HAY SMELL
newenglandgrowersstarted grow question 2 years ago
Buds smelling a bit like hay/wet grass! what's weird is that the fat main tops are "crispy" and smell sweet and fruity but the smaller buds are still wet and smell like hay. On day 13 of drying 60%rh 72°F. The bigger stems are starting to snap but the smaller ones only bend??

Drying is a weird process bro. I haven't had 1 plant dry the same. I had what you are talking about on my 3rd part harvest on my zkittlez she had 95% white pistils and when slow drying she turned 100% amber and I had what you are talking about. And it's the best weed I've dried yet. The slower the better. Another 2-3 days. If you don't wanna overdry your main cola, strip them and put the small buds in a box and start your main bud curing in the jar. But 90% of the time you get all your grow in the same window but on occasion when you have dense buds and big cola stru and you dry it right like you did, (whole) it's just the stem drying out and the lil buds your talking about I bet they are mainly in V shaped areas of the stem right? She's drying great man.

Don't worry about the smell. When you start to cure it in jars you will find the hay smell will have gone. Just don't over dry it otherwise it'll take longer to cure. You want the small stems to snap easily before jarring.

I have found that waiting for the bigger stems to snap means I have over dried and need to hydrate the flower for curing. If you have a hygrometer try putting one of your branches in an airtight container with the hygrometer for a day and see what the humidity is.

And as for the hay smell, when it fully dries out most of that smell will go, but if it's still pungent like that it has some drying left to do, probably a bit too much as it prob will be too long for the drier buds. Strip what you feel is dry and cure it. And you can either strip the small buds and throw em in a box to dry quickly or you can let em dry out for a few more days, 3-4 by guessing from my own dry, which took 7 days for 70% and 10-11 for the rest of the 55g

Why did the smell almost disappear?buds are drying and have been hanging for about 4 days. They still have awhile to go. But I noticed they have a hay/chlorophyll type smell and the bud smell is pretty much gone... will it come back during the curing or did I fuck up some how?
Its been 65⁰-72⁰ Humidity 40-50%

Drying. Which option should I go for? [expert opinions required]1) Drying in a shed outside [gets very hot middays and low hum and low airflow]
2) Drying in a cupboard outside [also hot with sun hitting it directly but much much smaller than the shed]
3) Drying in an inside cupboard [which will make my room stink but with stable conditions]Week 14

Harvest window question- I got my microscope. What fun. But I’m still confused. Looks like I have some cloudy some amber and many clear trichomes. I just can’t tell if it’s ready or not. Gut tells me to give her another week of flushing and then go for it. What do you all think?

Drying in too warm circonstances. Dry with leaves on?I will be harvesting my first grow! But I'm worrying the climate in my country won't make drying easy. What should one do in case of to high temperatures. I will try to find a well vented place thats not to hot. But should I try drying without cutting all foliage to dry slow? 🥦✌️Week 9

When to harvest auto flower? Can I push it to week 13?Wondering when to harvest these bad boys. Trichomes don’t appear amber yet. Website for the seeds say 70-90 days seed to harvest. I’m wondering if I can push it to 90 days (13 weeks(ish)) even if they appear ready at 70. Will that effect my harvest?

Harvesting in sections while flushingHow do you guys harvest the mature tops first then let the rest mature while also flushing? Like how do you keep the bottom fed while you flush the tops? Or can you flush then just start feeding again?Week 10

Ready for the chop? Day 59 of floweringDoes it still need more time? Hairs look 75-90%(depending on what cola you look at) orange and trichs look about right. Not sure if I'm seeing new pistols or their just kinda folding inwards. My preference is to harvest it for a nice balanced effect. Just a little couch lock.

Harvest times?Hi guys, it's about 6 weeks since I noticed the first little small flowers. What do you think about it? I could harvest in three days otherwise I'll have to harvest in two weeks because I'm leaving. Some friends will take care of them but won't harvest for me.

Once again I must ask, is it ready for harvest?Pistols are anywhere from 60-80% orange depending on the cola, and the trichomes are mixed, I see some clear, I see milky and I see amber.We're mid week 8 of flower as well. If it's close enough should I ice the pot and start my 2 days of darkness now?
