get rid of anything with mold on it. it can make you very sick or worse.
when did you harvest? did you dry it first or? what is it in now?

^^^ Solid advice. Take heed, and don't share the mold either. I'm guessing it would suck killing a friend.
hmm......depends on the friend me thinks....Quote:

Please don't smoke any more of that moldy weed. You might be able to extract the THC using the ISO technique or some other way but don't smoke it!
There is no way to avoid a reduction in final weight when drying buds. This is because drying means becoming devoid of any and all water left in the plant material. The loss in weight you notice after buds are dry is the lost water weight. Weighing wet buds is a false reality.
Keep these things in mind,

A lot of us have been there, and it sucks. But is smoking moldy homegrown worth the possibility of long term side effects preventing you from smoking ANYTHING without removing your oxygen tube?
Likely the bud you smoked hasn't done much. Do not use that experience to fool yourself into thinking one more bud would be ok too.
Mold spores are mobile, so trying to cut the mold off, and keep the 'good parts' is likely a bad idea too. Seriously...trash it and clean your growroom or wherever it's been with an isopropyl alcohol solution. (1 cup water:1 cup alcohol) This will kill the mold spores, and it's cheap.
Make sure you're around for the next grow. :thumbsup:
