My first grow I ran into mold in my last week or so of flower and I tossed the 2 colas that I found mold in, harvested and dried everything else. I haven't seen mold again until today. I was trimming, and only at the very end noticed a small patch of mold I could see with my naked eye. It was a tiny tiny patch, and not spread all over like I had seen it the first time I ran into this. I could only find that isolated little bit in the cola, so I tossed it. I went about checking all of the dense colas and found only tiny spots in a few. When I could spot it, I spotted it easily enough, but where I couldn't find it, I looked over and over and never could find any, worried I was missing it. That stuff got tossed into a Grove bag.
Here we are now: I'm wondering if what I kept is even good? The mold where present, was very small amounts, and only noticed after harvest at dry trim. Should I just assume the fan running during the drying probably blew it everywhere and everything dried in that area is now suspect? Then again if I consider my first encounter with mold, there was much more, it was during a grow (so not as far along), and I removed it and was able to dry just fine. But that was drying without it present (to my knowledge), where now I've potentially dried with small amounts.
I'm concerned with having only found it after the drying, did it spread during? Or am I OK with having just tossed where I could find it? It was only small small amounts that you really had to look and dig for to find. I'm also worried, that since where I could find it, was so small, maybe I missed some? It's in a Grove bag now, is this something that once the cure is done I'll be able to look at and tell if it was bad or will it remain hidden like it has until today?
I'm not convinced one way or another that it's OK, which leads me to want to toss it, but someone may be able to tell me that I'm overreacting or that it'll be obvious at the end of cure if there's a problem.
Also my first time not just reading but actually posting.
