Is this safe to consume?

[BoredToDeath]

Found some weird stuff when examining some buds today, two different strains. One strain have some white stuff on it, is this mold? Everything looks fine except for this one white part (see photo). The other strain has some black parts visible when looking through a jewelers loupe, looks kinda "old" but no white mold looking stuff. I haven´t noticed any weird smells but wanted to hear what you guys think, you think this is safe to consume or should I toss it? Any advice is gladly appreciated!

I don't think it's mould. I wonder if it's a spider egg sack or something like that? I'd just pick it out and consume but someone else might have an idea.
scroll through this and a few of these look similar.

I concur with Chi; looks like a cocoon or egg nest of sorts. Critter issues maybe. Not mold, as far as I can tell.

Let it grow!

That looks like an insect tingie. But could also be some debris that just randomly caught there. If it's light enaugh to be blown by wind. The bud is fine to use.

- got me wondering if a smoked/toked egg sac - can get you high - might become a trend - lol

D'you know about the Australian Red Back Spider?

When I lived in Western Australia believe it or not at a time when toilets (the bog, the dunny) were down the back yard ... and once a week someone from Council would pick up the full one and leave a clean one ... red back spiders would often live under the seat and bite anyone unfortunate to stir them up.

Supposed to be REALLY poisonous but I never heard anyone died from a bite. Nonetheless a bite on the goulies would not be nice!

PS: Into sex games Gypsy?

Aussie red-backed spiders? - naa - just a few Aussie tourists over here mate - good lot generally - and I feel sorry for them having to go home to sit on a spider infested 'Dunny' now - we seem to have got less insects this year - in my part of England - while others have had a plague of flies -
Sex games? - not likely - unless you've got a 'Furry Fox' suit and want to meet an Anime' waitress - who dresses up like Little Red Riding Hood - from Uzbekistan -

fun fact, that last person in Australia to die from a spider bite was from a red back!

Thanks for all input, guys! Really appreciated!

What do you think about that black stuff in the other bud? It´s a high CBD hemp flower bought online so I have no idea how it was grown or handled. Could it be some kind of mold or possibly from some kind of process to keep THC levels down? Maximum allowed where I live is 0.2%.

 

[exploziv]

Not enaugh clarity and field of view to judge it. But does look extremely oxidised. No ideea why and how would they do that to ensure THC level compliance. I thought they just use the right genetics for that, and not treat unsuitable buds to get them to comply..

 

[goingrey]

Bro the quality is dubious to say the least and it's CBD weed that won't even get you high. Don't smoke it... Eating might be ok.

Grow your own!

I would not consume this black thing in any way...
