frustration

Is this bud rot?? I'm talking about the darker colors deep in the bud. I'm getting really frustrated with this grow. I'm considering tossing it and taking at least few months off

I can't tell if that is just the leaf color or not. It looks darker like it could be bud rot but it has more of a purple hue to it, which is a fairly desirable trait in many cannabis strains. I don't see any obvious signs of caterpiller poop on the leaves. So, that would leave humidity and lack of airflow as a potential cause. How is that in your tent, fairly under control? Can you kind of open one of those buds with your fingers? If it is mushy and goopy, then its likely bud rot. But if it is firm and splits open, it might just be the color of the strain. Have you grown this one before?

bud rot will show up if conductions are right it affects more than the buds if you suspect bud rot look at the stem you should be able to see a huge difference in appearance ,now when you do see bud rot you can pull some off and whats inside looks powdery ,from what I can see your ok no rot that I can see ,look up problems on GWE data base

Thank you for your responses. I'm not growing in a tent but rather in a spare closet. Humidity has been at 45-55 and temps have been stable at 75-80. I admit that airflow has not been very good until a couple of days ago and yes, I have NOT grown this strain before (Charlotte's Web auto)

Temps and RH look ok. Good airflow is key...how are you venting/moving air in your grow closet?
