Bud Rot. cut the tip? or rip it all.

we have gotten our first frost, officially. the last 2 nights have gotten down to -2 or -3 degrees and the moisture its leaving on my buds has made them start to rot(only one so far). harvest is like a week away and i dont wana harvest early and compromise potency, but i dont wana lose my crop so..... i gota do something with the rotted tip.
should i just cut off the tip? or should i rip the plant up and harvest it early?
will the stress be to much for the plant to keep growing if i cut the tip?

post your opinions.... anything helps.

look down into the affected area and cut it out...be careful not to let any of the infected tissue fall back on your plant or itll be reinfected...budmold starts in the stem and works way out.if in doubt bag the bud and chop it off...the rest of the plant will finish fine without it...good luck...

I agree, the plant will be fine but you have to remove the mold fast. Good luck..

Def cut it off

Thx for the advice guys. i cut it down and the mold dident show any more, but then it froze for the last 2 nights..... im just lucky they budded early this year and it was acceptable to harvest them early.
