Kind of looks like mold..... Are all the buds looking like that or just that one/some of them?

That’s what I’m thinking. It looks bomb. If ur nug looks good then u did great. So icy.

They are trichs but they dont look glossy and clean like I've always seen. seems to be a white powder on them..... Maybe he is having a camera issue?

Just a small portion of them, is there other ways mold can grow besides temp and RH? Those are always tuned it just right.

mold needs a specific environment.
I aint seeing. The issue with these. They look pretty good. Got several weeks to go, but i don't see anything but sticky bud.

I can agree, my environment is on point, a thought that just came to me is the fan probably has dust on it and go figure I take a look and it sure is dusty

Thank you I really put my all into it, I love the plant and everything about it, I’m still just hoping it’s frost though lol, I did add a new line of additives this cycle, didn’t replace anything just added more to the feed mix ( Aptus USA ) perhaps this is the results, these are also some good genetics coming from a seed junky wedding cake cut

Its ghetto as fuck but works really well......
Filtering the air going into your grow environment is important. Also, are you running a humidifier? The ones that "mist" also pump all the minerals into the air that leave a white residue on everything and clog carbon filters.

Hey if it works roll with it! I have a HEPA filter for when I bring fresh air in. I do use a humidifier but the location of it tells me it’s not that because it has a bunch of plants to pass that don’t look like this before reaching this area of trichomes that have the frosty look

PM in particular thrives when RH changes a lot, not because of a high RH. Is your RH going up and down with lights on and off? That would be a big cause. I would have it tested, PM or mold can be extremely bad for you
Cheap test yourself is to wash it, but dust will come off that as well

People think those shitty blue filters dont catch anything because you can see through them.... They are so wrong. Those blue fiberglass strands grab anything that touches them. Ever worked with fiberglass insulation? Shit sticks to everything and will have you itching for days. I like the way mine is because i legit just stapled them to the tent and when i need to change them, rip them off and staple new ones on. $2 filter changes. This is my last run with this tent. I might figure something better out for the next tent.
