Im using genetics that should stink (DP Blueberry) and yet again the results dont smell,theres a hint and when compressed a bud will smell but none of my grows so far in this cupboard have smelled yet? They always end up lookng a tad lifeless and brittle almost with that damp musty smell,no rot but that smell etc.It tiocks all the boxes as far as trychomes etc,covered in crystals,sticky as hell like they should be.The tackiness in my fingers smells obviously but it just dosnt have the smell it should be screaming of as i have now got to grips with the fundamentals of hydro and can produce good,healthy plants.So its a cupboard,i have a Rvk extracting a cooltube 400w Lumatek,i have a little passive intake and also a household fan within the cupboiard,blowing away 24/7.
I personally am thinking its intake,fresh air? Its not the light/heat as ive checked that plus im using a proper cooltube with extraction.Also ive only been using a 400w for a few months,prior to that it was a 300w CFL with the same drab results.
Dont get me wrong,the result to look at looks great,ill get a shot when i can but just no odour and when dried they develop the musty smell but i believe the smell is inherited from the grow and not the result of bad drying conditions.
Its really irratating me as i feel ive learnt enough now (thanks to you guys!) to be getting nice results and yes its smokable and very nice tbh but having been a toker all my life,a conoisseur like alot of you,you want that bouquet.
Ive always compared it to fine wine in that aspect.
Id really appreciate your expert input people.Im sure ive asked before.Whatever it takes though,do i need a fan for intake also?,its only a bloody cupboard.
There wont be any room for a plant at this rate!
Cheers.
