Hopefully I understand what you're asking.. sure, hay smell can come from genetics. Mostly I would say it comes from improper dry/cure process. The hay taste/smell is the chlorophyll that hasn't yet broken down.
This is my first useful run, so the hay I'm referring to came from elsewhere. This time I want to improve my over all taste and smell. So I will be patient and be maticculous about the process.. Thanks

This.
Most likely the hay odor you're getting is due to a product that has been dried too quickly or not in optimal conditions. With that being said though, I have run across one strain which smelled like hay intentionally. There were 3 phenos, the keeper described by the breeder smelled like hay. The downside was it also smelled like pig shit (I couldnt smoke it it was too rancid but a few people I know loved the hell out of it and asked why I stopped running it) and was named "Pig Pen".
