SOUR DIESEL
Sour Diesel, also known as “Sour D” and “Sour Deez,” is a popular sativa marijuana strain made by crossing Chemdawg and Super Skunk.
We don’t even know who bred it originally most people call him/her “A.J.” or “Asshole Joe.”
It not only comes packed with 26% THC on the high end, but also retains 2% CBD and 4% CBN during extraction, which is pretty unheard of.
These added chemical compounds don’t alter the base effects of Sour Diesel, but they provide varied intensity that you can’t really calculate (or control).
Sour Diesel’s lineage contains a little mystery.
Researchers suspect that it was created accidentally from strains in the Chemdawg and OG Kush line.
Particularly, Chemdawg 91 is a likely parent, along with possible candidates like DNL and Massachusetts Super Skunk.
Either way, the plant grows lanky, throwing up a ton of foxtails around its dense,
light green nugs, and releasing pungent odors into your indoor garden, like little skunk-citrus flower bombs.
The Sour Diesel strain works even better as a morning motivation than that first cup of coffee,
so it’s no wonder why many are making the switch from hard-core caffeine to this delectable Mary Jane.
