Is This the Start of Mold on These Buds? (X-Post from DankNation)

Greetings,

I was planning on doing another review on a different strain/vendor (GG #4) today.

However, when I started looking closer at the buds it appears that there MAY be mold on a few of the buds. I received these within the past month and it has been properly stored.

Unfortunately, my scope is broken, but I did get some high resolution photos and was looking for other people's opinions. When you zoom in it's hard to tell if it's mold or just white hairs.

I will not mention the vendor at this time but, they are NOT on the sidebar under "investigation" and are a larger operation.

I have been unable to get a hold of the vendor and have seen a few packs land (according to feedback left on markets). Due to these reasons and that this is a possible safety hazard...

Vendor: GreenLeafLabs

Product: Gorilla Glue #4

Got a hold of GLL (gotta love trying to message on markets). Very nice customer service and very apologetic, just waiting on final resolution, I should have a final update later today.

Ewwww lol

Weed isn't my DOC so I'm curious, can you just cut off the part with mold and smoke the other part or is it going to be all over the bud even where you can't see it with the naked eye? I still wouldn't want it with any mold at all of course.

That looks like mites, not mold. Mold is usually colored, where as mite webs are white and, well, webby

oh lord. dont smoke that.

Looks like what happens when someone puts something sugary in buds for freshness like orange peels (sugar mold). Pics are a bit cloudy but could be beginning of spider mites. Either way I'd toss it and get replacement or new source.

It does look like spider mites rather than mold (still gross, but at least mites can't give you moldy lungs) but no vendor should be shipping bud like that, it's not like spider mites are acceptable in your weed. Did the listing say if it was outdoor or indoor?
