I started growing about 2 years ago. The hay smell has gone down as my experience has gone up.
100%, if it smells like hay going in the turkey bag it likely needs to lose some moisture. Lot of burping
And good burping schedule will eliminate the hay no problem. It’s all in the process
The introduction of carbohydrates during the flowering phase seems to overcome the issues talked about here
Have you ever used drops a balance or BAM?
I would highly recommend them for dry amendment or liquid feed systems will make a huge difference in your finished product

Good old blackstrap molasses is the best.
I think a lot of beginner growers read too far into a lot of the grow guides out there and spend too much time focusing on the trichome color before they verify other factors of the grow that indicate the plant is ready to harvest. This results in early harvests and bad tasting buds.
That's why you ALWAYS use a jewelers loup to check your trics and make sure it's mature and not taking her to early when the trics are still clear 👍💯
I got that hay smell from the harvest drying too fast before too I also feel like the quality of the genetics play a factor thanks for sharing the knowledge bro! 👍
I get the hay smell when drying it always worries me but when I start trimming it smell way better
Exactly why I wet trim my plants.
Yup if you leave it untrimmed it gets that hay smell gotta trim it while it’s wet or moist.
many leaves = many chlorophyll = hay smell
ive heard wet trimming causes sap/fluids from the cut stems/leaves to "bleed" onto the buds while drying, worsening the hay smell?
If it smells like hay before you trim, you need to let it hang dry longer. Trust me. When you think it's ready wait a few more days. It should never dry for less than a week. 2+ weeks is ideal but I understand some people live in dry areas. People rush the jaring process and that is the #1 cause of hay smell. If you hang long enough you don't even need to burp.
100% grew a plant two years ago in back garden still grew over a ft tall and produced 1 1/2 ounces just cut it too early but was forced to due to harsh weather conditions and going on holiday. Was some white widow aswell would have been great grinding it up still produced a pungent smell but when smoked just tasted like grass and could tell the terpines had not developed properly. But this no previous experience and just a bit water with added sugar and basic soil, think the turn out was pretty decent as a first attempt the amount of knowledge you learn is incredible, hopefully for many more in the future 👌
hmmm. This is odd. I have cured buds many ways. The only time I got a hay smell was when I dried the buds too quickly and what I though was ready for jars was actually still too moist internally and then it became a battle. However, the buds that I let dry properly at about 61% humidity and about 68 F have continued to have quality smells and taste. The tough part is understanding what the correct moisture level of the bud you are trying to jar or bag. Im almost certain incorrect moisture levels are the culprit and because I have tried many methods and my results continually pointed to moisture control prior to jarring the nugz.
I agree. Any bud can become hay smelling, and if your not careful you can get it pissy (ammonia) smelling.
the only reason why I slightly disagree is I have had very controlled drying rooms very standard practices and at times I still get a hay smell and And I've never been able to answer it until seeing some of the testings we did
60% humidity and 60 degreesF or as close to as possible… so a dark room with air conditioning, a dehumidifier, and a fan. Hang small branches and test for a dry snap on stems about a week in and compare the smoke flavor after 10 or 12 days dry 👍🏽
dont overdo the initial dry.
when burping jars, you want the RF in the jar to climb to 65-62% before you burp,
once it does not climb past 58% between burps any remaining hay smell is here to stay.
so: keep it over 58 until the hay smell is gone (i recommend over 60) ( over 65+ = mold risk! )
bruh...like 65 is risky. 68 is sure trouble
@@kmonty6188 yes, there is a balance to be struck, 65 should be considered upper limit.
that's a very fine line you painted yourself into with the humidity, one mistake either way in your entire harvest is ruined
@@BileDuctBalderdash not like i came up with that fine line... ofc the higher you go the more risk.. keeping it 60+ for the frist week and 58+ for the next 2 always works fine for me. i don't go 62+, too nervous.
@@BileDuctBalderdash the first jar i am smoking from will drop below 58 in the first week and get a hay smell...
The hay smell also comes from improper drying methods and having way too much moisture in the air on the first couple of days. Just trust me. Get that humidity in check and make sure your temps are perfect. You’re welcome.
I tried putting my harvest in jars asap last season, but I realized recently that drying it longer made the cure taste way better. Northern CAL. 209
❤❤thanks mark
I was getting hay smell every harvest until I started dropping the temps into the high 60s/low 70s during flowering.
Mine smell like hay the first 5-7 days of drying. Then smelled like beautiful fruity gas after
My non flushed plants turned brownish and my flushed ones stay fresh looking and smelling.
Hey Mark Happy 4th Brother! And i had NO IDEA about this! Thanks alot for the info. So what would you suggest to do about this bro? Aside from growing an unhealthy plant I didn't think the trics were effected unless you like let the plants trics amber out to the point where they start to degrade, but this cannibalism by the plant is very interesting and have always been told they stack on more trics as they mature and get closer to harvest! Man i may have missed something bc im confused as hell so im going to rewatch it! But all those bloom boosters and what not that claim to add terps and oils torwards thast few weeks of harvest is BS and a waste of money? Bc Imo its not good smoke without the smell and taste. It just takes away from the whole enjoyment and experience and tend to be harsh as hell on the lungs as well. If my smoke is terpless then im definitely doing something wrong! And the last thing you want to do is screw everything up in the end and waste all that hard work and time it took to get her to that point by not drying and curing your flower correctly! 💯👌😎🤘
Also Brother what is the email i send to, to get that "Drops of Balance" bc i want to start using it on my next grow if possible man. Thanks in advance and appreciate all you do for the canna community
A brother sorry i missed this man Happy 4th bro
Great info! Harvest in a couple days so I will be diligent
I get the hay smell every time I dry but it goes away and by the end of 2 weeks drying to jar, its gone. You dont want the plants to smell like terpenes while drying, this is a sign the temperature in the drying room might be too high. After jarring and burping the jars smell dank, especially if handing the buds.

