Least smelly strain recommendations?

Active Member
So to kind of keep this general without unnecessary specifics, I'm unable to use any sort of carbon filter, or other means of completely covering up a smell, so I'm looking for a strain that won't be incredibly vicious in its odor. I'm looking to grow about 3-4 plants with a 400 watt mh and hps. If anyone has any recommendations of breeder and strain and website to grab from that would be helpful. I've bought from Herbies before and like their business so that would be great to find through them, but I'm open to anywhere that anyone recommends.

If anyone could help me out......thank youuuu

Mandala white satin is supposed to be a great low-odour option. But I see it's now been discontinued :(

Interested in what you can come up with

Sweet Skunk from PeakseedsBC is very low odor but also good quality smoke.

Northern Lights from the same is low odor too.

You'd never need a carbon filter for the Sweet Skunk for sure.

Kolossus - Sannies. It goes 10 weeks, but flower it at 2 weeks and get a great yield. Above average stone, minimal stink.

most sativa dominants are low odor. C99, sweet haze, 8 miles high, malawi gold & lemon skunk are some great highs that don't funkify. most of the time, i haven't even needed a carbon scrubber.

as mentioned NL5 is THE 1st choice for low odor cash cropping indicas. NL haze would be a nice low odor strain i bet

in the middle, i was really surprised by how odor free CH9 jack was as it looks like a straight up sea of green afghani, but it's potent happy buzz is merely heavy and not too tiring. i'd get that again before ever even trying NL5, but like saliva dominants better. the stinkiest one i've grown was haze skunk, and even that wasn't 1/4 as funky as most of the stuff people grow for cash

mandala's website has a space on the comparison chart for "low odor" and if you do a keyword search with that, there's probably banks that include that info too. personally, i don't get those who chase roadkill as a "bag appeal" trait when it screams "inferior afghani" to me, isn't exactly the greatest smell to begin with, and like you know, only alerts nosy neighbors to what you're up to when it's better they have no clue, even if you're legal as landlords aren't 420 friendly

i personally wouldn't call c99 a low odor strain.. she's not a road kill skunk, but far from low odor ime..

Bollox...........

C99 STINK as soon as the wind hits it (assume you use a fan?)
Lemon skunk (clue in the name skunk) FUCKING STINKS

Old school sativas have hardly any smell (thais , haze) but who wants to give 14+ weeks to a strain.

Straigt NL can be a low odour (depending on vendor as Pyramid NL STINKS)

I've come across a few strains over the years and my top rec to you is a 6 week 90% sativa that advertises a 'sweet and discreet smell' . It's true and it smells of lime and coffee with a hint of walnut. I love it! 42 -45 days is super fast even by indica standards.

c99 reeks like a dole pineapple factory.
LOL...mine was more of the mango reek but definitely not the lowest odor.

The 2 other posters that mentioned Peak BC NL and sweet skunk pretty much nailed it. I've run both, and both were easily the least funky.

Most funky by far was Frost Bros Chunky Monkey...which was actually an Escobar chocolate mother cross. Man, that shit I could never even run on a guerrilla grow(seriously)...worse than the old school road kill skunk imo.

i've grown c99 and northern lights and they were low odor. the cindy was extra low:there was no odor unless you brushed against it. had one nl that smelled to the high heavens, though.

I don't know how you will find a guaranteed low odor plant, particularly with four and that kind of light. Even low odor plants (which still have a slight scent) positively smell when you harvest and dry.

plus how are you going to cool that light and promote air exchange?

ETA: carbon filter with a exchange fan works great for removing any odor and work double time kicking off the heat of my 400

My Sweet Skunk really doesn't smell very strong. I'd feel pretty confident growing it w/o a carbon filter in my condo. Can't guarantee every plant will be like that, but the two I had were like that and smelled similarly. Also good smoke.

Maybe I have the wrong understanding of an exchange fan, but I'm not growing in a grow tent so I can't drill a hole in the wall to blow the air out anywhere else. I'm in a condo just like OGEvilgenius. If I have it wrong I'll reconsider using one, but that was my understanding

Also I know I can't find a guarantee anything, but there are definitely strains that are notoriously stinky, so I was wondering about the other side of the spectrum

also, it can smell once it's harvested and drying and curing, I just don't want something to smell while it's growing
