Hello!

Its rare when i smoke a strain with a fruity or sweet taste to it in a joint / bong / pipe ...

Last week i harvested one Kaya 47 (Advanced Seeds) with a really citrusy/lemony type of smell, so GOOD,almost a fresh smell!
Yesterday i smoked one 0.7 gr joint with my friend ,the taste was just like burned herb, very hot smoke...
Why is this?
My Bubblegummer (Female Seeds) was very sweet and tasty,my Blue Mystic (Nirvana) was really fresh,woody,pineapple!...

My question is why some strains just taste like burned herb and others taste so good?

My Buds:
-Organic medicine
-They smell very nice
-Well dried
So i dont know what is the problem.

Maybe this strains with not a lot of taste when smoked, need to be cured to bring the taste?
I just cured one time one Bubblelicious (Nirvana) and the taste was very sweet...

So i appreciate some help because i like my buds with an awesome taste!

Ps: Say the name of some strains with great taste and smell in your own experience.

I just found out the hard way about taste and how to loose it. My last grow had two issues, canopy too warm (faulty thermometer) and too much nitrogen during bloom cycle (my new organic tea recipe, should have cut out the earth worm castings in bloom). There you have it.... Don't do that.

Thank you for the tip man! :) :thumbsup:

A lot of folks say the bad taste comes from nutes being used well into the harvest. Makes the aromatics harsh & not sweet, still crazy good just a bad taste. Shovel is very correct on this!! Also curing has a bunch to do with taste. Many variables. Just what I'm hearing! On the other side of the fence have a pal in Oregon who sez that's B.S. cuz the flowers absorb all nutes during uptake. Very confusing. Imho, think ya gotta be in a zen state of mind during harvest.

Nope, it's science really. I noticed that I was not having the normal yellowing and dropping of the lower leaves at all until I stopped all nutes two weeks from harvest. That didn't help much. I didn't get the odor and taste I usually get. I'm quite sure it was the extra nitrogen. It was from EWC, an organic source so maybe that is why the smoke isn't fizzy, fireproof and harsh tasting, maybe not. I could have been worse. :cool:
