I have my medical card and grow my own meds for a few years now. All my buds taste the same no matter what strain, how long I cure, how long I flush for, I've tried everything!
Flower tent 4x4x7 - 2 400w HPS - FF happy frog soil with FF nutes, just switched to GH Flora series nutes and superthrive.
I live in a very dry climate, so it's near impossible to dry the buds in open air. I've used a plastic storage bin with a hygrometer to dry the buds in and keep the humidity over 60%.
I've tried different strains, I've tried different nutes (Fox Farms, Bionicare, General Hydroponic), atm I just started using GH flora series to try to test that out and see if it makes a difference.
I flushed the damn plants for 3 weeks this time thinking I wasn't flushing them good enough or something.. using florakleen and distilled water and all...
I waited till the trichromes were 50/50 amber.. I bottled the buds up after day 8 days of drying, when I was unable to keep the humidity above 60% anymore, the stems were still bending at this point, but in the past, leaving it at 55 or below is the end of any type of curing that is going to happen in the bottles, so I bottled it before the stems crack due to being in a low humidity state.
Now in the bottles, they just smell sweet, kind of planty. No weed smell. Story of my life, harvest 15 no different than any other harvest, with any other changes I've made!!!!!
VERY FRUSTRATED let me know what you guys think, I'd sit here and give you all the details of my garden but this post would be huge, please just ask me what info you need and I will fill you in.
Thanks for anyone that is willing to help.
