Autoflower odor

This is all going to depend on temperature and humitidty, to be honest.

The least smell I ever got was LR2, and it still was stinky, especially if you know what weed smells like growing. No easy way out on this one...

LR2 can smell super strong whilst growing, Possibly pheno dependant but have a bunch of them growing whichever phenos and they will smell. I found Fruit Salad from SGS is probably the least stinky I have personally grown. It still smells just not typical skunky/weedy odour.

The easy way out is to get a good carbon filter and replace after each grow or have a spare new one for backup tucked away just incase.

Worth the small investment to stay safe.

LR2 stank to high hell for me, however Easy Ryder and Afghan Kush Ryder were pretty mild, IME. I could hardly smell them until I opened the tent. Others have had quite the opposite experience, though.

That is weird, because I have grown alot of different autos and I havent found to many that stink at all, ofcourse I grow outside too, but seriously even when I was indoors I have never found autos to be to bad in comparison to bigger stuff, but thats just my experience.

Good luck I hope you find what you need

Fruit Salad is low smell and like Mitch said not really like weed, it will be out in about 3 months check for the thread soon, LR#2 REEKS!!! pure skunk-ass if you feed it organics, seems less so with chem ferts but still very smelly.

Sorry cant be more help but there is a lot that will effect the way your plants smell. just use a filter and no worries, except the LR#2! that can destroy filters!

I'm 30 days into some afghan kush auto's and they are very smelly if I turn off my fan that is attached to my carbon scrubber. You can't beat a good fan and carbon filter/scrubber to get rid of smell. It's a must imo. My last grow didn't smell like this when it was almost harvested, but it was bagseed from some mids.

Purple jems or LR#1 comes to mind.
Often there is strong odor variation between phenos thats why some people can tell you LR#2 or dieselryder (both stinkers in my experience).
Probably new generation sativa autos stink a little less or at least not skunky, still have to trying something though.

If you have to worry about about odor use carbon filtration, you won't be sorry. One little 6" plant inside a grow chamber can smell up a whole house. I've tried at least 20 different auto strains and I wouldn't trust any of them to be low odor in situations where authorities or others would notice. Be safe.

Just put my easy ryder buds in a brown paper bag in my basement after hanging to dry for 5 days. The basement reeked like skunk. I hung some onions and garlic next to weed and that seems to have worked as a cover scent.
