Is that...Mold?!

So, I am about to harvest 3rd of my 4 trees and then I saw this:

I found that shit on 3 buds... Not really worried but it will be such a shame to throw them away.

Thanks in advance.

That is indeed mold, you can still harvest the plants as usual just make sure and cut that stuff away.

Bummer!!!! I hate that shit! If anyone has a great way to control it please share... I am going to try milk/water today and see how long it stays away. Greencure last's about a week but jacks up the flowers so it is a no go at this point!


Edit: Wrong thread, I was high...

More air flow and lower humidity is always easy thing to do indoors, spread or stake the plant out to let more air flow in between the buds can help also. They make sprays ("Garden Safe 3 in 1 soap" comes to mind) that can be used, claim they can be used up to the day of harvest, but I normally feel trying to not spray and let the plant grow at least a month to help the UV rays and plant material to naturally break anything in the "safe sprays" down... it might be "safe" but who really want's to test that theory :lol:

botrytis mold! you can cut it out and save the top and bottom half of that bud, but get rid of that mold ASAP or it'll spread to your other plant.

Looks to be the beginning of bud rot. Look closely at your other ladies, it spreads fast. Do you have a sulfur burner? This will kill the spores and active mold so your next crop doesn't develop the same issues. How is your humidity? I recommend 35-45% max....JAS

The thing is that I grow outside and luckily for me, that plant was about 1.5 meters from other 3. So far I didn't spot the mold anywhere else, Im just going to throw moldy buds away, I got a pretty neat harvest so far. Not a big loss anyway ^^

yup bud rot... starts from the inside and works its way to the outside of buds.
not much you can do but cut it all off, and hope it doesn't spread anymore. :(
