My buds kind of smell like weed, but too much grassy smell. What did I do wrong?

Hey y’all

I have had my buds curing for a couple months now and while it smells like weed, it’s not pungent and you can smell the vegetive material. I hang dry my buds in the dark with sugar leaves on and fan leaves off, they hang there until the buds feel dry. That’s about 5-7 days. Stems never snap but bend. And burp everyday for 5-10 minutes in the first two weeks. My temps don’t get too hot for extended periods. I grow with a quantum board and they get up to 84 and keep there. I did harvest in August so it was a hot season for it. I grow in Coot’s mix and use only organic nutrients and top dresses. Did I harvest early? This happened as well with a grow before, I’m stumped. Like street weed smells more pungent, but this weed will get you way higher, and a more pleasant high at that

I harvested 1 Ak47 auto i bit to early and after curing it still has some tiny tiny hints of a grass/veg flavour.

Harvested too early and/or too much initial moisture still when you did; you mentioned branches "bent but didn't snap", well you want the smallest up to the most medium-sized of the branches to snap when bent.

Also you need to cure properly to get rid of the grassy taste.

Flower longer, dry longer.

Flower ~70 days

Dry should be ~14 days

Your plant may have finished if you didnt starve for the final 3 weeks, and harvest may not have been early at all
Yeah maybe. But at this point on the Trollitup.org i mostly get confused rather than enlighten when it comes to info. Its just to many opinions here :lol: :lol: so for some of the ladys i will flush and some wont get flushed. Just to see and collect the info myself :peace::bigjoint:
