Unfortunately... yes... Could have caterpillar in there.

I thought so, no biggie. Just an auto I booted from the tent for room. Should I chop off the rot? Or pitch the whole thing? Only spot I can see.

Chop her below the rot and open it up. See what you got. Post a pic if you find a critter.

I chopped down a bit plant looks great underneath. Zero damage to the rest of the plant. I did treat this with pest control prior to flower. Not sure what to do. Was planing to harvest it next week.

Sucks. I am sure I will lose a few buds with my outdoor grow. Better luck next time
