I'm smoking an OG kush that tastes exactly like lemon pledge right now.
It's a predominant terpene profile in OGs.
Skywalker, SFV, Josh D, BTY, and others all express lemon pledge terps to an extent.
It's not lost.

I'm smoking a personal s1 of the Josh D at the moment. Was ran as live resin.

Whoa ya beauty!! 
I hoped it was kush but it was so long ago.
Last week a dude was looking for folk to grow kush so I asked If kush was that pledgey lemon scent but the description didn't sound like what I was talking about, then another chap said kush is more hashy/earthy so I thought my memory was just crap
Many thanks @JetLife175 in future I'm going to grow some of those you listed, I've got Kotten kush x Phantom cookies here I'm going to star, oh jeez I've blue kush aswell?
Just a thought... they're regular seeds I should take the opportunity to cross the two?

Always wanted to run that.
You aren't going to get any classic OG terpene profiles from crosses.Whoa ya beauty!!

Every single time once I outcross it, something is lost. It's not the full package.
Hunting through selfed seeds of proven OG clones is the best bet to find what you want.
Try some of the earlier documented clones a la the ones I mentioned in my previous post and eventually you will find what you are looking for.
If you are in California believe it or not a big company named Raw Garden has a really good example of OG kush in concentrate form. It's pretty much what one would expect from a proper classic OG kush.

Is it? Yall just hear the word lemon and start spitting word vomit out?
I thought SFV was sour lemon floor cleaner, now we're claiming it's lemon pledge like master kush?
Does anything mean anything to you people? Just word salad?
Lemon floor cleaner/lemon pledge.
Can be different things to different peoples palettes.
I've been running OGs since 2006. Coming up on 18 years. I'd like to think I know the genepool well.
Master kush also has zero lemon in it. It's more akin to a bubba than a OG. Looks like you're the one with backwards information.
lol, Lemon is Lemon no matter how you interpret it. Many will have a different take on what type of lemon they perceive.

I've since started some lvtk I'm looking forward to trying it, fingers crossed for some pledgey terps.

It sucks everything is so shallow today, the work, the breeding..
Even the collabs are sketchy, 2 "breeders" sharing unworked clones for a supreme F1, yeah right...
The gene pool in 2024 is akin to the lottery only the lottery is more cheap and have 0 risk and no time/work involved so maybe it's actually better..
The gene pool is so fucked, I popped 3 seeds in 2005 and got 3 amazing elite keepers nothing less, from dutch seeds I bought
Today I ran over 300+ seeds and found... Maybe 1 that's not even solid keeper, just had decent potency
That's all you need to know about the situation of the beans we hold
My friend is looking at my bought seed stash and says it's all trash without even blinking
And he's right.

Even Khalifa Genetics, which to me is one of those companies that actually do work and actual breeding, can't describe what kinda effects your getting from their plants
Words like "the smell transfers to all the phenos" and "uniform traits, very sticky resin"
Hmm am I going to glue wood boards or smoke this shit ?
And for smells, this is not incense bro hahaha who cares about the smells now ?
That's like the 4th or 5th thin I care about when growing
I care about Effects ! Taste later, Smell ? Last.
Why can't they write Knockout high, or very strong ? Or very weak also good just write something !
Everything I didn't or not need to know they told me, now what about telling what am I actually paying for ?
Shady shady business
Pop as much seeds, it's a gamble no matter who you have them from
Unless it's @JetLife175 that dude hold a lot of special stuff as I've seen over the years and drooled

Flavour is #1 to me that's my primary reason for growing the effects are very much secondary its unimportant if it doesn't taste great lol

When shit hits the fan everyone is going to be really excited some things are still alive and kicking. Me and my circle pride ourselves on being keepers of things that most have thrown away for the next new hype. Always cracks me up when people come back around looking for what they lost. There's a certain look they give that gives off "I should have never ran the new stuff" lol

Tell me about it
I had those cuts back in the day aswell, I never threw them though just a lot of busts and dirty cops led to me having to start over
@CocoNut 420
I get your point.. it's always better to have a smoke that's nice on the mouth even if the high is weak
But for me effects and potency is everything
Flavor is important and comes 2nd in my selections.
I decided to focus on my next seed runs, plant as many from one strain as I can, seeing the full potential instead of judging a 6 pack as the odds of you hitting anything worth in those random chucks of unworked lines is so rare.

If you don't mind me asking,
What are your favorite cuts/lines that you used to have?
