    Default Answered: Bud rot / mold while drying - how bad is it?

    Hi,

    I was dry-hanging about 400g with an active dehumidifier nearby and a vent blowing air around the room, but not directly on the buds.
    The humidity was always between 50 and 65% - I thought it'd be better do dry it slowly and let them hang for 7 days. Unfortunately I was a bit too unobservant and found out, that the dense buds had mold in them
    I immediately threw them away and looked closely on all the other buds as I cut them off the stem. They smell pretty good and I can't see mold, but most of them have turned a bit yellowish around the stem.

    I already looked on them with a black light (I've read you could see the mold better) but couldn't see anything.

    I hope you can tell me how bad it is - if its nothing, or if I should throw them all away or make bubble hash of it maybe?

    Thank you for your time. 2 pictures attached. I can add more or some microscope pictures if its any help.
    peace

    Its fine buddy, mine often look like that, its where its kinds sheltered from the elements and has a diff look. I like to think the yellow is actually thc in the glands thats leeched out some into the vegetable matter. Either way worryv not and pull that big fucker out the bin.
