you should run it through a full set remove and rerun then expose to sunlight for about 1/2 hour which will destroy any remaining if any spores ive proccesed the nastyest moldyest stuff turned the water/ ice black but alway had a nice recovery...and dont forget to wash your bags afterwards..

i have a plant infested with mildew is it safe to hash it?

im using 73m bubblebag

Might I suggest using a microscope and identifying what kind of mold it is first?

If it is Aspergillus, it produces aflatoxins that aren't removed by the water process and which can be lethal.

I have never tried to I'd a mold type. What power magnification is required?

We use a trusty old 1000X binocular Ziess, but you can see enough differences with a hand held 100X to identify the family.

For most of us, we can not identify what is there, and what is left. So the equation is similar to russian roulette, you might smoke and be fine, you might smoke, and do yourself a variety of damage.

There is one safe policy.........throw that bad bud away! Cut your losses, learn from your mistakes, and throw bad bud away so you do no harm.

Clearly the safest policy.

Second safest is to learn your subject matter or don't pick wild mushrooms.

i'd feed those moldy buds to some worms and then take the castings and put them toward growing new buds. also, if you only have a 73u bag as your smallest bag, you're losing the good stuff - you should invest in a 25u bag as well.
