About this release
Sour Diesel is a mostly sativa strain that emerged in the New York underground cannabis scene in the early 1990s. Its exact genetic origin remains debated, but it is widely understood to be a descendant of Chemdawg and possibly Super Skunk or Northern Lights. It became one of the most iconic American strains and has remained in high demand across legal markets. This feminized version is available through Seed Supreme. Genetics & Background
Sour Diesel (also called Sour D) is believed to have originated in the early 1990s on the US East Coast. The fuel-forward aroma and energetic effects distinguished it from other strains of the era, and it rapidly became a cultural touchstone in cannabis communities. Effects

Energetic — strong mental activation and physical drive
Creative — associated with creative thinking and focus
Uplifted — mood elevation that is typically functional
THC typically ranges from 19–25%. The onset is rapid and the high long-lasting. Flavor & Aroma
