Hi guys...

I just got the the end of drying 6 plants. 2 of.my plants suffered from visible boytritis and I got rid of them.

Whilst trimming some of the remaining plants smell musty....

One in particular kinda looks like the buds are going more brown than I expect. This one had quite crispy leaves. Should I try send cure it anyway? Here's a pic of a bud from the plant....

crack it open and look really carefully inside with a scope. Look for any fuzz or threads that shouldn't be there. It can be hard to see sometimes.
Thanks... I did that before and it looked fine... its just the smell and the color is looking more brown than the green I expect.

It's in the auto cure buckets now.... all the sweet smelling stuff in one and the stuff that doesn't smell so great in the other....ill really find out after Xmas...

This! Mold typically starts in the inner part of the bud closest to the stem.

Also it helps a ton to look over them in sunlight! Much easier to spot mold

Also when you crack open a bud do it in good lighting and see if there's a little puff of smoke that comes out of the cracked bud. Sometimes you can't see the mold in the bud but when you crack it open it let's off a tiny amount of spores I guess they are but it looks like a puff of smoke.

Nope... none of that... no dust... no visible spores under scope
