brand new scuba mask out of the package

dude, i think you did it! i've been trying to peg what myrcene reminds me of, and i've been tossing around various solvents and plastic smells in my mind, i'm pretty sure it's that clear, soft diving mask plastic!

i'll have to dig out my old bottle of myrcene if i can find it, anyway thanks wolverine

I really wish I had ordered one of Crybaby's olfactory kits a couple years back...

You mean where all the bud smells like a shoe store? And bud tenders are trained by anti MMJ industry plants to call it "candy gas" when it literally smells like plastic? Where Sativa and indica both make you sleepy and neither get you high?

Overfed and uncurable garbage where you can't separate strains by smell or even looks cuz it's all the same shit? LA doesn't even have strains they have brands of bottles, that's what differentiates LA weed, which bottled products the bud smells and feels like.

Socal growers regularly claim their favorite terp is "vinyl seats", "pool floaty" and "new Jordans". You don't think that's part of the problem? "Chem" in the rest of the world means sulfur, carboxylic and alcohol solvent smells. In LA it means plastic toxins. I tend to ignore everything people from LA say, and most definitely anyone who considers LA a mecca of anything but deviance and self obsession.

Sour Diesel on the west coast falls into 3 types of fucked up in my experience. It's either going to smell like peanut shells, or it's going to smell like a flooring store. Or it's going to smell like fake Kushy spray.

It will never smell like Sour Diesel. Pretty sure if it reminds you of peanut oil and acorns, or acrylates and vinyls, when fed wrong, you can differentiate the genes in a meaningful way. Yup..

Lots of weed smells sour when grown right. In fact almost all of it does. Yet people are still confused, claiming sour diesel doesn't smell sour.? Custies confused about "tart" smells, thinking there's something wrong with the bud? Half the fucking strains on the market 10 years ago had sour in the name. "Our diesel" wtf..

Now we got sour milk as a contender? Plenty of butyrate smells in weed but none of them smell like spoiled milk. Dude must be spraying biofungicides. Or his nose sucks. Babyshit comes in a plain variety?Who knows. People who didn't grow up around quality weed seem really confused by weed..


But yeah LA sucks. Growers in LA suck. If you are from LA or even mention LA then you suck. Lots of people in LA swear SFV smells like peanut shells, oak leaf compost etc, because they've only smoked fucked up Cali weed their entire life. When I grew SFV, it smelled like sour lemons. Different cut? Please..

And the Cali growers try patenting their weed based on fruit peel terpenes..? The same terpenes found in a piece of ham or a shower curtain? Anyone eat ham and proclaim the excellence of linalool? When's the last time you smelled limonene in a shower curtain? Because it's in there. Why the fuck is Cali testing for nonsense volatiles that you can't even smell, and have nothing to do with weed? Cali doesn't even know what weed actually smells like, because Cali doesn't grow weed that smells like it should.

Fuck California.

California has always been part of the problem. Cali weed wasn't good in the 90s, and LA as far as I know never produced good weed in the 70s or 80s either. That's how outdated peoples brains are. "Cali weed" has been your marketing since the heroin (famous Cali breeders) meth (famous Cali breeders) Xanax (famous Cali breeders) dealers ran the hippies off, decades ago.

Imagine having to suppliment your tentacled weed business with counterfeit Xanax. That you got busted for in your 40s, doing some junior high western union shit. And 60 people around you went to jail, and you didn't... CALI WEED

Imagine getting busted running a mega distillate lab out of a house in Arizona, and all your partners did time, and 2 years later you run one of the biggest legal hype brands, who's weed all smells the same: CALI WEED.

Imagine replacing "meth" with "purp" in all your drug dealer stories, that only losers interested in a parasocial onlyfans relationship cares about? CALI WEED.

Nor cal has not been a weed mecca in 50 years and LA never was. All LA has done for the weed scene is lower peoples standards, normalize bad bud. Now every idiot my children's age thinks they have dank weed, when it's some overfed renamed shit from California, smelling like magic markers tooth paste and bowling alley shoe spray.

Ummm. I second that emotion!!!

I always thought, especially with the grapefruit cut (Somas cut of diesel) had a body odor funk to it, like spoiled curry almost. Thats why I thought it called "SOUR".. not at all in a bad way tho. Like a turnt green onion, rubbed in ur armpit, then put in a curry, covered it, and left in sun. But again, in a good way.

