From my experience, quick drying usually results in the wet grass smell. What method of drying did you use? Slow drying has always been best for me. Better taste, smell, etc.

.i think i found my answer, dose this sound right?

·In a cool room buds dry slowly because the air can hold a small amount of moisture. This gives the cells time to convert starches back to sugars, & creates a smoother smoke. The coolness preserves odor molecules, which evaporate at higher temperatures. When drying in a room with high humidity & temperatures the odor molecules evaporate in the high temperature but the moisture has no place to go because the air is already saturated. with lower humidity, the plants would dry quickly and little odor would be lost.
· Allow 5-14 days of dry time.
· Temperature = 65-75*F. Best @ 70*F
· Humidity = 45-55%
