flavoring bud. [help] [ideas]

so lately ive been wondering how breeders favor bud. like blueberry etc. i know those ones are genetic

and i know im not gonna be able to do that but i wanted to do something without using tabacco flavoring. [cuz thats.....fuckin gay]

maybe adding something to the water during the last weeks of flowering?

or putting a lemon peel in the curing jar......

i dunno. anybody ever had any success? any more ideas?

well wat i did one time out of no where me my brother and my friend were about to get blowed ( high) n i went to go get a cup of cool-aid n my friend say ay why dont we dip some of the bud in the cool-aid and i bet it would taste liek it i said hell naw wtf u trippin on he said bet i said bet and the bud was free so we dipped it in some cool-aid then squeezed the liquid out and dried that shit up threw it in the bowl and whalaa cherry flavored bud i was thinkin about doin a water cure like that but im not completly sure bout it gotta look up some info n shit

lol koolaid.

wheres the elite at? you guys know any techniques?

I've thought about putting a vanilla bean in the jar, but haven't tried it.

Fresh pot leaf/ves . . . uncured moist little buds. Add to stash container to revitalize flavor/texture.

im tellin u mang try the kool-aid it works

im gonna have way too much bud at harvest to dip it all in koolaid and then dry it out again....haha

maybe ill try it on like a couple g's or something

i juss wanna experiment with some of this grow. so maybe i might do the vanilla bean thing.

Last cpl weeks of flowering add Molasses (1tbs per gal.) with every watering

im already goin to do that.

but i heard it doesnt really alter the taste.

theres a couple threads about this. fdd started one about putting stalks in food coloring right after he cut them. it worked pretty well and gave some crazy looking bud but the food coloring ruined the bud. it looked great but when you smoked it tasted like shit because you were burning food coloring. then after that someone started a thread about trying to use different flavors in the same way and alot of great ideas were thrown out but there wasnt a real consensus on if it worked or not. also there is a proven method called honey curing. this is where you put the stalks in a bag of honey so that they honey gets sucked up into the bud. ill look for links in a sec and edit them in.

heres the links:
fdd's thread (color of my dreams): https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/9902-color-my-dreams.html
bzilem's thread (taste of my dreams): https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/73385-taste-my-dreams-idea.html

cant be asked to look for the honey curing. theres a link in one of those threads. also im sure you could search for it or something
hope this helps

concentrated coolaid and water mix (no sugar) put in a spray bottle. mist and let dry.

thanks icepik

Ive smelled the honey pot in which your talking, whether or not it was cured in honey i have no idea. Burned fine though and tasted like regular green.

On another hand, as far as adding flavor to your plant Ive tried an orange peel wrapped lightly around a fresh bud. That ended up tasting like orange but it was very very slight taste. Another thing you could try, is go to your local head shop and they have flavor drops there. Honestly IMO unless its a hydro setup im not sure how well flavoring would work. as anything you put in your dirt for fruit/food etc will rot = bugs. whereas hydro is liquid and your flavor would be directly absorbed into the roots. Then again, thats just my common sense saying this, havent actually done it myself.

ive heard bad things about the flavor drops(tasty puffs is the brand im refering to). basically how they work is you put drops on already dried and cured buds and let them dry again and they supposedly have the flavor but from what i hear its not very good. as for adding stuff to a hydro set up, the roots of plants are used as a filter system and most likely wont let any flavoring into the plant.

yea im juss experimenting. seeing what i can come up with.

but tasty drops isnt an options.

Do the peelings.

Adding bluberries,orange compost,lemon compost; none of these changed the smell or taste of the buds. It helped the soil, but did very little to flavor or taste.
