Hey guys does anyone know the terpene responsible for the burnt rubber smell? Growing 4 green crack plants and one ended up smelling like burnt rubber thanks for any input

Sometimes if your plant gets light burn it will have an off colored odor or the sweet, fruity odor decreases a lot.

I don’t think it’s that. I’ve had weed before that smelled like burnt rubber/tire like it’s very pronounced and the weed never had light burn/ my plant either

I love all the less common terpenes. Honestly I'm just tired of weed smelling like Fruit Loops or a Costco bakery. I love a good hazey smell, pinesol, gasoline, or rotten meat, etc. And as far as fruit, I like lemon and orange, but in small doses. All of the old time weed smelled incredible.

As for the fruits I like the mango smells. Had bought some weed that smelled like mango/ a hit of gasoline been trying to look for a strain that brings me back to that

This dispensary bud called "Burnt Rubber" smelled more like a brand new bicycle tire. Fucking amazing. This is what put me on the "burnt rubber terps" hunt. Still can't find out exactly what it is, some house strain i guess
I’m trying to look for more strains that smell like that too read another forum here talking about it too but Some of the topics were brought up in 2009-2013

There’s definitely some weird ones that show up.

I just harvested a layer cake/chocolate nightmare cross and half the plants have a powerful weird savory smell.


at first it made me think of a Chinese restaurant but as it’s curing now it smells like a rack of ribs or something.

Definitely not the lemon or skunk smells I’ve always seen before.

Closest thing I've grown myself so far was PuffPuffPass Cultivars Chemdawg, one plant was berry sweet/gas, the other was dirty ashtray/rubber tire funk.
