When do plants usually start stinking?

[SmokinMom]

Well, I shouldn't say stink. It's not an unpleasant odor to me.

I noticed the odor when mine hit about 3 1/2 weeks. Is this common? Am I on schedule?

Gonna go to the garage and take a nice long sniff now. I bet it's the skunk cross, more then the misty.

I've never really had smelly plants. They smell more during veg than in flower imo though. I'd always heard AK48 was smelly but mine doesn't smell at all unless I disturb it.

smell is dependant on strain. i noticed increased odor around 4 weeks of flowering to the finish.

Current plants smelled seriously stanky McCrankin' around 4 weeks and stayed that way until pre-flowering, at which point there was nearly no odor at all. 5 weeks into flowering, they are starting to produce a light skunky-fruity odor but nothing like that mid-veg stage.
