Found on stem during trim

Does anyone know what this is? I found it when I trimmed an autoflower. White comb-like growth. It looks like chicken wire under the scope. Just curious. I have more plants growing. Thanks!!

Looks like one of the many reasons I do A bud wash after harvest.

Wow. Never heard of bud wash! Glad I posted this! Could you send a link for instructions? This spot was the only area- down near the bottom on a fan leaf. Kind of cool structure!

Cant link im casting news to tv. But snapped a few screenshots.

I do this every harvest, its easy, the buds look crisp and fresh afterwards, it removes or kills any spores that landed on them during the grow, right before you stick em in a high humidity dry experience.

Washing is definitely the way to go. Wait until you look close at the water. Lots of foreign stuff washes out. Inside or outside.

What is on my 5 day old seedling?

I had these on my plants last year! I found it at trim, so I don’t think they hurt the plant. I’ll attach a photo of what they look like microscopically if it helps with the ID at Madison. Good luck!
