    Seems strange that only one of my plants seems to have got this white fluff growing on the buds n leaves. If i split a bud upon its on the bud but its brilliant white. Will up pic if u want to see.

    The plant has just transistioned from clear to milky so almost ready to cut. Is this white fluff growing mold ? N is it gona safe to smoke

    Sounds like mold to me mate, pic's would help greatly! In the first instance chop that bit out asap to stop it spreading.

    And noooo don't smoke mold, shit can make you sick.

    Doesn't sound good to me, not gonna lie, might be wrong though, really need to see to say for sure. Didn't you say when you split open a bud it's all white inside?

    Definitely sounds like mold - you're not going to want to smoke it.

    Just scraping what you see off isn't going to do much good. For what you can see, there's a great deal more spores that you can't see.

    How much of the plant is effected? It's possible you could just remove the effected buds and let the rest finish, but if the area it's in is too humid there's only so much you can do. It's very important to pick mold-resistant (well, all-around resilient are best outdoors) strains if you're growing in higher humidity environments.

    IMO, the best thing to do would be to make hash (after it's dried), and then make edibles with that. Don't smoke that stuff, though.

    Mix a half tea spoon of dish soap and a table spoon of baking soda to a gallon of water spray the plants all over on top and underneath but don't do this until you have cut all the white off and after you have done all this wait until the next day and as soon as lights come on spray the leaves with distilled water once a day to prevent it coming back

    Cut it down, gently submerge in a distilled watrr & peroxide bath then make hash using alcohol as a solvent. One of the only salvage methods i have heard of. Jorge Cervantes has a video on youtube with a brief methodology.

    White fly can be highly contagious and spread to all the plants you sure it ain't that ?
