About Sour Diesel
The origin story here is an accident. A crop of '91 Chemdog got pollinated by something nobody wrote down, somewhere on the East Coast in the early nineties, and the result was loud enough that the name ended up defining a whole flavour category. Growers still argue over the father: a DNL male, itself Northern Lights crossed with RFK Skunk and Hawaiian, or Massachusetts Super Skunk. Worth knowing this is East Coast Sour Diesel and not Soma's NYC Diesel, whatever a shelf label tells you. In the tent she behaves like the sativa she is, tall and stretchy with an open frame that helps airflow and hurts if your ceiling is low. Hold her at four to five feet with training, or let her past six outdoors, and budget ten to eleven weeks of bloom.
