    Curing buds off-color: is this mold?

    Since last week I've been curing this strain, Peach Puree CBD, that I've never grown before. It had some pinkish/purplish/yellow hues when it was alive. Now, some of the buds seem to be turning brownish or grey. It's happening in both jars of this strain. Any theories as to what's happening here?

      Hey Rad, Doesn't look like any mold that I have ever seen, unless it's just starting.
      Sounds like you have grown and dried and cured buds before, were they still damp when you put them in jars?
      Did you burp the jars ? Were the jars overcrowded ?
      If they were not still wet-damp, when you put them in jars, and you burped the jars, and the jars weren't stuffed to full, that's not mold. What do they smell like ?
      Maybe someone else, can help you much better, than I can.

    If you pinch/smash the discolored bud in your fingers does it fall apart, different than the regular bud?

      It does look a bit like bud rot with that gray color.
