This wasn’t a problem when you were getting it from “your guy”.

Yeah but when dispos are charging obscene amounts for shitty weed under the guise of having higher quality standards, it is a problem.

And a lot of the unlicensed grey market weed businesses in Connecticut do in fact take mold issues seriously.

As someone who's been growing for close to 7 years now.... I promise you it was/is.

I guarantee you every person who has regularly purchased weed from dealers has consumed moldy weed many times over. Even in pristine growing conditions where I monitor tent conditions around the clock and keep a daily journal of my activities, I've gotten moldy plants. Sometimes the colas just grow way too big and there's no amount of airflow that will save you. If one of those buds breaks open in the tent or during trim, you get spores on everything. Those plants never make it into my lungs and are destined for the fireplace, but there's definitely plenty of it out in wild. Dealers intentionally sell heroin with fentanyl in it. Something tells me they don't give a fuck about a little mold, and they certainly aren't going to ditch a few pounds of grass in the name of public safety. .

Dealers sell fentanyl instead of heroin* You'd be hard pressed to find any heroin state side now a days.

Does burnt mold cause much harm? I feel like all my pot head friends would be sick some what often if it did but I'm not a doctor lol

Unless it's in crazy quantities, it doesn't do much unless you have certain underlying lung conditions or have mold allergies. The amount needed to actually make you ill would be evident just looking at the weed. It'd look terrible and you wouldn't want to smoke it just on looks alone.
