My buds kind of smell like weed, but too much grassy smell. What did I do wrong?

how long did u put her under 12/12 for before u chopped? most likely harvested early.
At least ten weeks


Harvested too early and/or too much initial moisture still when you did; you mentioned branches "bent but didn't snap", well you want the smallest up to the most medium-sized of the branches to snap when bent.

too much moisture during the end flower? It never got above 50, kept it mostly in the 40’s. It’s damn near impossible to get below 40. The buds felt crispy when I put them in jars.It was still spongy in the middle but not wet spongy.
 
The strain is Blue Dream (SC Cut) x Chocolate Diesel. I def think I could have ran it longer. But they looked finished

Good job it looks nice. Can you describe the flavor??!
 
Riu does have a reputation for childish folk who love to rattle cages. Not even sure how these guys got so smart, osmosis I'm sure. There are mature,intelligent people here who will help you..my best advice is listen to lots of opinions, read up for yourself in the journals and follow people you see actually trying to grow their mind as well as pot..hang in there and learn to use the ignore button. Unfortunately you can't smack the fuck out of internet trolls..probably don't even grow. Welcome :wall: :peace: bongsmilie :bigjoint: and if your trolling :finger:
 
How did it smell when it was dry off the stem?
If it smelled grassy then. It’s genetics.
Good genes will have good smelling bud from even 4 weeks of Flower. But if she smelled good before you bucked her into a jar. You sealed it with to much moisture.

I just ignore em, they’ll go away if you don’t give them attention. Thanks for the encouragement


Those look fine for chopping, it wasn't early. It's likely the bud wasn't dry enough before you jarred, even with the outsides being crispy. They hay smell doesn't leave if it's too moist.

Make sure the buds easily snap off the stems before they go into jars.

I’m just afraid of over drying them. I’ve done that before but will admit I wasn’t as good as a grower then

It smelled like oil rags, smelled great, I guess it had too much moisture content
