When do your plants from seed start to smell? - New Growers - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Looks like I was wrong! I assumed they did not start to smell until sometime around flowering. But today I stuck my head in the cabinet to look at my little babies, and I was confronted with that delicious weed smell. They are all of 11-12 days old, and faintly delicious smelling.

You know, flowers are the smelly part of most plants... So that's what I was assuming.
Is it obvious I haven't grown before?

It's not a strong odor yet, but I think it will only get stronger!

I need to get an air filter much sooner than I thought.

The earthy veg odor you are smelling is nothing like the sweet flowery aroma of buds.

It varies, some strains I've run don't start to smell until well into flowering, and others were stinky little buggers when they were only a few weeks old

All strain dependent I have DP brainstorm 6 weeks into flower and you wouldnt know I was growing,but my ice cream clones at 3 weeks veg stink already.If stealth is an issue there a thread on low odor strains in the strain forum

I find my room gets pretty smelly late veg/early flowering 3-4 weeks and then, after culling males, there is a dull period with minimal smell before getting fairly stinky mid to late flower.

and we all start somewhere, I'm still learning everyday

My Kaya Gold started to smell spicy/skunky only 2 weeks after it popped. I cant wait till it starts flowering. Kinda hoping it's a stinky male I can make seeds with.
