smell?????

[jlara49]

I just harvested one plant and a few buds of another and the buds were dried until the stem snapped, and now they are in jars but they dont smell right?? they smell just like hay. Can anyone tell me what i did wrong thanks.

They need to cure for a month at least until the chlorophyll is out-gassed I guess is what happens and the herb loses that green smell. It will be fine, just takes time. Just remember to take the lids off for the first week or so every day and let all the air exchange, and you will be fine.

Patience sweetie.

I had the same problem with my first harvest. but the second time I dried them in a cooler more himid room, and the same strain smells great! Drying them too fast was making them smell weird-like hay. I thought I should use the flowering room since I can control humidity, but it was too hot.
