Genetics & Origin of Sour Diesel
Sour Diesel is listed in the shop as a classic with a strong effect; this version comes from DNA Genetics and is assigned to the Reserva Privada category in the shop. The breeder gives no information on the exact cross in the strain description. It gives the ratio as 60% Indica and 40% Sativa and speaks of a balanced mix of both sides. DNA Genetics does not state a THC value; the manufacturer rates the potency as strong. As an award, the manufacturer names the 2nd place in the Hash category at the HT Cannabis Cup 2010. The strain is high-yielding and stretches noticeably during flowering, and its bright green, frosty flowers take on a slight pink tint as they ripen. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod. For comparison: you will also find a Sour Diesel by Barney's Farm and the autoflowering Auto Sour Diesel in our range.
Who Is Sour Diesel For?
Sour Diesel is a high-yielding strain for growers who give it the full flowering time. It suits:
- Beginners looking for a strain that is not particularly sensitive when it comes to nutrients
- Experienced growers who want to increase the yield by pinching and bending the tops
- Growers who work with cuttings and would like to limit the final height
- Lovers of sour diesel aromas with a long aftertaste
- Consumers looking for a stimulating, creative effect during the day
If you want to harvest quickly or are looking for a calming strain for the evening, it is less of a fit. You can find other uncomplicated strains under cannabis seeds for beginners.
Growing Sour Diesel: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
DNA Genetics states a full 10 weeks of flowering for Sour Diesel – according to the breeder, that is how much time the strain needs to unfold its potential. The manufacturer states a yield of 450 to 550 g/m². The plants stretch above all in the first three weeks of flowering; the breeder recommends pinching and bending the tops to control the stretch and increase the yield. Where space is tight, DNA Genetics advises sending rooted cuttings straight into flowering: this way a final height of 1 to 1.3 metres is achievable. According to the manufacturer, the strain is not particularly sensitive to nutrients, which also suits beginners. You will find tips for getting started in the Growpedia for beginners.
Outdoor Growing
For open ground, DNA Genetics gives no data of its own in the strain description. In the shop the strain is rated for a harvest in October and as very tall-growing; the manufacturer does not give a yield per plant. The long flowering time calls for a sunny, sheltered spot with plenty of space, and in cooler locations a greenhouse is the safer choice. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of Sour Diesel
DNA Genetics describes the flavour of Sour Diesel as intensely sour and earthy with a long-lasting aftertaste – according to the breeder, it stays on the tongue long after exhaling. The scent is fresh and citrusy with a distinct diesel note. The manufacturer does not give a lab terpene profile. It gives the effect as euphoric, stimulating and cerebral and recommends the strain for the daytime, to encourage creativity or as a companion for activities. DNA Genetics rates the potency as strong, but the strain description does not state a THC value – so we do not add a figure. How intense the effect is depends on dose and individual tolerance; with a strain described as strong, it is worth starting low.
