Manufacturer Information
Genetics & Origin of Humboldt Sour Diesel
For Humboldt Sour Diesel, the Humboldt Seed Company crossed a Sour Diesel Bx3 with its Humboldt Headband; the breeder itself labels the strain with the abbreviation Bx4. In breeding, Bx stands for backcross, i.e. a cross back to the original line. According to the manufacturer, the result is Sativa-dominant; it does not state percentages. The plants consistently form dense, green flowers with a gassy flavour reminiscent of the classic Sour Diesel. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod, so flowering only begins after the switch to 12/12. The Humboldt Seed Company does not give THC and CBD values, but it does give a terpene profile headed by limonene and myrcene. You will also find the second parent in our range as Humboldt Headband.
Who Is Humboldt Sour Diesel For?
Humboldt Sour Diesel is a strain for friends of the diesel character. It suits:
- Fans of the classic Sour Diesel with its gassy, sour aroma
- Growers who want to combine Sativa dominance with 65 days of flowering
- Gardeners with enough headroom for plants that double in size during flowering
- Outdoor growers whose autumn stays dry into the second half of October
- Consumers looking for a euphoric high for creative hours
It is less suitable for low rooms and for regions where a wet autumn sets in early. You can find more strains from American breeders under US Genetics.
Growing Humboldt Sour Diesel: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
The Humboldt Seed Company states a flowering time of 65 days, i.e. a good nine weeks. Important for planning: according to the breeder, the strain doubles in size during flowering. So switch to 12/12 in good time and keep space free overhead; topping or a net can be used to steer the stretch sideways. The manufacturer describes the flower structure as extremely dense and the mould resistance as only moderate – good air movement and controlled humidity in the final weeks are therefore important. The breeder does not give heights in centimetres or a yield in g/m². You can read more about training and climate in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, the Humboldt Seed Company states a harvest window from 5 to 20 October. Because of the dense flowers and the only moderate mould resistance, the strain needs a sunny, airy spot and an autumn that is as dry as possible; where October turns out wet, rain protection or a greenhouse is the safer choice. The breeder does not state a yield per plant or a height. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Terpenes of Humboldt Sour Diesel
According to the breeder, Humboldt Sour Diesel has a skunky smell of orange and cinnamon, joined by the strikingly sour scent that the manufacturer specifically highlights; in the flavour, the gassy note of the classic Sour Diesel comes through. The Humboldt Seed Company gives a terpene profile in mg/g: limonene 3.8, myrcene 2.8 and caryophyllene 1.0, followed by β-pinene at 0.7, humulene and α-pinene at 0.4 each, and camphene and linalool at 0.1 each. The breeder describes the effect as energising and ethereal, with a euphoric rush that suits creative inspiration. It does not state a THC value. How intense the effect is depends on dose and personal tolerance.
