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!

      there are three kinds of trichomes in cannabis plants that I know of and they all look like trichomes whereas this here ist just long fibres of something without any visible liquid or other features. They’re only on 2 buds of the entire plant. It’s so clearly not trichomes. No need to downvote my first comment. I appreciate your help.

        Umm… maybe that’s why I said there is many different kinds of trichomes and do some research…?

        Not all trichomes have bulbous heads, some look like webbing, and mutations can happen randomly on plants.
