Plume or Mold

[cbenham73]

I am a little new to identifying Plum or Mold on my sticks. Can the Forum tell if this Plum or not? Thanks

It's always mold. Always.

Based on a fairly recent FoH study, which concluded that plume and mold are one and the same...I’m gonna say it’s mold.

Ah I see, even better! even less to worry about.

Agree with the above....it's always mold.  Always.  Those little spots should wipe off easily with a little distilled water.

That mould study conducted by FoH in 2017 makes for great reading @cbenham73...
