white mold on buds?

Had to harvest a pretty good size patch the night before last and sort of spread the bud out on cardboard inside of an old truck with a sleeping cab. Got my room in garage ready for hanging and got the bud out early this morning and more than half of it has white fuzzy mold apparent on the nicer thicker buds. Its not grey and the plants were healthy. Im guessing I've got a couple lbs worth and more than half has mold. The buds are very lush and green looking. What should i do? Spray the fuzz with peroxide or wipe it off? Im pretty sure its not botrytis, just mold due to moisture and the buds being crammed next to each other. Thanks.
 
Very interesting. Anyone tried this before with success? I see here he ia referring to powdery mildew, this is fuzzy white mold. Think it would still be effective?
 
It should. Id give it a try before tossing it out. PM is still a mold/fungus so it should still have the same reaction as fuzzy white mold.
 
I've tried it and it works...but I found you need to use a much higher amount of hydrogen peroxide then Jorge uses in the video
 
also when drying your bud.... you need good airflow(preferably fresh air) or some at least, to prevent mold.
inside a truck??? umm you probably should have rolled the windows down a little bit to get some fresh air flowing to the buds, fans would help too :D
 
I went and purchased a plastic tote and some hydrogen peroxide. When you say use more than the video suggests how much more are you talking about? About how much per gallon of water? Another update, some of the buds turned dark brown and mushy, smelled kinda like a rotten pumpkin. Some are turning a bit gold colored but not mushy or fuzzy just have alto of yellow sugar leaves. Man this is so fucking depressing. Can anyone suggest what might be going on here?
 
Sounds like bud rot. Buds either were harvested too late or the mold and moisture combined with some disease caused your plant to start to die off.
