Sour Diesel Auto

For a high that can be compared to having a dozen espresso shots all at once, Sour Diesel is arguably one of the top hard-hitting contenders. The dank strain takes it far with fast-acting effects to induce an unabashed euphoria with a dreamy quality.

Not much is known about its lineage. However, the consensus is that it is a descendant of Chemdawg 91, possibly crossed with Northern Lights. It is also entirely possible that a third strain, Skunk #1, is involved. Regardless, Sour Diesel has established itself as one of the most recognizable strains in the world since its appearance in the 90s.

Great for daytime consumption, it confers feelings of gleefulness and provides an upshot of energy. Sufferers of mood disorders or chronic stress may look to this strain for relief; with a remarkable content, it is guaranteed to brighten up the day.

It does, however, fall short on its performance in the garden. Sour Diesel tests patience due to its slow growth rate that is typical of Sativa plants. By crossing it with a Ruderalis, though, an auto variety came to be, and it blows by from seed to harvest at lightning speed.

United Strains of America carries a selection of elite strains. One is the Auto Sour Diesel. It takes only just under two months to harvest from the time of germination. In spite of the rapid rate of growth, it does not deviate too much from the traits that made it a legend. Care for it all throughout and once chopped down, dried, and cured, expect the buds to exude the same distinct flavors. More importantly, it would be packed with resins that takes one on a soaring high.

Growing Sour Diesel Autoflower

Fusing in the genes of a Ruderalis to Sour Diesel has one purpose - to produce auto-flowering seeds. However, it also added other traits that home and commercial growers could appreciate. One is the enhanced resistance to molds, mildews, pests, and diseases. A selective and extensive breeding process also assures that the harvest would be abundant. Instead of waiting for ages, it takes only 8 to 10 weeks to begin harvesting after starting the seeds.

It is not an overly tall plant. On average, its height ranges from 75-100 cm. Thus, it does not require much vertical space. To boost the yield, use about 6 to 7 liters of soil and employ a Sea of Green setup. Also, use an 18-hour light cycle. Come harvest-time; expect to reap about 350 to 400 grams of buds per square meter.

Cultivating Sour Diesel Auto outdoors is equally rewarding. In the northern hemisphere, it can be started from late April to mid-October. Each plant could produce up to 170 grams.

Fragrance and Flavor

Sour Diesel permeates an abundance of petrol mixed with a subtle note pinecone thus making for an interestingly wakeful blend. Its flavors carry the fragrance with a pronounced lemon tang to give it a refreshing twist.

Effects

Sour Diesel strikes quickly with one intent - to energize. It causes a tingling sensation that spreads from the face to the extremities and all the while, uplifting the mood. Even as the senses sharpen, an optimistic shift of mindset becomes apparent.

The boost in vigor can take flight on its own accord. A sense of enthusiasm for work builds up, which aptly prompts better productivity. Creativity can be re-ignited, and the artistically inclined may see personal projects come to fruition. In higher doses, some may use it to get lost in introspection.

The upbeat nature also makes this an introvert’s confidence booster. As the head swirl with free-flowing ideas, tense spirits loosen. At the same time, it sparks interesting conversations.

Sour Diesel retains enough of the Indica heritage to follow up the cerebral stimulation with a gentle body buzz. Not one to cause a couch-lock, it merely mellows an otherwise mind-bending experience.

It boasts of a clear, long-lasting high that keeps the mind soaring while the body stays mellow. Growing it though is a test of patience as it does take a long time.
