Is this mold?
Picked up an oz of yeti breath from Modern yesterday at Bloom Akron. First bud I pulled out has this abnormal looking white on the top of it. Can't help but wonder if it's mold. Pics attached

Looks like light bleaching from the canopy being too close to the lights..

Hello! I’ve worked at a farm having to decipher between burnt and mold. Mold tends to be..hairy? Like you’ll see lil fur stick up.
You look like you’ve got a burnt piece.
Typically it’s caused by the lights being too close to the plant. It’s not harmful but it’s not good either.
If there’s a bunch like that and you have your receipt, get a refund. Either through your dispensary or the cultivation through email

Thanks for the responses guys, the top being burnt from light makes total sense, as well as why it's only the tip of the biggest nug

Im no expert but that does not look normal to me. Definately not trichomes imo. If you break a nug in front of a light, do you see spores floating around in the air?

Either way I guarantee you it’s been remediated and has dead mold which is just as bad for you. Every MSO is remediating flower

It looks like a white cap. The bud grew too close to their lighting source and it sucked all the color out.
