powder from buds

When I water my 1 month flowered plants, I can't help brushing and squeezing by each one to get to the other one. I also like to change rotation of the plant. My question concerns the powdery substance on the leaves, falling from the buds. Is it best to avoid knocking this powder off, if possible. Is this the beginning of the trichromes substance starting to form.
Thank you, gaw

Powder? You mean white snowy like shit? That's crystals and no you don't wanna play with that and knock it off however tempting it may be.....

Hope your powder ain't yellow...if it is, that's pollen......

It's crystal not yellow. Definately snowy. When I water I get into very close quarters and can't help but brush against them. I'm going to revise my watering system to avoid contact. Thank you, gaw
