I was debating between posting this here or the 'what are you smoking' forum. This felt better..Move if need be..
I know, strange topic. Sounds ok in my head.
Anyways, I always hear people say things like 'Kush' is my favorite. Or 'OGs' are my fav. Is this to say that all kushes' have a distinct taste/smell? And all OGs have a distinct taste/smell? This question(s) would also pertain to hazes and diesels. Now, with diesel I think the name is to imply the strains taste/smell of diesel. Right? Right! I always assumed that.. So that ones easy assuming that's true.
Moving on..
I watched something on YT explaining the 4 types of cannabis terp profiles in the market.(may have been KJ) and I tend to follow the thought
-Fuel
-Floral
-Fruity
-Earthy
Fuel, gas, diesel, tar, baby shit, dog shit, egg farts. etc. These are the strains I thrive to grow and smoke. Strains that when someone walks in the room its like a bull of crap being smoked. I know this sounds gross and why would someone want something they're describing as smelling like shit or gas. But I think most growers and/or smokers know what I'm driving at.
**The second 'terp profile' I love is floral. And what I'm going to say is contradicting because I HATE when a chic wears so much perfume that I get an instant headache. I shouldn't be able to smell you unless I am hugging you. If you have swamp crotch take a shower and use some powder. Reminds me of old Grandmas..
With that said; I love weed that when I smoke it I get a bitter chemical taste like I got flowery perfume or some chics body spray in my mouth. Or the taste of a rose peddle(No idea how I can imagine that) Guess this would fall under the floral category.
I ask because I am constantly popping seeds trying to find these flavors. I have succeed over many years of growing. But mostly it just turns out to be more work then the payout. Sexing plants, picking the strongest, taking clones to hold over till you kow if its worth keeping. etc. I don't have the time, room or honestly, the care to any longer. So I am going to buy some clones. Albeit way out of my price range, it's something I need to do to get back on track. I killed the last batch I got from Calif.
When I left Colorado I wasn't able to take anything I had. So all my keeper strains were tossed.. Now, I do live in a mmj state and can get clones locally. However there is nothing that really gets me hard. Just kinda boring stuff. IMO. I work there so I have seen them all 1st hand. I know I can't go based on the strain name only.
I wanna get on the MAC1, dosido, gelato train. These new(relative) super frost-monster, resin railed on the lowers type strains you see on IG being concokted in N. America.
When I started growing(in CO.) I kinda pigeon-holed myself into only smoking the strains I grew from seed. Not leaving me the $ to try top shelf strains. I don't know that I've ever smoked real cookies, or glue or blue dream even. The strain they love to hate...
God damn I can ramble on. So anyways..what should I look for when buying clones that I want to meet the tastes i have described?
Like kush should *always taste like...?
Haze should always taste like...?
OGs should...
Any and all info is appreciated..

*And I know that there are a million crosses and phenos of kush, og, haze, etc. And there is no way to nail down terp profiles based on a name. I'm just talking loosely about what is normally know about 'groups' of genetics.Something else I can do without: after-shave and cologne, and this disgusting shit that men put on their bodies. Just what I need in the elevator, some guy standing next to me smells like a fucking pine tree. I say go home and wash you smelly prick. You smell like the urinal in a Portuguese cat-house. God-damn guys are stupid. Guys are really fucking dumb. They think they’re going to get laid with this stuff you know. Oh yeah, they put it on at home thinking: oh boy, oh boy, I’ll get laid tonight. I’ll get laid tonight. You don’t get laid with green shit that comes out of a bottle okay? The only smell that’s going to help you get laid might be your own natural scent. You have pheromones. It’s a secondary sex characteristic. people in America, they’re all nervous about sex. They want to cover it up and disguise it. Guys in Europe, they know how to live. Guy gets in an elevator over there, he smells like a pile of dog shit, those people are sophisticated!
