HighTVanswered grow question 6 years ago Hey there IslandP Regardless off the source of mold/smell if you were wanting to harvest these plants after that I would highly recommend looking up a technique called Budwashing. Essentially you take your fresh cut crops and dip them in a bucket of water with a small amount of hydrogen peroxide. Then dip them in a follow up bucket of cold water. This method is known to help clear out some forms of powdery mildews and pests. It also has the advantage of cleaning your buds of dust/hair (you would be surprised how much they gather after 4-5 months) for a much cleaner and smoother smoke. Hope that helps you come harvest time 😎
