My plant has been drying for 5 days now and seems ready to cut the buds off the branches. When I go into my drying room I can smell that good familiar smell of MJ, but when I put my nose directly onto the buds the smell is totally unfamiliar, but very pungent. Is this just because it hasnt cured yet? There is no mold and I did not use any nutrients on my plant. Thanks! | ||

... How do you NOT use nutrients??? That may be your problem. Or, just go thruogh the drying and curing process. It will return... JG

| On my first grow ever, while they were drying they smelled good from a far, and kind of like tea of something...very strong and like grass...yeah closer to wet grass. by the time i was ready to start curing it smelled like straight chronic. swap

| It is probably the chlorophil(sp?) you are smelling. After they dry and cure the chlorophil, which is a starch by the way, will turn into sugars and will make it yummy to the taste and smell. I may be wrong but it is normal.

| Sidenote - If you haven't already done so save yourself some work and go ahead and trim the leaves off it while its still a little wet. Learned the hard way myself.
