it's a bit blurry. A colony would form in a circlar blotch at first, but if you sprayed anything on it, it would smear. if you haven't sprayed anything on it, i don't think that is a wpm spot. Take your trichome scope, if oyu have one, and look closer. Mold is easily identifiable close up. If you see anything threadlike over the top of the trichomes, it is mold. If you see individual capitualted trichomes (stalks and bulbous heads only, lol), you are fine. by the time you can see a colony, it is already propagating and you'd likely start to see initial wpm colonies all over very soon, lol.. just another way to set your mind at ease... assuming you do not see that.

Trichomes we are so used to are glandular trichomes, the sperm looking little bulbous things, there are lots of different shapes and sizes though, sometimes when I go digging underneath buds I find spiky trichomes or trichomes that don't have the bulbous head, I'm not sure what the correct name is but often you can find them buried in parts of the bud with less exposure to direct light, the bulbous ones you find on outside all over as these are filled with antioxidants to act as sunscreen for lack of better description sometimes these funky little tric can collapse or bundle together or fall over, possible it might just be that, hard to tell from photos. I'd do as aesthetic says and have a closer look to be sure. Just add more airflow especially at night if it's mould. Gluck old buddy old chum.
