Hey guys, I think one of my Colas is molding a bit and I need to know what to do :(

The plant has been flushing for 3 days in DWC so i could chop it all now and begin drying.

Here are pictures:

So far I haven't seen any other mold. I've chopped the affected Cola and chucked the moldy bits. Should i cut it all and begin drying?

Any help and advice would be much appreciated.

There is no saving the rotted parts
Increasing air flow and monitoring humidity next time , but harvesting early is never a good choice
Pitch the rotted bud and finish for now

EDIT: "Flushing" is for your toilet

Thanks so much mate. I think I may have got the rot really early and its only affected the one bud. So im going to chop it all now and dry it with lots of air flow! I'm only harvesting a day or two earlier than what I planned so no big deal.

Should i chuck the whole of the rotted Cola or just the rotted section and close parts? Obviously any visually identifieable rotted part is going in the big but I'm a bit worried about spores :( maybe I'll just dry that Cola somewhere else...

Just cut the affected part out...the rest will be ok, and I would let it finish after removing that one bad bud...and you may find a little more rot more at trimming.

Yes you need to increase your airflow and improve humidity...Consider yourself lucky it's not powdery mildew or you'd be throwing it all away.

Using isoalcohol extract method?

I use Everclear, and boil off the alcohol in a rice cooker. Kinda like the Rick Simpson method. Kinda hard to dose, which is why if I yield 8 ml, I'll add 80 ml of coconut oil, mix it up good, and place in 30ml dropper bottles. 10:1 ratio. 6-8 drops is good for sleep, 12-15 drops, and you are high.

I was planning to give this a shot with all of my AVB and trim. With this method will I have to worry about a little budrot being amongst the trim if i just let it dry in a bucket?

No... the alcohol, heat and filtering will kill it out, take it out. Use a clean tee shirt to filter out your mix, and discard the material. Filter the mix twice with a coffee filter before you put it in the rice cooker. If you make some good product, this shit is strong!... raw, about a grain of rice size will be good for most people. Thats what I was saying earlier about a 10:1 ratio with a coconut oil cut is that its easier to dose. You can easily get TOO much when trying to dose raw.
