Smell from plant

[Lew]

Hello, what's the best way to mask that yummy smell from an outdoor plant as my neighbor is an ex-policeman and no matter where I move it the odor which I adore so much travels thru the entire area, thank you

not much you can do there. pray the wind blows in the opposite direction.

Find a road kill skunk and put it where it can be seen. Keep your plant out of sight. I live in a fairly rural area, we had a "visitor" that made a comment how he could smell the dead skunk on the road clear up by our back door. Yeeeah, thats it. Your smelling road kill. 😆. The visitor was a deputy asking for a address to deliver a summons. We talked for a few minutes. I had a good laugh, the wife didn't see it as funny.

I have this problem every summer where I live.
i have 2,5 Meter high concrete walls around my backyard and house. But my wife tells me she can smell it, when she visit our veggie garden on the other side. And I just gave up according to the smell on my neighbor’s. Even before I noticed the smell, they know already I was growing.
Everybody still smiles at me and have a talk now and then with the neighbors. No one is asking about the smell but I know they can smell it.. 😂😂

what a great idea problem is we dont have skunks here or anything that has that type of a natural odor, other then a decomposing animal which I really dont want to do, like a couple of dead rats would do the trick as well, thanks and take care. I wonder if I can use some type of garlic spray on the plant ? hmmmm

its amazing the wonderful odor that comes from them. I might try some garlic spray or have a good look on google on masking odors, take care

Being outside makes it difficult to mask. I wouldn't spray garlic on it. There are other plants which have alot of strong odors, I would suggest next time pick a lower odor strain and companion plant with some cover smells.
