Hi,
Nothing to worry about.
It is normal thats how the bud smells. Once you harvest, dry and cure, you will smell the difference.
Happy harvest!!!!

Weird buds??So my buds have some weird growth I think?
My girls have developed these growths at the top (and sides) of the buds.
Is this normal? Do I need to fix it?
My noob logic tells me ‘buds are getting bigger = all good’.
But not sure if it’s a problem? Please help. Huge thanksWeek 9

How long until I should harvest my northern light?She's at day 50 now and her pistils are already getting quite orangey/brown (see diary), which seems rather early to me, also compared to other diaries of her strain. How long (more or less ofcourse) would you reckon she still has before she should be harvested?5y ago

Should I be concerned? Is this even an autoflower?I am growing 2 different autos (Purple Kush and Auto Jack) and 1 is flowering MUCH faster than the other. It's making me think the Auto Jack might not even be an auto. Has anyone ever had 1 auto take much longer or seem much more developed then the other when started together?THXBuds. Too few

Blue Ice OG - LowTemps = Color ChangeI am currently growing Blue Ice OG from seedsman.
Seedsman advertises that this strain can develop shades of dark blue and purple colors if it is exposed to nights below 12°C(54°F).
My question is, when during the grow cycle would you do this?Week 2

checked the trichomes and they were a little more amber than I anticipated 40% on top buds. Still want to give her one more good flush which would be 2 days from now, before I harvest. Will I still be good or will the trichomes bust by the end of the next flush?Week 17

How long to cure?How long do I need to cure my cannabis after drying it? It's been drying for 2 weeks in 50% RH and got a bit dry. I put it in jars and added 62% packs. Current humidity inside is 58%. How long would you say it would be good to smoke? Do you think I can give it a go already?Buds. Other
