Cannabis Strain
Sour Diesel
Sour Diesel is a highly popular cannabis strain that goes by multiple names, including Sour D and Sour Deez. It’s a moderately potent strain that has a strong aroma and flavor. Sour Diesel has been around since the 1990s, making it one of the oldest and most popular strains available today.
Sour Diesel is a Sativa-dominant strain, with a breakdown of about 90 percent Sativa and 10 percent Indica. Because of this, the strain offers a pleasant head high that gives you a creative boost.
The parent strains for Sour Diesel are Chemdawg and Super Skunk. Chemdawg is a hybrid strain, while Super Skunk is Indica-dominant.
Sour Diesel strain has dense green nugs with orange hairs throughout the bud.
The name “Sour Diesel” refers to the strong diesel fuel scent associated with the strain. It comes on strong and delivers an intense aroma that lingers in the air. As you smoke Sour Diesel, you’ll notice a slight lemon aftertaste.
Although the aroma of Sour Diesel is strong, the flavor is much smoother and more palatable. Many people like this strain for daily use thanks to its effervescence, which helps wake up your senses.
The three main terpenes present in Sour Diesel strain are caryophyllene, myrcene, and limonene. Caryophyllene helps give the strain such an intense aroma and flavor, as its most commonly found in black pepper. Myrcene helps balance the intensity of the strain, as it’s commonly found in lavender. Finally, limonene is what gives Sour Diesel its lemony aftertaste, as it’s often found in citrus fruits.
Since Sour Diesel is mostly Sativa, it gives you an energetic and creative boost. Also, because of the intensity of the aroma, you’ll get a substantial wake-up call, which is why so many users smoke Sour Diesel in the morning. The effects come on smoothly and last a while, although the duration depends on your tolerance level. Sour Diesel only has about 18 to 20 percent THC, so it’s mid-tier as far as how much it will get you high.
Any strain with a moderate THC balance and a strong Sativa blend will be similar to Sour Diesel. Some common options include White Buffalo, Acapulco Gold, and Devil Driver.
