Yes it is perfectly normal for your buds to smell like cut grass while they are drying. In fact, that is what the curing process is all about.

Curing is simply the process of extracting unwanted chlorophyll from your buds immediately after they have dried. Chlorophyll is a chemical that plays a key role in photosynthesis and is what makes plants green. With uncured bud, the chlorophyll will overpower its flavor and odor and is also very harsh on the lungs, making for an all around bad session. If you want your bud to be as dank as possible, you gotta take the time to properly cure it.

Try to let it hang until it's good and dry usually two weeks depending on room humidity temp what not. If you put it in the jars too wet and start to cure you kinda trap it in and the hay/tea smell will still linger cuz it never dissipated while hanging.

Hope I answered your question :)
