There is this small divit in the bud that seems like the start of bud rot but I'm not sure. I hope I'm overreacting.

Well bugger. This is the only stalk as I didn't top it.

I know the pot is too small. I did a lot of things wrong with this plant at the start and left if too late to start changing things.

If I cut of the upper part where the mold is, would the lower nodes survive or is the plant a goner?

Personally I'd throw the whole damn plant out and start over.

Well shit, I thought it was larger, it’s just mold sporelates, it spreads quick. If I was you , I guess I would try to get surgical, spray the affect area carefully, and try to cut it away from the main stalk. I mean really, what ever you are more comfortable with.

And yes that pot is small, but I have some 2footers in 8oz cups. Don’t do what I do. Smaller than a solo…..

I've saved buds by spraying with a 50/50 mix of 91% Isopropyl Alcohol and RO water (or bottled water, distilled, etc)

It works if you catch it early on. Just soak the buds with the spray, then put a fan on it immediately and try to keep the room as dry as absolutely possible from now on. A dehumidifier and a quality air filtration unit wouldn't hurt, either, if you've got them.

I cannot attest if this is the best idea, but it worked for me in the past, and I've smoked buds that had developed a very small amount of mold before. I didn't get sick and I'm still here, so... Up to you, I reckon!

But generally people freak out about mold (even though mold is all around us and even on our own bodies frequently) so you may just want to chop the infected parts off and save the rest of the plant.

It may look like this after, but that is totally fine. It’ll be a “butter face” type of deal.

Looks like the mold I had last run when hang drying one got pressed against the wall of the tent and had no air flow. Ended up tossing half the plant just to be safe

A spray of hypochlorous acid will work, without damaging the plant. Alcohol destroys trichomes. Like totally destroys them.
