I know powdery mildew can look like tiny white hairs. I'm thinking it's mildew but can someone with more experience let me know?

Those spiky things are leaf "hairs", otherwise known as "non-glandular trichomes" and are nothing to worry about, they are compltely normal for cannabis. Stay off those gum leaves!

7th week flowering mold problem. What can I do?
Hello everyone, in the last few weeks unfortunately I have eliminated some florets because a bit of mold has been created, I do not think it is real botrytis because if it was botrytis in 2-3 weeks it had to infect all the plants, it is a small percentage that I have eliminated .

Two questions really; 1. I caught a couple of small flys on a fly strip. One was tiny and white. How worried should I be? Should I try to treat her with something? 2. The taller plant is like 2 ft tall and I am worried she will outgrow the space, is supercrop the only solution???

I have some very bad news and need help. I was gone for a few days and when I returned to see how the plants were doing, lots of the buds have been taken over by mould. I am very disappointed with this and I think my only option is to harvest now. Please help!

Is the bud rot? What to do?
Is this bud rot? I found it on two bud sites so far on my big plant. What would you do? 1) Assuming it's rot or some other infection would you just harvest now? It's like 2-2.5 weeks early. 2) Wait one more week and see and risk spread?
