HELP! MY CURING BUDS SMELL WEIRD?????

[Pastelbunni]

Sorry I cannot actually give you useful advice.

Were it still on the plant I’d recommend “Regalia” a Marrone product that is safe and effective.

I just want to know if i need to toss these cause I cant tell if its mold

I understand. I see none.

Also hay odor sometimes goes away, just keep burping your jars

Its just so disappointing because even when we were cutting it off the stem and trimming it smelled so good I'm so upset

Don’t lose hope and keep aerating the jars.
That good smell is a pretty good sign.

I'll keep going. How will I know for sure if its powered mildew or not?? Is there a better way to tell??

Powdery mildew has a very specific look that I would describe as “weathered polyfill”. I see none of that on your photos.

Okay. Ill keep going and just watch it. Is there anything else i can do to help smell other then continuing curing and watcing humidity?

get hygrometer or something that measures humidity, evidently you want to hit 55-63% humidity range depending on which dickhead you ask on here. it should take 3 to 7 days, and the faster it drys the more likely it will smell like hay or some shit. you can use brown bags but if the humidity is acceptable in the room then just hang string up and rest the buds on it. no right way to do it but there is certainly a few wrong ways. better luck next time homie

I'll definitely invest in one for next time :/ did you think the photos looked like mildew?? What would cause it to be crumbly?

I’ll let other wiser folks weigh in.

Multiple grows under your belt equals that most irreplaceable commodity: experience. You’ve done one; that is your reference line.

I can only tell you what I have done so here it goes it goes 14 to 21 days drying on stem and that least the same in jar with the brup 3 time a day and then happy happy smoking as always thank you for your time

I would try getting some small hydrometer and putting them in the jars this takes some guess work out of the jars are over 65% humidity that’s too wet and need to come out and dry. You can also get a two way humidity pack and put them in the jar it helps keep it in the range you want the longer it’s in the 60-65% range the better it will smell over time once you get below like 55% in the jar it won’t really change in my experience.

Smok the tress

No.... it doesnt

It should smell dank when it’s hanging! Yes, you must burp, but no way it shouldn’t smell bomb when you trim
