Plug colours may give us better idea. ? But does sound like weak mixture or wrong/defective plug.

When warm and not starting, try removing the rubber to the airfilter from the carb mouth... and leave carb open...
Does is start then no-probs... best bet is that you have spit-back in the rubber...
Either drill a small hole 2-3mm in the bottom of the rubber to let the fuel escape, or switch fuel off in advance of switching engine off so that the engine sucks in that spit back.

Check that your choke is working correctly, and the brass plunger is not sticking in the on position. I had a similar problem with warm starting caused by this.
