Please explain this.
Will these buds be smokable after a trim?

Surely:
Some new growers often mistake watering days as feeding days. If they keep feeding 600 ppms to a tiny plant like we see under 80 watts, of course its going to burn. Instead of a (Feed, Water)FWFWFW schedule, try a F,W,W,W,F schedule.
Now, say this plant was healthy and in a 1 gallon pot, with 19 other healthy single top/cola plants, under a Higher wattage light, with minimal veg, doing a SOG. Feeding those 20 healthy plants will be way different from feeding this unhealthy plant under less light. I hope that makes sense...Cheers

Ah okay. I thought you were saying in general you can't feed a small pot high EC. I had two plants fill up a 4x4 while growing in gallon pots during my last grow. Plus I was using Blumats, so were getting a constant feeding. I did have to back off the EC a little, but that was because of the lack of runoff.

It was experimental grow. Mistakes were made. Lives were lost. Entire villages burned to the ground. I still awake to the screaming. Anyway, those plants did well. A couple others had major issues and ended up looking worse than the OP's first pictures.

Oh. Damn. If they make it to harvest it will be a Christmas miracle.

Also I'm not really trying to be a jerk. I just feel for you and the plants. I've never had any that looked that bad, but close. Have you started the next run yet?

Will I smell bud rot

It doesn't have a smell, no.
The first sign for me has always been going to pull a leaf off and it just comes away with no resistance. Then you investigate a bit further and find the tell tale grey colour.

You're welcome mate. I hope I'm wrong and they end up ok.
If it was me I'd pull ALL of those dead leaves off (including, and especially the ones in the buds). Keep vigilant, and harvest them at the first signs of rot. You can always make hash or butter if the buds end up bad.

Bud rot is very easy to spot. After you've seen it once, there will be no doubt if it's bud rot or not.
Make sure you pull the large buds apart during harvest/trimming, and look inside. The bud rot starts from the stem, from the inside out. You have to look all the way inside, everywhere. If it's on the plant at all, it will probably be on more than one site.
It starts as a browning of the flowers and stems; when it has progressed it will be grey mold, maybe slimy, and webbing. Usually you can see it from the outside because the leaves will be curling, turning brown, or look sickly. It will also show by fan leaves turning yellow from the top of the plant down.
When you spot it early, it will be easy to remove during harvest. Don't throw away entire branches because of it.
