Should my plant smell like weed?

**DrGreenThumb** · 02-01-2007, 04:41 PM

I know this may sound like a stupid question but I have 2 plants that i have grown from seeds i found in some weed i bought. I know its not a good idea to grow this way but i have anyway.
One of the plants smells really strong like proper weed but the other doe'nt smell like anything at all?
Should i just get rid of the weak smelling one as i think it may be crap?
Any advice anyone?
Cheers.

I've had both of these happen to me...my first grow my plant didnt smell until flower..the grow I'm on now I could smell like a couple weeks into veg...No sense in getting rid of the weak smelling one..shoot for all we know it could be your most potent one...plus either way it free weed haha

Also sense you only have two whaqt if you threw out the female and kept the male then it would be all for nothing

to possibilities on that:
-either you got two different strains with maybe similar characteristics
-or you got one strain but two sexes there

if last is the case you have two options now, simply kill off the male one or keep it for a bit longer until the balls are well developed, that takes about 4 weeks and then cut it down but keep a branch with balls sit in a water glass separate from the female one. with the pollen you gain from the branch you kept you can pollunate one of the lower buds on your female and get on this way seeds for your next grow. great source for independent seed supply

if you interested into this search for a thread videoman made about 1 or 2 weeks on pollination

I've had weed go full term through flowering with nothing but a minty sort of smell. And I've smoked it and it did the job.

I wish I could tell you about how I got it, but my source is a complete jackass and anything I repeated would probably be a complete lie.

heat was a big prob if my friend's grow. the plants didn't smell at all as they weren't potent. the buds dried an ultra floral smell which tasted unbelievable. but you could toke all day long and not catch a buzz.
