About California Sour Diesel

California Sour Diesel leans heavily sativa at an 80/20 split, crossing California Orange with East Coast Sour Diesel to land a flavor profile that mixes citrus and pine against a spicy, earthy diesel backbone. Humboldt Seed Company calls it a moderate grow, and it rewards the effort with size: indoor plants stretch 100 to 170 centimeters and yield 400 to 450 grams per square meter, while outdoor specimens can reach 220 to 300 centimeters and produce 500 to 700 grams each. Flowering takes eight to nine weeks, and THC tests between 20 and 22.7 percent. Some have turned to it for depression, fatigue, and stress, a fitting match for a sativa-dominant cross built around that bright, fuel-and-citrus character growers associate with classic Sour Diesel lines.
