Well even if you cut it all out, there's still spores all over that plant. I wouldn't be using any type of sprays that late in flowering. May be time to just chop

I would harvest. That stuff spreads like wildfire. You can lose yield faster and faster the longer you wait. Cutting out the bad ones may work if the weather is going to be sunny and dry. However, if the conditions that triggered this continue on, there's no hope.

make sure when u harvest that u don't dry any rotten parts of the bud... u don't wan't to smoke that shit! when u cut the moldy parts away clean ur tools with alcohol so no other plants (when u got more than 1) gets infected.. I wouldn't put them in an airtight container... lots of air and low humidity.. hope u get some out of ur harvest.. I have the same problem atm.. fuckin mold!

as said above.
cut out all of the infected area. dry and cure as you normally would.
I'm not sure how much you are harvesting, but if possible mark the jars you cure the plant in so that you can keep an extra close eye on your buds.
you could go one step further and use a hygrometer during the curing process. I've used them my last couple harvests and love'em. It's nice to be able to know the humidity in containers you cure in without even opening the lid.
