Question about TH Seed's "Ultra Sour"

I've harvested a nice ultra sour lady, but i'm quite confused by the reviews and description of it.

The herb I have harvested can only be described as straight up "limonene", like pungent limonene. The shit smells and tastes like you are smoking margarita mix. Anybody familiar with terpenes will know the smell i'm describing, it is unmistakable.

I haven't found this in any of the research i've done on the strain. Most people say it has "earthy, sour flavor", but don't mention the dominant terpene profile. What is more perplexing is...MK Ultra has a berry/kushy flavor and sour diesel has a pungent fuel-like flavor.

Does anybody know if the East cost sour d in particular is known to have high amounts of limonene, and therefore be very lemony? I'm just trying to solve this equation of how a hybrid can turn out straight lemon/margarita flavored and nobody indicate the possibility of that. I wouldn't imagine even an East Coast sour d being this high in limonene, this bud smells like it should be named lemon - something.

Thank you guys for any knowledgeable help in explaining the terpene profile of this herb. Like I said, I'm quite perplexed by it.

yes, i've heard of an ecsd that has that lemony smell and taste to it for sure.. naturally, the fuel flavored one is more popular for w/e reason, but there's a lemon one for sure, which i'd think would come more from the chem parent..

i've grown mk ultra, and mine was way more on the kushy side of things, that hashy, piney taste, and no lemon to it at all.

my recent harvest has a sweet/sour bread smell that i do not like. the smoke is not impressive at all. is this ultra sour?? having a hard time finishing any cure on it as i hate opening up the jar to smell it. the description given by racerboy71 of the two parent strains do not equate at all to what i've ended up with. TSSC bean. mine also didn't look like other pictures i've seen of it, and i am a newbie, so taking those two points into consideration and in no way blaming the breeder, i'm just not liking this at all. cannot see popping the other one bean of this i have any time soon.
could someone explain to me briefly what taste kush, diesel, chem, sour/sweet, and the other basic descriptions actually taste like? maybe i'm totally confused on those and have picked the wrong beans? i do not like a piney, menthol taste/smoke and really like this unknown-sour kush i'm smoking now. it has almost a sweet cigar smell to the flowers and a really nice earthy flavor with a barely noticeable sweet taste to it too, the cure has made it fantastic after almost two months of curing. even the one-month cure stuff is sweet. will be sorry to see it go.
