I get rot eventually too, but it's rarely super bad. Mostly I just cut the whole bud off and check to see if it's spread at all, and very very rarely, I'll cut a whole branch off and toss it.
20% amber is nice though! I generally won't pull until I see some, though I did whack a few Chem D branches that were more cloudy and not much amber cause I really want some lol.
We managed to find the mini microscope that hooks into the phone which is a LOT easier to deal with lol. The GMO Seedling is too tall to use the jeweler's eye to say the least.
Plants look beautiful bro, as usual
