Impossible to see from that photo,i would continue to dry them but be very careful ,i would never smoke or do anything with bud that has mold in it,i have also just had to bin a auto,that had about 2/3 oz on it ,it all happened over night a timer went down and humidity went way too high, ,and the next day the plant was a wreck really bad shape,The humidity was over 100%.Some of the leafs was black,so just shows you how fast you can get hit by mold,I very nearly lost a plant that i have had years too.I was lucky to get a couple of side branches,but its doing fine now,but i was lucky with that one. .
 
Well the thing of it is. Is that the humidity had been only around 40 to at most 50. To me the buds look fine. I mean some leaves are just dying and have a bit of color. But other than that the inside is green. Ive just never had and bud that smells musty like this. Maybe I can get some better pics posted. I could be wrong being I haven't had to deal with this

It may be just a smell its putting out,They used to be a strain called moth balls years ago,that had a fusty smell to it ,but was fine

Fuke me moth balls takes me back that does

Really blur,is there any black or flossing,kinda fur candy floss looking.
the best thing to do is take a bud to bits and check each piece really careful,a bigger bud would be better to do this with
 
No black. But ya I did find a little stringer thought it was curtain lint. Being it is in curtains. And that is a price of a big bud. Is it too late then?if so

Do ya tho k I caught it just in time if so. And will it be alright then if dried completely
If it is mold then by the time you smell it, it's too late, a musty smell would be an indicator of this...but could also just be the variety which I doubt as mold has a distinctive smell...better pic's would help determine...but I'm betting it's mold.
 
I am goin to cut today. I cut a few bugs just to get me through being in dry. And smoked a bit. Bud looks and tastes fine. Although I haven't had to deal with this. It a shame if so. Prob got about 3 - 4 ounces
 
Also the smell isn't absolutely strong. Just faint. So if so I'm thinking I just happened to catch it if so. Just smells grassy with a hint of must
