@Catova 😕 yeh mate that is Mold eeewwww to save those buds you will need to act fast #remove any affected material #transfer the unaffected bud to a cardboard box or even a paper bag/s # put it somewhere dry and airy preferably out of the light # let it dry properly 👉DO NOT SMOKE MOLDY WEED 👈

Taking those down is like spreading more ... Fungus and spores ... You need air circulation, not fan on them, but constant air change in dry room ... Try to buy peroxide and wash scissors every time and nicely trim those fan leaves, anyway they were protection for dry trimmed bud... All the Best !!!

Mold is a fungus and yes, your material is infested. Never dry in the bathroom, as the germ and spore load in that room is very high, even if meticulously cleaned. The only salvation for your buds would be water hardening. For this, you put your buds in distilled water, preferably osmosis water. Change the water several times a day and after 7 - 14 days, you'll be rid of the problem. Water-hardened weed is a whole different caliber, so not all is lost. Good luck!
