Weed turned dark orange after drying, smells sorta weird, maybe?

I am not sure if this helps, but here's a video with a magnifying glass x40. And I don't know how to describe the smell. Maybe if you have any aromas you recognize to be bad that're more common that I can associate it with?

I guess you want to hear that it's okay? Good luck, hope the next grow works out better for you!

Like, I think it's mostly the lighting so far that's been pointed out. Or else I'm just an amateur at figuring it out.

*Sigh* I wish I knew. Like what, do I need a microscope?

I was close to a gorilla once in the San Francisco Zoo; it was a big Silverback male, & its some scary shit how imposing they are in real life! However the smells were just zoo-ish in general, and no gorilla urine was smelt in particular. These days from what I understand the whole city pretty much smells like a zoo

It looks ok to me. And the pistils being orange doesn't mean anything. Both the WW I just harvested have bright orange pistils. You say it doesnt smell how it should. It needs to be dried correctly. If not you'll get strange smells, it sure won't smell like it did on the plant and right after harvest. Usually the chlorophyll smell, or a combo of that other things. I have one drying right now that smell of lime, pine, and a hint of gas. Growing it only smelled of pine.

Pretty odd. I don't know how peatmoss smells like. But it's a, very unnatural gross kinda smell. It doesn't seem sweet, or anything like that. It's hard to exactly describe the smell other than very odd. Not really like cat piss. But it doesn't smell like what it's suppose to like when it's dried?

Here's some other images if it helps:

That's a ballsy statement lol ...that's not a PC proclamation these days. You'll have to give it a more sensitive identification, like it smells like meadow muffins or prairie oysters or some other colloquial expression referring to crap. A zoo implies animals and people get all riled up if you go ridiculing animals or their scent.
