ummm i dunno... im new at the whole harvesting thing, but i do know that my dry weed didn't smell like hay-it smelled like dank WEED lol.

i don't know if this could cause the smell, but is there a chance you might have bud mold or something? i don't wanna scare you, im just wagering a guess.

na i checked for that it looks like normal dank...just smels like hay lol

I watched a video on how to make a good grow room and how to actually grow/dry...and it said something about the clorophyl gets removed during the drying process or something?

So that would make it smell like hay?

lolz, its all the plant matter dryed up, not the buds. after u seperate it all u will see where the hay smell is comming from, i throw all the plant matter into a rubbermaid and it reeks like hay. the buds should smell sweet and goodness.

When I first harvest they smell like buds, then as they dry they take on sort of a fresh-mown smell. After curing them in jars where i take the tops off every day blah blah the lovely normal scent of bud returns to them.

Could be the strain... Ive found that White Rhino smells like a mixture between cat piss and wet straw.
