Same man. Same. My buds are good, smoke well and get you high. But the smell and taste just aren’t there. I’m gonna keep trying different things until I get it right.
I dried stardawg in a cardboard box with small fan. It taken like two weeks but the smell remained. After bagging my recent harvest, like three or four days later the smel goes away lol
Same experience man. The smell does get better once they go into jars but it’s never an in your face dank smell like we all want.
I wonder what we’re doing wrong. Wonder if it’s the bag choice. I used white paper Morrison’s bags before. They did seem a bit thick and smell didn’t quite stick. This time around I’ve tried Aldi brown paper bags. Destroys my soul knowing I’ve been growing plants for like three month for them not to smel right in the end. I’ve got a partial harvest in Aldi bag right now with another bag over it to try and draw more moisture out my buds so I can put them into grovebags
thank you - I may give that a pop with some to see how it works out for me, I normally dry over 10-14 days, but the longer the better so worth a pop
I’m going to be using sock hangers for dry and try some bud washing. I’ve been reading a lot about bud washing and although it’s scary it does make sense the more you read it. But yeah no paper bags for me. It’s hard to control their environment especially when it’s really humid outside. What I’ve kinda learned is when you think your buds are dry, fire them into grovebags with a good hygrometer. If the humidity is above 63% then let them dry off for a while. Put them back in until the humidity remains at 62% or above 57%. Then leave them in grovebags to cure. Maybe try using those sock hangers for drying mate? You can get them at a dollar store if ure in America, or pound shop in uk. I’ll update you on how mine turns out once they’ve been curing a while
