Northern lights smells weird

im just wondering, is the smell coming from the plant? or the growing media, no sitting stagnant water anywhere? no dead earth worms?

Ive grown NL and it didnt stink of piss, what additives are you using, many organic boosters can leave undesirable smells as bacteria break them down.

Neem oil stinks of cat piss as does other oils, did you neem it?

just a thought

p.s the plant looks good, dont chuck it, run it to the end you might be pleasantly suprised

Definitely from the plant, I rub the stem and smell my fingers and smell a piney/coliflower smell... Really hard to describe. I watered them this morning and she blew up in smell. The smell had some hint of earthy/pine smell through that "piss" smell. But don't get me wrong the smell of piss is dominant as fuck

- pro mix soiless soil
- general hydroponic floraseries
- no neem oil, no insecticide

Also my dehumidifier was full and the humidity went up to 70% and she blew up in a desirable cannabis smell I'm used to which stunk up the whole basement. I'm just going to ride this one out since she's healthy

I'm growing some Chem 4 crosses that have a gassy odor mixed with skunk that sounds similar to what you have going on.
When I say gassy I don't mean gasoline but like the smell of beer belching. I use to brew beer and the smell of the off gassing through the airlock mixed with the hop terpenes was very similar. Not as sulfury like you get when cooking the Brassicas, but more like fresh cabbage.