NYCD is not Sour Diesel.

 

[Redrum92]

NYCD is not Sour Diesel.

Do you mean it's not *the* Sour Diesel, or not even part of the same family?

 

[Wolverine97]

It's a completely different gene pool. NYCD is a seed strain made by Soma, years ago. Contains no Sour Diesel. No "Original Diesel", Chemdog or any of the others... if he is being honest about the parent plants.

Notso Sour lab test

to me the Notso sour smells alot like GMO but with a Anise clove dank smell that is distinct. Not a very prominent aroma off of the jar but very apparent when breaking it up.
The closest taste to this cut that I have had has been some of the flavors I found in CSI's op of NL5 from Seattle Greg. It's like a old dank wood taste that coats your mouth with a chemical after taste.

We prefer the ECSD citric acid fuel flavors over the dank GMO types.

 

[Wolverine97]

So, "not so" Sour Diesel is not so sour... or diesel... ?

 

[nepalnt21]

I really wish I had ordered one of Crybaby's olfactory kits a couple years back..

sounds awesome.

i gathered up a few bottles of what i suspect might be 100% lab synthed individual, high purity terpenes, on the cheap but this was years ago and tbh i'd rather replenish my set now that i think better distilling etc. techniques are more widespread, i assume... i can hopefully get individual terps but from a company i can look up and hopefully isolated from nature.

maybe i'll buy a gallon of caryophyllene alone, lol... i wonder how many thousands of dollars that would be.

seriously, though... i need to get a bottle of caryophyllene oxide because i'm dying to know what it smells like isolated. i guess since it's apparently an oxidation product that it probably smells like the end of my caryophyllene bottle... and i'm kinda skimming over some lit/ abstracts, it looks like there might be a small slew of oxidation products from caryophyllene (and other sesquiterps), which might even have small cannabinoid receptor action, and then there's pyrolysis and then the body metabolizes this shit into different shit (saw in pubchem where they studied rabbit piss after giving them caryophyllene to see the metabolites) and man... there's just so much shit going on inside cannabis.

i'm willing to bet a lot of them good incense smells we chase are sesquiterps.

Same Dutch gene pool though, right.? definitely different lines .

I used to get Sour D from southern Oregon that had a lime taste to it .
anyone know which cut that is?

this is why i suspect jj was throwing shade with the strain name "onycd" ...hilarious, and one of my favorite strains, btw: the 91 leaning smoke i've had is as medicinal as anything, and the d leaning smoke [from the tres dawg, i imagine] is very very good, and i think it would probably satisfy most diesel chasers.

I'm confused, and just woke up so not quite thinking "clearly" yet... but how is Sour Diesel from Dutch genetics?

 

[Genghis Kush.]

Chemdog x super skunk

 

[Wolverine97]

According to the guys who ran it originally, Diesel was just Chemdog renamed. I believe it's still an assumption that Sour Diesel was made by crossing the Chemdog (accidentally) to the SS... they had other things in that room as well at the time. But even so, the SS is only half of the equation, if that is in fact the pollen donor. So I don't consider them the same gene pool at all.

Soma lists NYCD as made with "Mexican and Afghani Landraces". So I think it's a pretty big stretch to say they're from the "same" Dutch gene pool, if not just false altogether. No offense, I'm not trying to argue about it...

It’s ok .
I disagree. And would be surprised if it’s not all from mix if things from Neville

The ecsd is the most lime of the sour varieties I have tasted.

Thank You
i just got a AJ sour diesel x lemon tree cross from CSI and was hoping its the lime version but from googling it appears that AJs is not the same as ecsd.

 

[SwampthangTheSifter]

NYCD is not Sour Diesel.

Yeah. My bad. I forgot how sensitive people get. No it may no be. But it is a Diesel, no? And my point was on my thoughts of what "sour" meant to me.

 

[silverhazefiend]

I’m attempting to root some notso sour and La kush

After going to numerous piffcons and sd showcases quality level varies

Sour d is not easy to grow between figuring out a proper feed so they don’t eat themselves by week 9-10 not over feeding so it burns harsh and getting a decent flush while maintaining temps cold enough not to destroy terps
