You can just make up your own names and people will buy it. My friend told some kids his weed was called "Obama kush". they were down with it.

Where do you think those people 2 steps down get it from? Unless they are total assholes and change the name or just don't care the only difference should be the price.
My point is strains are most definitely not BS unless from a dispensary... Maybe buy some seeds and grow some yourself if you don't know anyone.

Leafly Obama Kush
Quote:
This unique indica appropriately channels the President’s famous message of ‘Change’ as it invigorates and inspires. Daughter of indica Afghani and mostly sativa hybrid OG Kush, Obama Kush sets itself apart from other indicas through its cerebral stimulation and euphoric rush.

When I was in highschool this one kid told about a strain he was buying for stupidly taxed prices called something along the lines of "super berry yumyum kush" or something clearly made up He also had a bong made out of a 2 liter he showed me during science class one time I sold him a glass pipe soon after becouse seriously, fucking plastic man?...

Not minding that time's passing by I've got all and more, My smile, just as before. Is all that I carry with me I talk to myself, I need nobody else. I'm lost and I'm mine, yes I'm free

orange bud and og kush for orange kush sounds very legit... is actually what we are discussing .. orange from orange bud and kush from og kush, the lineage is pretty clear , durban poison is landrace, many as panama red or afghan kush are considered landraces... who knows... worth testing ...

I mean...if it looks good and it smells good then yeah give me a name or not, I'll be down with it too. I'm sure the name is what sold them...not the fact that they needed weed.

They probably did what I do when my dealer gives me a throwed off name and just went with it and talked about how you probably have no idea what you're talking about when they turned their back to go smoke.

This kind of names are just pure marketing thing, on a regional base... the lineage should be Skunk x Unknown Strain x OG Kush x Afghani ... keeping this unknown strain is what I come across often... as said before, genealogy study progression in this area will bring clarity and a little more transparency to what we have

Can you explain that better You're saying there's 4 primary strains? How do you back that up?

ModestMouse said: Strains are mostly bullshit Unless you're buying from a dispensary, you can't be sure what you have is what they say.....
Or unless you're familiar with the characteristics of various strains and their genetics....familiar with the structure/aesthetics of the flower, aroma/taste, and the sort of buzz it induces. Just by using one's nose and eyes, one can get a general idea what the strain is...or notice if the person/dispensary trying to sale the strain is bullshittin' ya by selling it as something else. Though some strains are similar enough to one another that it's hard to distinguish them.
After smoking a quite a variety of strains over the years I think I've become pretty alright at identifying the strain, or the general genetic back ground, of what I'm smoking.
Lots of strains have unique or distinct characteristics that are somewhat easy to ID after you've smoked em' a handful of times....quite a few times I've identified what people are smoking in their joint as Jack Herer, because even the smoke alone from that strain has a distinct aroma that stands out.
But yea...I've never liked the name "Green Crack", and quite a few dispensaries won't sell this strain under that name but rather it's original name (Green Cush IIRC) or something else. IIRC it was Snoop Dog that popularized the labeling of this strain as "Green Crack" .
LSD...I've seen this as an abbreviation for "Lemon Sour Diesel", as well as a few other strain names .

What about Durban Poison which isn't crossed with anything and is one of the few strains that's a 100% Sativa?

what i meant is this "unknown strain" factor in the lineage of many well known and legendary strains... I think in near future we will be able to trace those claimed top strains a little further back in time due to maybe similar genetic traits in other strains... and be able to find the probable father and mother to this "unknown strain" ... or at least an outline of those ...
