Why do my flowers grown in coconut fiber have no taste? it doesn't taste anything, but really.. the smell is brutal. I wash it for two weeks, I don&#0

If you’re that confident that the only difference is your medium.. than go back to what worked for you. That said, I don’t think that’s the reason. Some of the best tasting and most terpy bud I’ve grown is in coco and other soilless mediums.

the harvest happens on time! there is no heat to burn the terpenes! I almost always grow the same strain and I know well what it tastes like in the ground. my drying also takes place under suitable conditions. so in principle everything is perfect .. only the taste is missing .. which is the most important thing for me!!😪 I was thinking about nutrient exchange .. advanced nutrients would be available to me .. I was thinking about nutrient exchange .. advanced nutrients would be available to me .. but I welcome personal experiences during cocus cultivation..

I believe in terroir. It's a French word used when describing wines and how the soil and climate where the grapes are gown affects the taste. Even with the same grape variety some regions of the world are known for better wine because of the local conditions (climate, soil...). Long, long ago I did an experiment growing strawberries in different mediums. There was a huge difference. Let me tell you that you do NOT want to grow berries in peat. You could really taste the peat in the berries. Some of the best sweet corn I have ever tasted came from the US state of Illinois. It was sweeter and had more flavor than the same corn grown in other regions.

It happened to me the same, nft .... there is taste but surely not like the ones in soil. Still trying to understand this !

the medium is just a vessel for water. what else are you doing differently? different strains? pretty hard to compare past and present results when it is a completely different plant. the plants i've grown encompass the whole spectrum of bland to flavorful. That leads me to believe it is mostly genetics. The composition of buds does not change due to diet. the cell walls are still made up of the same molecules and elements... the nucler envelope, chhlorophyl, other organelles etc all have a specific instruction set that cannot deviate or they won't function properly and the cell won't function properly. Since a flower or pollen sac is a sex organ, it did not evolve to fulfill the role of storage. common sense contexts of a fairly healthy plant, just in case to narrow scope. it's a deterministic world out there. cause and effect. it doesn't matter how the co2 was formed, it will always act like co2 is expected for a given a context. The building blocks used are the same by the time they are jig-sawed together for whatever cellular growth it is invovled in, flower will be flower / stem will be stem - with a bit more range than a simple molecule like co2 due to greater complexity of what's going on... relativistic factors and such muddy the waters quite well at times. any ratio achieved of what is provided can be matched atom for atom with soluble, chelated nutes.. not saying it is happening with any product or even the ones i use, but definitely not impossible with existing knoweldge and tech. nothing mystical about the composition of some earth.

Honestly, the only thing I can think of is that you're either harvesting too early or harvesting too late. I assume you check the trichomes before deciding when to harvest so that you have at least all of them milky/cloudy but not most of them amber... Neither the way you grow (in coco or soil or hydroponic) nor the nutes that you use will have any effect on the taste or effect - it's generally down to harvesting at the wrong time OR the buds have been jarred/cured for too long (but that last scenario probably doesn't apply as I don't think you've kept the buds for several years...) Good luck! I think you probably just need a good jewelers loupe or a microscope so you can tell when the perfect time to harvest is ...

Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong? I didn't do anything different even when growing in the ground and the flowers tasted fabulous. there is one change that I use coco a b instead of alga bloom.. that's it.. I would be really happy if someone could explain to me why there will be no taste in smoking stone. however, the smell also penetrates the concrete wall.. its effect makes you dizzy...
