Why? No smell in flowering or harvest?!

I have been adding carbohydrates in flower and I think it helps a lot in supplying the hydrocarbons the plant needs to build carbon chain organic terps. I went through a quart of "Bluegold suprcarb" this run, and I think it helped. Have a gallon coming. Also added "Mammoth P". Soil in bags on a SWICK. Not sure what ha stuff will do to the soil when it is amended and it cooks for the next run.

All good points so far, especially timing. Excess nitrogen is a big one, temps are most often overlooked.
Over 70F temps will begin vaping off the most fragile monoterps. Over 80F risks bursting trichs and releasing even more. Burst trichs also expose cannabinoids to oxygen, beginning their degredation earlier than harvest time.(This means more CBN, sleepier at harvest time)

It ia difficult to smell my plants without disturbing them or raising the heat. Every strain is so damn terpy at harvest it's ridiculous. :)