Most of my homemade stuff gets a little bit of that hay smell after drying but it always disappears after a few days in jars.
Chlorophyll= hay smell? The rest of the terps overwhelm that smell. Sun dried Colombian Gold had it right, and brown or reddish weed was also spot on. Its all about the cure. So far i have never seen Dank go to gold in the modern era.
i mean yea.. every grow always smells like hay for a couple days but then the stank comes back . this is the chlorophyll being broken down
Nonsense. You are making stuff up. The hay smell is hexanol/hexanal from hexanoic acid, the precursor to cannabinoids and Marijuana's distinct hexanoate esters. If your bud smells like hay, you don't know how to produce Marijuana and will not be doing so under schedule 3.
Good information Mark thank you
Glad it was helpful!
If it smells and taste bad.thats what you got.fertilize and don't use city water.😅
You can treat your city water with drops of balance and make it amazing

@@PerfectGardensTV chloramine in my water.
dry and cure IN THE DARK
100% agree
I go by what the plant tell me works great every time
Thanks for sharing me too
I use bud candy to help hide the smell
Always want that hay smell after the first few days then it goes away...or does for me and should lol
Love how you started the episode saying "Hey" 😆 good stuff Mark III🔥👽🫡
Glad you enjoyed it
Nope it’s forever there.
That was great advice
lol iv grown some real crap in 90s 😂out behind the chicken coup 😂then one yr things changed ,we got a skunk plant 😂
Awesome thanks!!
You bet!
After drying out put it in a bag and stick it in the freezer
the hay smell if from stress plain and simple, usually it occurs if your temps and humidity fluctuate many times during grow and harvest , like you might move and not be able to burp the jar and keep the natural environment the plant wants and is trying to make for itself. Even if you chop the plant will always try to colonize its environment in some ways , thats just how plants work , they do it too the planet earth!
Interesting!
I’ve been growing for like a decade or so now and never had a hay smell, if your weed has a hay smell ever, you’re doing it wrong and should either invest in some hvac equipment or just buy weed instead. It’s a super easy to grow plant, it’s also easy to process after harvest it takes not even 5 minutes of reading to know you should keep a dry cool and moderately humid because aromatic compounds are volatile and begin to off gas at “room” temperature.
Arrogance isn't a good look man.
"Aromatic compounds are volatile "
Look, another fraud. Yes, frozen bodies stink more than hot ones...
I like the hay smell 🫢
Grove bags.
So if the plant starts losing terps at week 5-6 of flowering, should I harvest then? Why wait till week 8-10 to harvest?
No, it needs to ripen, would you eat a green banana!! Always check the trichomes, they go from clear to opaque then amber. I like somewhere around 60\40 opaque\amber more Amber =heavier stoned, and if your getting a hay smell then your doing something wrong
No because the plan is still putting on a lot of weight
You could harvest it if you were going after the terps specifically
This youtube grow guru is a fake. Cannabis flavor comes mostly from the lipoxygenase pathway and amino acid degradation. So do the effects. Terpene synthesis is only useful for methyl branched hemiterps that will attach to SH from aminos. None of the vape pen Leafly poster terpenes that potheads talk about are relevant to flavor or effect at all.
@perfect gardens How do i get rid of some aphidss!!!
Lady bugs🐞 , you can buy a matchbox full
Or Bug Zapper light.
Personally swat them yourself
I would highly recommend a product called organisheld to help with aphid problems

at daniel = spray with 'white oil ', standard name. its just dishwashing liquid ( i suspect is called 'dish-soap' in USA ) and cooking oil, mixed with water. Use google for more info on mixture quantities/percentages. Repeat every 3 days ( don forget Underside of leaves ). All will be gone in 10 -12 days..cheap and easy !
Dry at lower temp , humidity at 60%
❤
Peak terps
Can you harvest before your peak temps starts to decline
This man is talking out his ass.
Hay smell comes from the environment not being dialed in whej drying. My last few dry runs have had no hay smell at all, just terps.

Dude before you start recommending your other videos of yours at least get to the meat of the subject Jesus Christ, sweet Mary and Joseph, do you people just completly forget how to conduct yourselfs as normal human beings, if you strike up a conversation with someone you dont go before i get into anything with you you should check my other conversations with other people, (edit: I'm just going to walk away like I'm doing now thought I'd better explain it to you step by step incase the denseness was in the way, your just holding people hostage just because you feel entitled to it because your giving out "free content" no your going to stay in obscurity like you are now enjoy )
Easy there fella.. that's how people get more views, recommend previous content. 👌
I don't understand
