Doest any one ahve the answer as it doesnt smell like bud at all any more, where has the smell gone? have i done some thing wrong?
is this ur 1st grow? it just might cus.. either... poor strain? poor light? harvested at the wrong time? erm poorly fed? could be loads of things :)
4th grow, growing white rhino, n harvested it bit late, which might be the reason. but has any one else had this problem? will curing it in cans halp?
How long have you been drying it, two week's, three weeks? After a couple weeks you should start cureing your bud is mason jars, you can use any sealable container but mason jars are glass and won't pick any bad tastes or smells. Place buds loosely in the jars close the lid tight and only open it for 20 min. aday. Do that for a month while keeping it in a cool dark place and keeping a eye out for mold. You should notice a differance after that.
As far as the hay smell, check your buds for mold. Hopefully there is none and that's not your problem, if there is sorry dude but better luck next year.
thanks man, they only been drying for a bout 10 days now, but smell has slowley gone, when i agitate the bud it does smell of skunk then , but i will cure it one dried.
thansk for your help guys
it sounds like a poor strain or it was a poor plant? iv had the same thing happen to me with whitewidow..
yeah man nirvana seeds, dont really liek thats company as all the plants were inconsistent and 4 males, where as the flying dutchmen, shiva shanty and pot of god were all big and strong. much bigger stems too. they have still got about 2 or 3 weeks left
Do they smell strong (stealth) while growing? I have those exact seeds :)Quote:

What r u growing and doesn't it have smell when u cut it open? How long has it been drying off the tree,ect.?
THere r some good URL's on curing and that's how ul get ur grow to be all it can be.Good luck and the next grow always goes better because we learn so much from each time.Make sur eto keep good documentation so u know what u did when it went south and visa-versa.:thumbsup:
some strains lose their smell and taste, its not something youve done, (unless you grew hemp lol) its the strain,
