So im nearing the end of harvest, and a tiny bud (maybe just under a gram) has the beautiful amber tinge to it(the first bud to have the amber color strong)
As i touched it, I noticed it was really dry... so i cut it off! The bud is completely dry and looks like its ready to smoke.. Is my plant rewarding me, with this fine piece of already dry bud or whats goin on hahaah

I guess it's possible that the stem to that particular bud quit taking in water? Maybe that branch died like a large fan leaf does time to time. Either way it sounds like your girl loves you :)

m8 its not bud rot is it? when u pulled the bud off did the stem seem fluffy or moist at all,, rot starts on the inside and will dry ya buds out to crispy but only in bits at first, it also gives th ebuds that cured look.. yank a few shade leaves around the buds if they come off real easy look closer, i hope its not mate but u need to check,, some pics will help

Ya I guess that particular node halted nutrient transfer and finished early. Lucky you! You get a nice taste test before chop-chop!
