Trichomes or Mold?

Hi guys.

I've just finished my second grow, and everything was going fine until I noticed a little change in the appearance of a number of the buds. There seemed to be a bit more white now, and under x60 magnification I see cloudy heads branching off of thin hairs, similar to cloudy trichomes I had seen pre-harvest, but much cloudier and with a much thinner stem.

Here are a few pics, thanks for the help.

Looks fine fromw what I can see... Enjoy the smoke!

OH SHIT - Hold up - Looks like mold to me - Trash it unless there is some wash for mold...
I've just read it's dangerous to use and possible major like death...

I think I see some mold/PM. Its looking pretty fuzzy and not gritty like trichomes.
It doesnt look like bud rot, but more like powdery mildew was setting in before harvest.

thats disgusting. thats mold.Pm if your growing your screwed.
everything will need to be trashed.
if you have no experience with Powdery Mildew, your in for a rude awakening.
It spreads like wild fire and infests everything. Im terribly sorry, its happened to me as well... and was hands down the worst gardening experience i ever had.

if this stuff dissolved the mold and mildew then the buds could still be used to make keif or water hash.
