OG Sour
Also known as: Sour OG
OG Sour Strain Overview
OG Sour is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that combines two legendary lineages: Sour Diesel and OG Kush. This strain emerged in the early 2000s as breeders sought to blend the cerebral, energizing effects of Sour Diesel with the deeply relaxing, full-body sensations of OG Kush. The result is a versatile hybrid that has gained popularity in both medical and recreational cannabis communities for its well-rounded effects and distinctive flavor profile.
Visually, OG Sour plants typically display dense, resinous buds with a classic cannabis structure. The flowers often exhibit a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues, particularly in cooler growing conditions. The buds are typically coated in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature bright orange pistils that contrast against the green foliage. The strain's aroma is immediately noticeable, combining the fuel-like pungency of its OG Kush parent with the sharp citrus notes inherited from Sour Diesel.
OG Sour is known for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to physical relaxation. The strain has become particularly popular among users seeking relief from various conditions while maintaining functionality. Its relatively high THC content makes it potent, so novice consumers are advised to start with small doses. The strain's popularity has led to numerous phenotypes and variations, though the classic expression maintains the distinctive characteristics of both parent strains.

OG Sour Strain Growing Information
OG Sour is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready around mid-October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though indoor cultivation allows better control over the flowering cycle. Plants tend to reach medium height (3-5 feet indoors, 5-7 feet outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize yields. OG Sour requires good airflow to prevent mold in its dense buds and responds well to organic nutrients. The strain is somewhat resistant to common pests but can be susceptible to powdery mildew in humid conditions.
