Definetly harvest if you already found bud rod in indoor grow. In this case it seems to be caused by age of plant, not by outdoor conditions. Hope that helped 🖖🍀👋

If their is rot in one ariea they maybe rot in others. mold spores spead aorund easily. I'd chop now and dry. do a good inspection and remove all rot. be generous with the trimming as the mold you see is just the "flowering" bit. its hyhe or roots go deeper.

bag it all up about 5 times or incinerate it for disposal... then break out your most rigorous cleaning SOPs and get to work. Even if it did stop there, which is certainly already has not, would you be chill twisting some of that up and sitting down...knowing that your stuff wouldn't even make it out of the loosest rec program as flower? IME, bud rot is much less so environment and moreso the touches. clean hands, clean gloves, clean blades, clean sponsor tags, etc. In a high CFM setup really getting proper throughput on CO2, especially indoors where a lung room is always automatically included even if not thought of that way, you and your instruments are gonna be the weak link in distributing spores IMO. Some strains are just like that too, stay tuned in the future. Aiming a few brain cells at that topic, it is clear that genotyping of cannabis requiring the microbiome footprint will also give us a ton of info on risk of various pathogens. Chemotyping by means of a microbiome bolstered genotype is already as scientific and as robust and as factual as literally EVER before. It could simply be a microbiome relationship which makes the plant weaker or stronger in the face of an infection.

I ran into this issue last year outdoors on one plant. I went ahead and harvested the good stuff and pitched the rest. For the good stuff I used the method outlined at the bottom of this article to clean the good stuff (to avoid rot during curing) and had no additional issues (but bud quality was poorer due to the early harvest and potentially the washing). www.growweedeasy.com/bud-washing-should-cannabis-growers-wash-buds Removing the effected buds is a good idea, but whatever caused it (like mold spores) is still in the environment and could reinfect. It's ultimately up to you. There is a product HOCL that some food producers will spray on fruits and vegetables after harvest, so you could try that, but I not aware of anyone testing this on cannabis before/after harvest (although people have used it to combat powdery mildew in cannabis for sure). Either way, HOCL would at the very least be an excellent cleaner of your tent and other equipment before your next grow. Hope this helps and good luck! Always a frustrating place to be after putting in all the work.

All you will "win" is more bud rot. Middle cola, top left bud has strange leaf underneath. Take your loses. Wash everything well with soap and alcohol , and just restart. We all been there, will all will be there ... sometimes it happens, rethink environment or your actions ( bad watering regime or touching).
