Molds infected my buds but the leaves looked fine - Is it okay to use it as edibles?

Hi everyone, when harvesting my plant, I just realized the insides of the buds are filled with web-like white colored stuffs, after some research and using 60x magnifying glass, I concluded that it was molds, I read that it is dangerous to smoke the buds at this point and better to throw it out, however the leaves looked fine, is it okay if I cook it or is it not recommended ?

Thank you in advance.

Do you have any pics? I sure find it strange that the buds to have mold but no signs on the leaves, what was the humidity that you were growing at ?

Sorry to read that, dude. Bud rot sucks. Don't smoke it though, you will get sick.
A few years ago I bought a bag of weed off a guy wouldn't normally buy from. It smelled kinda like weed, and kinda 'dirty' as well. I bought 3grms and it lasted me over a week- it was hard to smoke, but I was poor and in college and couldn't justify throwing it away.
I should have. Ended up on a load of anti-biotics and steroids for bronchitis and chest infections, I missed 3 months of college,had to drop out- and a fortune on medical expenses. I hacked up half a lung if I even tried to smoke a joint.
Good airflow, watching humidity and checking regularly for bud rot will make sure you don't get it again. It looks grey/ brown and comes away easily when pulled at on a plant. Really bad luck, don't be discouraged, growing is a learning curve.
Have you any pics of the buds , please?

Image 1 - 5 are the close up insides of the harvested buds, image 6 is the 3 days dried harvested leaves, image 7 is the bottom half part of the plant which I have not harvested, the bottom half part looks healthy though to me and no sign of molds inside the buds when I checked, is it alright to use the bottom half part ?

Pics may not seem clear but if you look closely inside the buds there are white colored web like stuffs. Any comments ?
