Strange smell and drooping buds
I figure im about a week away from harvest but all of the sudden my plant has a bad smell and some of the buds are drooping way down. ive been trimming some fan leaves recently. im wondering if i should just harvest now because of the bad smell or wait and see what happens. plant looks fine exept for a few leaves with holes in them. please help. thanks.
whats your humidity and temps in the room? a high humidity near the end can lead to budrot that starts in the middle of the bud. by the time you see it, its too late. the bud will start to turn to mush inside.
last year i had to chop a week early when i caught it just starting to happen.
just because the buds are drooping doesnt mean something is wrong. they could just be fattening up and need to be supported.

What do u mean exactly by bad smell? Can u take a picture of the plant? Is the soil soggy? Have u taken a plant out of the pot to look at the roots?
We need more info to help.
Yeah, you could have stagnant medium (soil) or reservoir (hydro),
sniff around and flush with clean water if found.
my humidity is usually around 40 sometimes 50. thought about bud rot but everything looks pretty good. im using a hydroponic system ive been changing the water every week and im using the soul sythetics line of nutes which are staining the roots i believe so i cant tell if i have root rot or not.
the smell i kinda just almost poopy or something hard to explain almost smells like moth balls. also i am currently flushing the whole system with filtered water.

what would you recomend for supporting the buds.Originally Posted by smoke and coke
You can tie your buds up using some hemp or string. just make sure that there is plenty of slack around the stem. tie the string from the bud to one of your rods in your tent, or if you're using just a regular room use some push pins or something.

I believe... Dirty Diaper/Poop/Ammonia/Basement sort of smell = mold is forming.
Maybe the flushing has been a little too much?
Had a batch of Government Mule do that.
Don't think it's too late, but that smell will stick with it through the curing process. It's sort of rank.
Maybe ease off on the flushing?

It works like a vaporizer. We'll get stoned through the vents on the way there.
dont just tie it with string and a regular knot. make a bowline, or some other knot that leaves a LOOP with the stem inside, that way, when the stem grows, the loop wont damage it.
youtube link on bowline knot. i do this for all my tying needs, its easy to do and undo. http://youtu.be/Q9NqGd7464U
