A question of aroma-lol

[hurtle]

Hey Riverrat, thanks for the info. I've been looking up seed banks etc today, and PSkunk looks like it might be the go. I noticed on another forum that there was a question about payment into their NAB account in Australia. I called the bank this arvie and nope--don't need any ID to make a deposit, just the bsb and account No.

 

They got a nice sounding plant called Chocolate Chunk-. They also got white Widow on special atm. I looked up the Heavy Duty Fruity too and looks like it could be a nice grower for a smallish space.

 

Went looking for me wardrobe today at the Salvos. Jes, these guys must be making a fortune!!! $70 bucks for an old robe and $30 bucks for delivery-. Anyway--what you gunna do? Don't have the stuff to make a grow closet from scratch so got to bite the bullet and pay the man.

 

Thanks for the info so far guys. If anyone's grown and smoked choc chunk, be interested to know what its like. Also, was wondering if there are any nice Aussie strains around which would be good to keep an eye out for.

 

Cheers

Back to the topic of aroma, most strains will emit odour, but you could plant something outside to mask the odour. Do some research on plants/bushes that have a strong odour, I know night jasmine for instance gives off a really strong scent at night.

 

If worried about guests have a convienient pot of curry or something stinky bubbling away, tell em its rendang, that stuff is supposed to cook for hrs.

 

I has a funny experience with odour once. During one of my earlier grows I decided that I wanted to speed growth by carbon dioxide production. With minimal research I went and got some brewers yeast, filled about 20 2ltr coke bottles and brewed away... Had exhaust fans on timers ect. Well it bloody worked too well! Id over done it.

In 2 days my plants went from stinky fruity ladies to a flat leafy smell......I had a big panic, done some research, apparently I had increased stomata size and not to get too technical my ladies were breathing out their odour!

 

I got rid of the co2 and odour returned to the room after a few days, though not as stinky as before. The resulting harvest was pretty good, but I stay away from co2 production now. I dont think you need it.

--thats such a good idea about the Rendang Bongaloid-. I thought of putting some Jasmine out the front, or something else with a nice sweet, strong smell. I think I'll follow your advice about the Co2--don't want to complicate things too much for me first grow.
