Plants have no smell from clones to jars.

first off the same has everything to do with the strain and a little to do with how you dry it. you can really fuck up sum dank if you bag it to early. second I ran a flood and drain setup in the past and I ran it at 6.2 I know the charts say 5.8 look at a back of a humboldt nutrient bottle and read the directions for hydro it will say sumthing like 6.3. In my oppinion it varries from strain to strain......eat a brownie

I believe he should install his RO system since he already has one and report results. Anyone ever smelled sulfur in well-water before? I would'nt give this to your plants could have lime calcium and other non beneficial stuff in it. How they have no smell through vegetation and all is what stumps me. Everyone here can talk about a cure until their fucking blue in the face...if them bitches wasn't stinking when you cut them down then aint shit happening when you jar it bub.
I don't know what the hell that dudeguy was talking about for most of thread.

clones ph at 5.9 veg at 6.3 and flowering at 6.5

ok i just noticed this...and wow... ok all that hot air for nothing but this is a significant finding.

if you are using soiless medium... you are using the wrong pH man!! you should keep your pH at 5.6-5.8 at all times, look at this chart for more clarification... you have been using pH levels for soil mediums, effectively locking out a vast majority of the base nutrients in your soil-less medium. you are using a flood and drain set-up with rockwoold and coco-coir right? That is hydroponics man, adjust your reservoir pH appropriately

ive had 8 different strains from different seed banks all with no smell nothing

beansly you took the words right out of my mouth lol hell when i am in flower and or drying buds im like fck wish they had no smell :))
it is good for growing indoors cause theres no smell and for transporting ,but for the sale ,people equate smell with potentcy not so good there...

His PH is within respectable ranges, this will not affect the flavour very much at all.

Get your facts straight before you google the 'correct ph for ganja' You will find people use a whole range of PH's some of them very unorthadox. I run anything from 5.8-6.8 in soil dependent on the strain and stage of growth.

You seem to see this as a little win when in actual fact the aim is to fulfill the OP's request.

To the OP go and buy some flower enhancers and boosters. See how you do on your next run :)

i have been using flavor enhancers in this grow with no change in smell and flavor....

please everyone stop arguing its not why i posted this thread we are better than that!!!!!in a nutshell i can take clones from the same mother plant half outside half indoors the outside plants stink a half a mile away while flowering and even more during drying and curing the indoor plants will not smell at all nothing all from the same mother the only difference is outdoor gets rain water indoor gets well water . reverse osmosis water filter system is being installed right now ,gonna get a bottle of calmag to have on hand in case i develop a cal def, i have 24 plants budding right now put into flowering onthe 1st of september,lets see what happens ......

try bumping the pH down to 5.6-6 range for those in flower, this puts you in a much more balanced nutrient spectrum, using 6.5 will put you in a heavy calcium and magnesium spectrum

Also do you record ppm levels in your reservoir during flower? At 6 weeks 12/12 im usually at about 1000ppm with nutes and water, pushing it to around 1300 on week 7 and on....though it really does depend on the plants insofar as how high u can push it. I grow from seed though, not clones...

im using coonut fiber as my medium soon gonna use the aquamist system still need some equipment to get that done...

Cocofiber, or coco-coir, is not the same as soil, it has no nutrients in it...just very good at retaining moisture. What are you feeding your plants and how are you feeding them?

Some Strains look awesome from day one and just wont give you any taste for shit.I look at em like a blank Canvas.If it has some good sized nugs and is dense I would save a clone for breeding but if ya arent into that just cut your losses and shitcan the strain.

nah that aint the issue, he is taking clones off of an outdoor plant...the buds he gets from outdoor smell good, but the clones he grows inside have no scent

You want nice tasting indoor green !

To get it to compare with the outdoor taste you will need to grow in soil or have a helluva nutrient regime to get decent flavour. Now I know that the Dutch Passion Blueberry is a wicked strain, smelly fruity all that jazz but the last guy I knew who grew it used guano and organic teas to keep the flavour nice and strong while growing in coco.

What flowering enhancers did you use ?

If your using enhancers and such I really wonder if it could be environmental.

You know what they say; if you keep changing the product but the results are the same, it's probably you.

I ve heard that coco coir is an amazing medium for growth and yield but is lacking in the taste department. YOu say that clones from the same plant act differently in different environments. That should tell you right there that it's not the plants. Like someone else said, get back to the fundamentals. Your soil, nutrients, lights source, your water and your air. If you can, try to mimick your outdoor grow as best as possible, and if your water smalls like sulfer, you're probably gonna need to use that R/O system or at least find a way to collect the rain water.
I'd bet for sure that it's your water, nutrients and medium in that order. Use pH'd r/o water. Get yourself some quality organic nutrients and make sure that includes some kind of beneficial bacteria like Great White Shark, Humboltd's Myco Madness or Advanced Nutrients Voodoo Juice. I get the idea that the sulfur is doing some funky stuff to your medium and the biota within. And maybe thing about switching to another soilless mix like ProMix or Sunshine #4. Most smokers seem to agree that bud grown organically in live soilless mix tastes the best. At the very least, take care of that water situation. I bet it has something to do with the water that messing up your nutrient balance. Good luck and don't give up

PS
Flowering/flavor enhancers aren't necessary when grown right, and anyways it would only be a band-aid over your problem. You should get to the root of why this is happening.

There are some shit seeds being passed and sold as the shit.I had ordered two batches of White Widow,One batch was skunky as hell while the other had no scent @ all.No taste either.I've been growing for over 30 yrs.

Luck with the pheno's and just natural variation in plants. I am currently on a quest to find a stinky pheno and it involves me cracking 35 seeds across 8 strains to find something really special to keep as a mother.

Its just a fact of nature.

Thats why I stick to cuttings.There is a good size group of us down here and we trade out some really good strains.I was trying to find a WW Male in the batch but out of 17 plants not one male.I need some world class pollen for a C/O strain I have.If it dies its gone forever and I cant let that happen.If I had seeds to backbreed with I wouldnt be so worried about always having a Mom.
