CalmingEnergizing
A fast-acting sativa with energizing, dreamy cerebral effects and a pungent diesel aroma.
Sour Diesel is a sativa cannabis strain, typically testing at 19-25% THC, descended from Chemdawg. Consumers most often describe its effects as energetic, uplifted, and happy. On the palate it tends toward diesel and citrus notes, which tracks with its dominant terpenes: caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene. Among the people who log what they are using it for, Sour Diesel comes up most often around fatigue, depression, stress, and adhd, though that reflects what consumers report rather than any tested medical effect. The most commonly reported downsides are dry mouth, dry eyes, and paranoia, and a lower dose is the usual way to avoid them.
