hey Dingle, looks like you had a pretty huge infestation of aphids there. Since it's already chopped most of them will loose interest during the drying, others will get caught and die on the stalks and flowers. to get rid of them you do want to do bud washing but i think that's already too late for you to do that technique right. In the end it's still smokable but sometimes you hear snap crackle and pop , hardly changes the taste since they're usually so small. hope this helps ! 🚀
