hello all. First time grower here. everything was going great until I caught a case of the white flies. I read around to see a fix and had to resort to pesticides. I was careful to select one meant for gardens, fruits and vegtables hoping it would be less harmful to humans.

I just need a little advice on how to clean the bud (if necessary) prior to enjoying my first batch. This but is all set and ready to go. Thanks for any help and sorry for being a n00b grower lol

If the pesticide you used was rated for use on consumables, like vegetables, then you don't need to wash it off of the buds. In fact, spraying the buds with water could invite mold, and would render the buds practically useless.

I believe a lot of pesticides used for vegetables are just insecticidal soaps that degrade over time and are not harmful to those that consume it. It might have a bit of a funky taste, but that's better than a bud that can't be smoked because it's riddled by mold.
