Top 5 Low Odour Cannabis Strains To Keep Stench Under Control

Hiding the smell of cannabis can be necessary to avoid the legal or social consequences of growing your own marijuana. There are discreet growing setups that incorporate carbon filters, although this is not a fool-proof way of keeping your grow room under wraps. It depends on how much space and money you can invest. It is also better to vent your filtered, exhausted air away from neighbours if possible. If you are only growing a few plants, an open jar of ONA gel can neutralise odors for 4–6 weeks.

If you are ready to cultivate cannabis in your own home, then be prepared for how much it can reek, especially when flowering. Working around cannabis so often will desensitise you to the smell. You'll get so used to it, you may not notice it on your clothes or hair. Take regular precautions to keep your whole house fresh and clean, while also keeping your grow room well-ventilated. Trying to mask it with another smell runs the risk of merely producing two distracting smells on top of each other.

One thing you can do at the source of the problem is choose to grow strains that are inherently less pungent. You have a surprising amount of variety when it comes to strains that don't smell as strong. However, they will still produce some smell you must account for. If you want strains with a less powerful scent though, don't be worried; their effects will not be any weaker, they will simply attract less attention while growing. The 5 strains below represent varieties from the RQS catalogue that are known to produce less of an odor than most other strains.

NORTHERN LIGHTS

Indoor growing of this classic strain is, by design, easy for the novice grower. The spicy, earthy aroma of Northern Lights sometimes has fruity undertones when smoked. When it is growing, however, the smell is more generic. Grow this discreetly, and you will still yield sticky, resinous buds. The THC content often surpasses 20%, providing powerful indica effects which relax the body. Aside from producing strong yields in 7–9 weeks, it makes a great mother plant, aiding in the continuation of low odor cultivation.

BLUE MYSTIC

This wonderfully earthy strain is most likely a hybrid of Northern Lights and Blueberry genetics. The flavonoids and terpenes of Blueberry have followed through into the sumptuous-tasting Blue Mystic. Its fruity berry aroma with hints of lavender is a divine accompaniment to its arresting indica high. The fruity flavours of this plant will also help to mask the classic cannabis stench across its 8–10 weeks of flowering.

ROYAL JACK AUTO

Harvest this plant within 70 days and enjoy a very pleasant high from Royal Jack Auto. It is an autoflowering variety of Jack Herer, named after the cannabis activist whose tireless energy for cannabis legalization is reflected in the uplifting buzz of its sativa high. Ruderalis genetics make growing this strain a lot easier. The smell is also not that strong compared to other strains. It will produce a more sweet, fruity scent verging on caramel, but it’s subtle. This strain also owes heritage to the dazzling sativa White Widow, ensuring a shimmering body high once ingested.

ROYAL CREAMATIC

Royal Creamatic can be considered an all-around great strain for indoor growers, given its compact nature and discreet odor.

Upon smoking, however, she will delight the senses. Royal Creamatic is an autoflowering cultivar that will race from seed to harvest in 8 weeks. Perhaps even more impressive is her ability to churn out a respectable 450g/m² when treated with the love and respect she deserves.
