Just as the title says. After this run, my third indoors here. I have found that every strain has a common taste, that’s prominent, they taste like dryer sheets or perfume.
I can visibly see no mold under a scope.
It has happened using three different mediums.
It has happened no matter when I pull them.
It happens no matter how I dry them and cure or store them.
Is it the water? The air? Me? The 150 year old building? Anyone else out there have this happen. I’ve used many variables to figure this out.
I have used Dr zymes along the way as the other plants in the house have knats and they like to make their way to places they shouldn’t. But the only common thing among them is
A. Water
B. The apartment I’m in
C. Me.
Help as I’m kinda at the point where I’m gonna have to start paying for test to see if I’m really sucking lately.
This is wierd to hear of like this, is it the same every time? Did I read that right? That would tick me off. I grew some fems continously for 2 years and they smelt of mint. Now I can’t stand that when I smell it on a plant…
That sucks. It sounds like it’s the building. Something is eking out of it or something, I have no idea but that would be my best guess. Especially if it’s the 3rd time. And outdoors had been different smell like you said. Same strain. Definitely put it on that building…
Good topic. I’ve been thinking about this for a while. I have never had this happen to my plants, but I have a guy who’s bud, even while having unique tastes, always has strong drier sheets taste.
I know he feeds strong, I always chalked it up to that. Like, 2:3 Ocean forwst, 1:3 worm castings, and full strength GH Flora
What are dryer sheets made of? Dryer sheets are composed of liquid softeners, lubricants and fragrances coated on a layer of fabric, which is often made of polyester or cellulose fibers. When included in a load of laundry, the dryer heat works to warm and release these ingredients onto your fabrics.
Well, it would make sense that if you use them in your laundry in the same house or room as your plants that it’s gonna affect your plants.
So I have run across this with another fella I know. All his bud Ive tried taste the same. At least to me. Happened at a grow I worked at to. But there it tasted like nutmeg or something
Nope. Actually have used new pots or buckets or whatever each time. First was plastic grow bags, next was buckets from the bucket company using soil or Rockwool, and this last time was coco.
