotting...?

I have an outdoor grow, sour diesel x g13 haze, its into its 6th week of flowering.
3 days ago i had to snap off 3 large nugs since they had mold growing on them&i didnt want my entire plant to die. well today i went to take a look and now the very top of my plant (the nicest, biggest bud thats every growers favorite to sample first) had it, and i had to cut it off. If I keep cutting off these buds like this, i wont have any bud left by the time of harvest.... I think i got it all off this time.
How do i prevent mold/bud rot from accumulating on my healthy, live girl? plz help i hate to keep snipping her of her beautiful buds!
btw: It was cloudy/drizzling the past 6 days

Doesn't look like mold to me... looks like you have some purple in your genetics.. cold weather can trigger it...

EDIT: another thought- if it's been raining for the last 6 days.. that's no good... can't help with that bro..

and yes - the last pic is questionable I did miss that last one.. I looked at the first 2 and thought... that's not mold.... third one I see the rot you mean. I don't grow outside.. so I can't help on that.. sorry.

I found out last night my Super Lemon had mould, saw couple of little white clumps and at further inspection could see colouration as these pictures show, it changed on the bud from a green to more of a reddy brown. I have some Blueberry going at same time and this looks ok still.

Im pissed because its one-two weeks tops before I would've been choppin it down anyway.... So I spent all hours of the night last night cutting and trimming and have started drying it out, ive missed flushing this stuff unfortunately.

Is it smokeable? In a Joint?
