Is that mold???

Guys I need quick help..
I just finished my sour diesel auto (4th grow ever) and I've never come across mold issues. Can your please tell me if that's the case by looking at the pictures? It's hard to see but there are fine dust-like grey threads and I can't tell if it's dust or mold..
It's the top bud, and I already removed one bud pre harvest. I immediately chopped it off an hung it up for drying.
If it actuay is mold, what to do next to save the rest?
Help much appreciated.

It's not eaten into lots of plant material but looks like the very start of it. If it was me i wouldn't sweat that...but im not what you call a model citizen either

Looks like a tinge of botrytis(bud rot)
So probably been there since you chopped imo. I woildnt sweat it.
Definitely bud rot.
But I wouldn't smoke it.
I'd check all the other buds that haven't been harvested (or have) and dispose of any that look dicey.
There's so much weed out there. Not worth smoking bud rot.

Well it seems that the bigger somebof the bigger buds need to be removed as well. The smaller buds look ok. But it's still quite hard to differ whats mold and whats dust. I think I just keep drying and wait what happens over night.
Would you dump it all @FidelCa$hflow ?

99.9% likely that none of it is dust. Why would you have dust in your buds?
It's bud rot.
I would trash all affected buds.
Clean your tent thoroughly before your next grow.

I didn't use a tent this time I did freely in the room. I guess the problem was ~60%rh the last 3 weeks..I took out all the infected buds an kept the ones still looking good. Lost around 40%. Luckily it was only one plant..or unfortunately. Thanks again
