First time grower. Outdoor growing Royal Jack Auto. Removed small amount of bud rot and 1 week later no sign of it returning but buds have started to darken around pistils and some sugar leaves too. Does this sound like anything to worry about ot just maturing towards harvest?

Looks fine to me. Some plants get purple from genetics and some can get darker because of cold. Usually the genetic ones the purple starts at the middle and from the cold on the edges of leave and tips of calyxes, so you have probably just had cooler night temps. It's from anthocyanins in the plant. Hopefully the budrot stays away, just keep an eye out for leaves in the buds turning yellow. It almost always starts inside the flower and a leaf or 2 dying can be a sign that the budrot has started attacking the petiole and flower.

Purple colouring is normal when night temps are cool, especially outdoors. This is a natural process of an accumulation of pigments (anthocyanins), somewhat normal and not a cause for conccern.
