Welp, that didn't end the way I had hoped… (leminal.space)

I guess I messed up during the drying process. Such a beautiful cola, too, but I forgot to take a pic before I noticed the mold - at which point I just started peeling away chunks at a time ☹️

What a bummer.

I'd guess that there was already mold in the bud at harvest. It looks like a lot and I think it takes a few days for mold to spread that much.

    You think? I have no idea - the plant seemed fine, and I didnt notice it until I opened it up, so I don't really know. I'll have to keep a closer eye, and maybe break the big buds up a little more before drying, just to check.

    Thanks!

    As soon as they develop buds I check them every day for mold. In both of my grows I discovered mold one day before the planned harvest and had to throw away some of it.

    When the buds grow denser I even bend the bigger ones a bit to check its cores. I do this with rubber gloves or skewers because it's so very sticky.
