I just wanted to say, Ive noticed this since getting into indoor growing. Specifically with Sour D genetics. I think some genetics may be predisposed to absorbing differ tastes from the soil. I've had earth strains before. Taste like sugary pea gravel. This was differ.. Pure dirt. I thought it was a heat issue or something. Or a weird local microbial issue, because the inside of the jars get sweaty, when you wipe them you get a weird off putting cheesy smell that comes out of A/c units in the region Im in (never smelled this anywhere else in my life, but i smell it at every soda fountain, car a/c and window unit in Phoenix)
Another strain this happened with was Sherbet. It tasted exactly like my soil. No sweetness no spice. No terpenes. After the cure, there was absolutely zero trace of soil taste, it had converted into the most amazing "pussy flavored candy " with a bright intoxicating smell. It was the most drastic change I've ever seen from curing. Checking cured buds every week has been an must ever since, but I've still not had anything go from dirt to such crazy desert flavors like that Sherbet.
As a side note, the Sherbet even took on the color of my soil. It went from straight "dirt weed" to one of the best profiles I've smelled and tasted. Still an ugly brown, not even gold.
