I bought a cultivar with over 5mg/g of linalool called Lunar Rainbow and it's a pretty thick body stone, so I cut it 50/50 with a limonene forward cultivar called Kush Cake. It sort of works. Hehe.

The rushy, anxiety driving aspects of the Cake are muted A LOT. But the blend just completely clobbers me. This is my second attempt at a blend, and so far I can't say that I've discovered nirvana. I'm better off just carefully titrating.
The first few times I blended strains was probably 5-6 years ago. Weed was more expensive in Oklahoma then and I found myself with a couple of questionable strains. I bought enough good weed to mix with it and pass it off (on myself). That doesn't always work. Some weed is irredeemable IMO.
On the other hand, mixing results can be better than excellent if you blend only excellent strains. Add long term continuity on top of enjoyment if, for example, you blend six excellent ounces (a little each week), strains that compliment each other, then you can vape the exact same mixture for six months (assuming one ounce per month). It never works out that neatly but the idea is the same.
I was curious and started documenting strains several years ago, mainly the predominant terpenes in each strain. Looking back, I can see that almost every strain I liked had significant amount of beta-caryophllene. Terpinolene seems to appear in some good strains having less beta-caryophllene, some strains had both. The really interesting thing was that when I look at strains I didn't like, those two terps are absent, only small amounts if any. This also explained a mystery that has been bugging me. Possibly the most enjoyable weed I ever smoked supposedly was an indica called Cheese. Couldn't figure it out, but now I see that the original version of Cheese, from the UK, has beta-caryophyllene as the main ingredient with terpinolene coming in second place. Not yet certain, just a theory.
