Evening all! So my Green Crack girls are on day 37 of flower. I do have a grow diary but this was more to share my revelation when I opened the tent tonight.
Where we live there's pretty much one strain of biker weed, grow it fast, get it out, no cure. We always just called any weed with a strong smell that knocked you on your ass 'skunk'. I didn't know what a terpene was until 20 years into my smoking career. Don't get me wrong I've been properly off my tits on that shit, but more in the past than now. A lot of the best stuff comes from interstate and flu has put the knock on that.
So I was inspired to try my first grow, and picked Green Crack for first run. I've loved the whole process and learned so much, mostly how much I didn't know about my favourite plant in the world. So I kept hearing about people talking about skunky aromas as a specific thing and didn't really get it. Until I opened my tent tonight
I only saw a skunk once when I lived in Maine and it was gross, but I can definitely see something of that here. More like wet dog. Dank - now I know where that comes from too haha. Really animal smell but in the most delicious possible way. There's bubblegum and citrus and pineapple in there too. Every day they do something new and I get to experience something that someone who loves this plant so much really should've been across years ago!
Interested to hear from other new growers how they're going and stuff they are learning. There's some really awesome first grows ticking along here. Soon we get to compare flowers!!
