Advice on new bud....

[epilepticme]

Are you trying to tell him that it is okay to smoke mold?

If you're positive there is mold on your weed, get rid of it. There's no way to justify smoking moldy ganja to get high, and it certainly doesn't make sense to smoke it to feel better.

Dude no I am not saying to go smoke a whole bunch of mold! This guy is talking about one or two microscopic pieces of fuzz that may or may not even be mold.

They picture of the bud looked ok too me.. Barring some kind of lung disorder I say that bud is fine to medicate.

To each his own... I am not a Doc.. just a crazy ass patient

Webby threads is definitely mold..If I could return pot, your damn right I would. Mold doesn't go away with flame. You WILL inhale active mold if you smoke moldy shit

Ya'll are missing my point I suppose I am just really high..

Sure If someone hand me a sack of rank smelling musty fuzzy looking

moldy budz I would pass. But If I pick up a dank ass bag of nugs and I find a couple

little microscopic hairs I am not gonna have a panic attack. There are more mold

spores and other allergens in every breath of air we take.

Chill~ Calling my posts asinine won't change my stoned ass opinion

post some more pictures, let the community see what you're seeing. i don't know much about moldy weed, or what it looks like - i've seen pictures, but never in real life - but im sure there are people here proficient enough to let you know what's what.

my boyfriend just bought an ounce, so i get what you mean when you say you feel a little played... isn't this substance suppost to bring out the best in people? it sucks when you get the short end of the stick, but it doesn't mean someone purposely sold you crap.

let's do summore research...

man return it if u can, although i know how this bizness goes and u will most likely be flatly denied a refund/return, good luck on that though

dont smoke the mold... u r getting some bacteria or some shit into your lungs!!

and learn a lesson:
ALWAYS look at the shit b4 accepting it... mold will not be on one or two nugs or leaves if it hits a badge or grow area... it will be visible in almost every single piece of bud, so a good/quick look under adequate light should do the job, light of a cell phone is good!

and learn a 2nd lesson
find and keep certified contacts, no randoms, no strangers, no just this 1 time to get bys...

too much risk like this, i have seen it happen in worse and bigger scale as well... lots of $$$ jacked, guy on highway with a beamer, takes off and exists @ night and the freakin ford focus couldnt even keep up with his bmw's dust!
and this was a guy who had good history on smaller amount of money involved for a few times b4...

I would certainly investigate with something to make sure the purple sides are mold... i mean, technically a good purple haze/mix of family could have this color in buds, but it looks to think of a siding and too dark of a color for a cured bud, so i would say its mold... 2ble check

Good choice not to smoke it....Your health comes 1st...you can always make bubble hash...
Good Luck

CORRECTION: ...too* thick* of a siding...

sorry my edit button was unavailable upon rereading my post and catching my typo

Every time I look at buds under just a cheap mag I can see things like dust, lint, hair, dander, cloth fibres, just whatever usual shit just happens to be floating through the air and gets stuck to the sticky buds as they grow or dry.

With all the dust that can accumulate on buds, I wonder if dust mites are crawling all over them too...

If you smoke a dust mite can you chalk that one up to extra protein intake or is it just wasted?

Just wanted to give a HUGE thank you to the people that stopped by to give some advice. I really appreciate the understanding. It means a lot that people will come by and give an informative reply.

I'm not sure where the confusion has come in? I asked if web like strands and certain colors could represent some type contamination... and I get people saying "Yeah... you're cool... just smoke it."

Annyyway... it's not just the shit buds that I got that make me so angry. Let me say this too... I have already contacted the source. They have since gone through and identified if any other batches were fucked (they weren't). They found two more oz.'s with questionable characteristics. For all of you that don't have the opportunity to return or exchange bud... that sucks. If this were regulated we would all have that right. And this wasn't a shady... one time thing... this is my dude. This has been my dude... will hopefully always be my dude. When they tell me that they feel awful for what happened... not to worry... and they are going to make sure that nobody else has received similar product even if they have to drive to their house with a replacement bag... I have hope in this black market after all.

And I did check it out... but I can't be looking through every bud out of like a QP when people got shit to do and places to be. It smelled good... it tasted good... and it got worked. I'll say again... 3 of the z's I couldn't see any type of mold or rot with the naked eye (just the discoloration and just kinda "off" look) It wasn't until I got the the last sack and dug to the bottom that I found this nug (pic attached). Blatantly and obviously moldy...

Seriously... I have never encountered a strain like this. To many people... fuzzy... gold... skunky bud is a gooooood thing. I would have never thought twice until I was looking at pics of bud rot. Once I saw the dark/black leaves I knew I needed to look closer.

Thanks again to everyone that gave an educated opinion. Even those who weren't sure and wanted more info/pics. I like how you want to learn and not just say "Fuck it... blaze it up!!"

Round of reps coming through for this one... I had a really rough night.

P.S. The pic of the bud was the WORST that I found... although I kinda stopped looking after that. Shit fucking sucks.

Just wanted to beat the shit out of this awful thread of death and loss...

After contemplating the possibility that I would be able to find some "clean" bud to smoke... debating... stressing.... I did some research on Mycelium. Ya know... those web-like threads I mentioned?

Yah... already informed other party and exchange/upgrade is in the works. I'm saying "fuck the bullshit" and opting for some over priced headies until the ladies finish up.

For the time being... I am researching cold butane extraction for honey oil as it is suggested for this type of "fucked up bud." I've obviously never done this before. How beginner friendly is it? I've read the sticky and other threads about it... but haven't really put my glasses on a READ it. Besides ventilation and protective gloves... are there any other precautions/negative results to this? I am probably going for the pen version at first to see how things go, but... if it seems like to much hassle... I'm changing my name to "S.O.L."
