Why do my buds or plants not smell strong

I’m not getting a strong cannabis smell off any of my plants. They look beautiful they’re covered with trichomes but no smell. I’m running fans all the time for air circulation. I have an intake fan and exhaust fan. My temperature never gets above 75 and the humidity is maintained by a humidifier. But I’m not getting the Cannabis smell that I want. Any advice on what I might be doing wrong. They are also getting Jack’s 321 nutrients fish shit and recharge

Its coming trust me… let the process finish. When you harvest youll come back with a different story :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Some are stinky some not. Low odor strains are all over for stealth. At the end you will get some and a couple weeks into cure they will produce that nice smell.

I already harvested and dried. It’s curing now but I had no smell that was enticing. Tons of Cloudy trichomes though

Smell usually comes after the curing.

Hmm that shocks me…they look dank AF! What are they growing in?

My plants always smell dank in flower, and at harvest. A good dry/cure will enhance these aromas…a bad dry/cure can wipe all that out.

I too am wondering if you have a low odor strain…

My GDP looked just like your buds. Same thing happened to me. Its taken 60 days of curing for the terps to really start popping.

I’m growing in coast of Maine soil. I have three separate circulating fans in my tent. I also have an intake fan pulling air from my lung room and an exhaust fan venting air to the outside. I run those pretty hard sometimes. Is it possible I’m getting too much air flow over my plants

I’ve thought this often but ive never seen a “low odor” seed strain marketed as such.

Northern lights is a great low odor strain, not sure if it’s marketed that way though :love_you_gesture:

Just a different point of view as an old guy,
I have had people come in the house and say immediately they can smell the plants, but I can stand right next to them and not smell a thing. Cant smell the cat box either…Lol

Ever since i had Covid last thanksgiving i cant smell hardly anything. I cant taste or smell the difference in my wifes Chili and spaghetti sauce. Flavors i loved i cant stand anymore and vice versa.

I had Covid and lost my smell and taste for a week. Thankfully it came back. I cant imaging how awful it would be to lose it permanently. So sorry yours is still gone. That just sucks.
What it did leave for me is vertigo. I can just be sitting in a chair and suddenly things start spinning. I try not to drive much as its not great when driving.

Same for me. My wife says she can smell it outside of my shed/grow room. I can’t really smell it unless right upon it.

I kinda think we get used to the smell as it’s growing since most of us check our plants daily.

Maybe it’s like that commercial……nose blind??

I usually dont notice a lot of smell unless i disturb them. i do get some smell during late flower with a fan circulating.

We are growing with the same soil and nutrients. I am not sure if this has anything to do with it but, my first harvest didn’t have much odor either. It did take awhile to get some odor back after a month of curing. I am noticing more odor and better odor day by day now.
I also think that with Jacks 321 you have to nail the feeding times real close so that they are well fed in flower. I got some MKP for this run to add during flower to see if that will help get the terpenes popping better.
Those look fantastic!
