    Bud smell

    Why does my weed (buds) smell so green and not smell like skunk etc? I’m happy with the potency but it smells cheap. Once I fix this problem I’ll work on better yields. Any suggestions?

      If it's still growing you need to look at your temps and RH. Lower the better for that typically in late flower.

      It could also be strain related.

        If you want that really dank smell dry then cure completely untrimmed.

          Is it a skunk strain?
          And what does 'cheap' weed smell like?
          C'mon, mule!

            Cheap weed smells like nickles and dimes, whereas high end weed smells like 100 dolor bills! LOL

            Lol.....I'm actually confused. Because cheap weed back in my day (Mexican brick weed) smelled like skunk. The good stuff today might smell like cookies or lemon or even earthy. If your after "skunky" then I suggest a strain like Sour Diesel. I wasn't going to waste my time with posting here but decided to bite. I'm bored....And the odds of a response are negligible...Decided to entertain

            The bricks I got mostly smelled of dirt, what can I say at $90 a kilo so $10 4 finger lids sold fast, even though it was a sack full of seeds and sticks!
            But did you now they were color coded? The best I ever got out of Mexico was in green paper.

          The dry, cure, and storage is where you will put the finishing touches on your grow. Properly done that process will make your weed smell and taste the best that it can be.

              My plants don't get as big as they should and I'm growing them in 5 gallon buckets. Feed and water is right. I notice when I harvest them that the root ball isn't very big and it's only a couple inches under the surface of the soil. What am I doing wrong?
