Loud Sour
Also known as: Loud Sour Diesel, LSD
Loud Sour Strain Overview
Loud Sour is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity in recent years, though its exact origins remain somewhat obscure within the cannabis breeding community. The strain appears to be a cross between classic Sour Diesel genetics and another potent, aromatic cultivar, resulting in a plant that combines the cerebral effects of sativas with the physical relaxation of indicas. Breeders likely developed Loud Sour to amplify the pungent, fuel-like aroma characteristic of Sour Diesel while increasing overall potency and yield.
The strain's name derives from its two most prominent characteristics: its exceptionally strong, 'loud' aroma that can permeate storage containers and rooms, and its distinct sour, diesel-like flavor profile. Visually, Loud Sour typically produces dense, resinous buds with a forest green coloration often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are usually coated in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that hints at their high cannabinoid content. The strain's buds tend to be medium to large in size with a slightly elongated structure, reflecting its sativa-leaning heritage.
While not as historically documented as some classic strains, Loud Sour has established itself in certain cannabis markets as a reliable, potent hybrid with distinctive sensory characteristics. The strain's effects are typically described as balanced, offering both mental stimulation and physical relaxation without overwhelming sedation. Its strong aroma profile makes it particularly notable among connoisseurs who appreciate pungent, fuel-forward cannabis varieties, though this characteristic also requires careful storage to maintain discretion.

Loud Sour Strain Growing Information
Loud Sour is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in warm, Mediterranean-like climates with consistent sunlight.
Plants tend to exhibit hybrid growth patterns, reaching medium heights of 4-6 feet indoors and potentially taller outdoors if given space. Loud Sour requires good air circulation and careful humidity control, especially during flowering, as its dense buds are susceptible to mold in overly humid conditions. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize light exposure and yield. Nutrient requirements are moderate, though growers should monitor for signs of nutrient burn as the plants can be somewhat sensitive to overfeeding. The strong aroma during flowering necessitates effective odor control measures for discreet cultivation.
