See if sulphur powder will dry it out ... If not,dry or gets worse in a day or two scrape off soft area and apply captan powder..keep dry ..not a huge deal but want to nip it in the bud...hopefully others may know a better solution ... Good luck ORV

I spray mine with 50% alcohol.You can buy the bottles at the dollar store already in a spray bottle.I learned this from Joel Jarvis.Alcohol evaporates quickly leaving it dry.

if its soft you should remove the soft material and then treat as recommended here.

I've dealt with stem issues from growing in a shaded, high humidity environment. The rotten brown tissue will not heal, remove and follow above advice. I also put a small fan on it 24/7

sounds like you got it in time Orv. Make sure you check it closely daily and make sure it doesn't get soft behind the scar.
