Will it be safe to smoke the flower after harvesting powdery mildew infected plants? Does powdery mildew get inside the buds or just on the leaves and stems?
This could make you quite sick. Mold, mildew, etc. is not always killed in the combustion process, and often you are breathing in before everything is completely burned, and you DO NOT want to inhale any spores. What I recommend, for the sake of your health as well as putting that nasty weed to good use, is making some honey (hash) oil. There are a lot of "recipes" available, but for quality's sake I recommend the butane extraction method. Do a quick search and you can find the details on how to make an extractor yourself, but to be safe I recommend the "Honey Bee Extractor."
Now, some people might advised you could just as easily make bubble hash out of that bad bud, but, you could end up with spores in your hash and might as well smoke the buds... Good luck!
