Original Auto Sour Diesel
Also known as: Auto Sour D, Auto Sour Diesel
Original Auto Sour Diesel Strain Overview
Original Auto Sour Diesel is an autoflowering cannabis strain that combines the legendary genetics of Sour Diesel with the convenience of automatic flowering traits. The strain traces its lineage to the classic Sour Diesel, a sativa-dominant hybrid renowned for its pungent aroma and energetic effects, which has been crossed with a ruderalis variety to introduce the autoflowering characteristic. This genetic modification allows the plant to transition from vegetative growth to flowering based on age rather than light cycle, making it particularly suitable for novice growers or those seeking a faster harvest.
Visually, Original Auto Sour Diesel plants typically exhibit a compact, bushy structure with dense, resinous buds that are often lime green in color, adorned with vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. The leaves may display a darker green hue, and the buds are known for their elongated, spear-like shape. The strain's most notable feature is its distinctive aroma profile, which combines sharp, fuel-like notes with hints of citrus and earth, a signature characteristic inherited from its Sour Diesel parent.
As an autoflowering variety, Original Auto Sour Diesel maintains many of the desirable traits of its photoperiod predecessor while offering reduced cultivation time and simplified growing requirements. It is generally considered a stable and reliable autoflowering strain, though some phenotypic variation may occur. The strain has gained popularity among home growers for its manageable size and resilience, though it may not achieve the same potency or yield as some photoperiod Sour Diesel phenotypes.

Original Auto Sour Diesel Strain Growing Information
Original Auto Sour Diesel is considered a beginner-friendly strain due to its autoflowering nature and resilience. The flowering time is typically 8-10 weeks from seed to harvest. Plants usually reach a height of 60-100 cm (24-40 inches) and can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though they perform well in controlled indoor environments. Expected yields are moderate, approximately 30-50 grams per plant indoors and 40-70 grams outdoors under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors and benefits from well-draining soil and adequate nutrients during the vegetative stage. Special considerations include avoiding high-stress training techniques, as autoflowers have a fixed life cycle, though low-stress training (LST) can be effective for maximizing light exposure.
