Should I cut this off? Harvest this plant? 2 colas are looking sick!?? It's my first grow so I don't know what I am looking at. Advice appreciated.

2nd from the back on the left. I did have issues with the autopot overfilling to the point of leaking on the floor for this particular plant. Might have something to do with it.

humidity avg of 50 percent. Temp Avg of 24.i have 2 exhaust fans and 2 Intake fans and 1 oscillating fan. Quite a lot of air flow but they could use some defoilation.

Yes, that looks like Bud Rot. Turn your fans off, wrap them carefully with plastic wrap to trap the spores. Then cut them at least 1 inch below the infection and get them out of the space. Carefully inspect all buds on that plant. as well as all others in the tent. Clean your scissors with alcohol before and after each cut. Then resume the grow with a careful eye on RH and temperatures. Not al plants are as susceptible as others. When you dry this plant separate the buds into nugs and dry on a screen.
 
Thanks so much for your speedy advice. I have done some chopping. It was just the one plant in the 4x8 tent effected from what I can tell. I examined each bud and I ended up throwing some in the trash as they didn’t look good at all. The rest that I cut off which seems mostly immature (to my untrained eye) is now drying. I hope to get another oscillating fan and a humidifier working in there soon. Just a bit hard to fit a dehumidifier with how full the tent is.

Surprising to me was with all that chopping, this particular plant just seems to have more bud then I expected growing. If this does finish with no more bud rot I don’t think I will be disappointed with the yield. 1 of the colas was twisted below and chopping of a few higher ones reveled them.
