Powdery mildew is what I'm thinking.

I agree it looks like powdery mildew. this could be due to RH being too high.

Look again, the pic in the back has dried splatters on it, mildew wouldn't look like that. It really looks like a dried liquid (diarrhea bird crap)

I don't see any dried black anything. That's powdery mildew.

Re: is this MOLD!?!?
I've unfortunately dealt with a fair bit of Powdery Mildew and it never looked like that.

To my eye that looks like a splash, maybe nutes or a spill of foliar spray?

Is it on all of the leaves?

Powdery has a more 3-D scaley/flakey look to it.

Re: is this MOLD!?!?
I would say try to clean it off the best you can (behing careful not to hurt the leaf) and see if it comes back. If yes, than you either have a bird with a vendetta or it is mildew. If no, than I guess you will know it was a freak occurance. Good luck!

Re: is this MOLD!?!?
Dusty white or light coloured coating on leaves and other tender plant parts points to powdery mildew.

Powdery mildew is a fungus that spreads by wind, and prefers moderate temperatures and high humidity
Growing conditions such as close spacing, densely growing plants and shade can promote disease development.
Generally, powdery mildew is not harmful to a plant but can decrease vigor and aesthetics.

after taking a second look at your pic and without looking through a haze of bong smoke i would agree with Duckhead
