What exactly IS bud rot? Is it a specific pathogen, it is just a general fungus infection, what are the common signs? I have heard a lot about bud rot but I'm not sure what it is describing other than bad buds. I had an unusual "something" on one of my GG4 colas, although there was no purple discoloration or other issues. It was difficult to look at... by that I mean that it's appearance seemed almost holographic. When you went to touch it, there wasn't anything there but when you looked into the bud again, the whitish holographic patch seemed to come and go. I have never seen anything like this in 35 years and I'm not sure what the issue is. The buds seemed fine and there was no trace after drying... only when it was still growing/flowering. Any idea WTF this might be? It looked a little like a small patch of mold buried deep in the bud, but my Rh was around 30% and I had no issues on any other plants or branches.
