Benzelsanswered grow question 3 years ago If you have lung issues you actually may die from mouldy bud.. and it would be the spores breathed in while handling it that would do it, smoking mouldy bud may not kill u but no one has studied the toxins in mold spores after they have been burnt and inhaled so please dont offer to be the lab rat here. Even if you dry it, it will smell moldy and any stoner worth his name will know its moldy bud. And it will likely make you other buds moldy. mold aint a joke so get rid of any bits that look bad AND any that smell bad..even if they look fine. Use your nose to check it not your eyes. If it smells funky then dump it.
