No need to flush that much. Some strains have a chemical smell. I had some super sour diesel haze, and it smelled like petroleum. Guess that's where the diesel part came in.

What kind of chemical does it smell like? None of the things you listed would create that smell. Is it like ammonia or diesel fuel or bleach what kind of chemical are we talking?

What goes through your head when you decide to post all in upper case? If you handed that post to your teacher what would they say?

jonny quest if u dont wanna help get da fuk outta here with ur low ass rep

..ya its kind of like a bleach almost smell irie
Do you use bleach to clean. If you do stop and use something like h202 or hygrozyme. If your ever clean your grow area wig bleach you havegot to be sure that you rinsed like 50 times and still the bleach smell could remain. I don't think it was any of the.mutes you used. If you need to sterilize go with isopropyl alcohol instead.

I wish you could still like comments.. I had some diesel that tasted like butane... didn't matter what I did to flush it. Not my cup of tea, so I phased it out of my rooms over a grow or two. How did you cure it?

That would not be a bleach smell that would be a more prolonged green/grass or chlorophyll smell. Are you feeding with high N past week 4 of flower?

Lol, ya you do..

Edit... ok.. so you are using straight water for flush... and doing it 2 weeks?... but it's in other strains as well...
I'd say cure it longer.. but my weed is fairly good right off the drying lines... with no cure it smokes great straight away.
So I dunno without asking alot of other questions man.. sounds like you're doing it right to me.
