Petroleum like odor in one strain

[Gee]

Good morning,

I’m an outdoor grower in my last few weeks of flower and wanted to hear what you guy have experienced in smells.

My 4 strains each have one predominant smell

1-Skunky
2-piney
3-citrusy
4th is a petroleum like smell

I’ve experienced the first three. Petrol like smell? is that’ common? Is that why some plants have Diesel in the name???

Yes! It's my favorite weed smell. Nothing like those gas nugs.

there is a very popular line called Diesel.... there are hundreds of varieties of "diesel" out there these days, and it sounds like you have one. It is usually a very strong weed... I am smoking a variety of it right now called motobreath... it is 29% THC.

Yep lots of fuel/chemical tastes out there. I have smells that range from old nasty diesel fuel Ie; Sour Diesel to nice fresh unleaded smelling ones. I am beginning to think if there is a smell out there. Sooner or later a pot plant will show up smelling like it.

the original prize winning Paradise Seeds Sensi Star had a much sought after 'Kerosene' pheno, have GDP x C99 seeds where some have a Kerosene odor as well when grown out...definitely not ditchweed!
