Is this mold?
Hey guys. I harvested and dried and everything seemed fine, but while I was snipping the lady up for curing I discovered these white fibre like looking things. Now I’m worried if it’s mold. It smells normal. It’s only on 1 or 2 buds.
Related mold question: if I leave it for a few weeks and the it doesn’t change significantly, can I be somewhat sure it’s not mold? Because mold would spread?
Thanks a lot!
Could it be carpet sheddings?
That almost looks closer to hair or string than anything. Does that give any ideas?
No. I’m thinking some kind of pest-related thing now
Did you by any chance use trellis netting?
Nope
Opuntia vestita?
Wow that looks really similar. And I have a small plant of something similar but that doesn’t produce enough of that stuff. But thanks for the guess!
Oh I didn't notice the sub we were in, mites? They leave webs around and dry up well as long as not too many.
It don’t look like mold, and I’m not saying it is or isn’t.
BUT, there is many different type of trichomes actually, some do look like stringy/webby. Google can be your friend here use “different trichomes” as a stepping off point.
The other Q though would be do you have pets or work around them? Could be pet hair getting in the goods.
