Looks like it… crack it open and you’ll see brown and white fuzz inside and spores can release.
Only fit for the bin now. How did you dry?

You can make canna butter with moulded bud, the heat sterilises the mould. You can't smoke it but if you turn it into some biscuits you won't taste the mould and you will get high af

Don't be a snob. Not everybody has the luxury to afford to bin bud that still has a use.

And I'll be here saying Jesus Christ I told him to eat the mold and now he's ded... Seriously it shouldn't hurt you but eating mold is a risk, small one but a risk.

You do understand that if you cook your weed in butter it will kill of of the mould spores and it 100% harmless?

There's no risk. It's basic science. It's sterilised if it's held at about 185 for 5 minutes.

Decarboxylation is 215 and most edibles say to heat to that.

Unfortunately the spores are not the biggest concern when it comes to ingesting mold, it's the toxic compounds (mycotoxins and aflatoxins) that remain even after the spores are "killed." Those compounds require much higher temps to break down, like 250-300 celsius (450-500F), at which point all the cannabinoids in your weed would also be vaporized...
Some people are more sensitive to mold than others, so while it might be fine for YOU to ingest those compounds, it might make the OP sick depending on their body chemistry.
OP, I would pitch that stuff, looks like the mold is pretty evenly distributed throughout so not really salvageable at this point. Next time don't try to rehydrate it, bone-dry weed will still get you high just fine.

[/QUOTEApologies for a counter view, you are correct about the temps killing most molds and the spores. Others are right about the toxins, heat won’t burn those out. Some are dangerous, some can be lethal. Hope you can find spares that wouldn’t leave you at risk. Tiny little fungi with a lot of misunderstood power.
Worth noting, even if you don’t wind up with a toxic batch and cook it to death people can suffer a mean gut reaction as we aren’t built internally for some of it. Stay safe out there.
