That's really interesting. Do you know of any sources that list these sorts of properties for strains (and that are reliable/empirical)? I presume the tags on sites like Leafly that mark a strain 'calming' or 'good for depression' are anecdotal and not based in chemistry?

Some empirical effects reasearch from the NIH: https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/cam/hp/cannabi...

I think you need to go deeper because each batch can give a different profile so the strains only provide a guideline.

What you could do is map the smell to the terpene profile.
