Sage N Sour
Also known as: Sage and Sour, Sage 'N Sour, S and S
Overview
Sage N Sour is a sativa-dominant hybrid (75% sativa/25% indica) cannabis strain created by TH Seeds through crossing Sour Diesel with their proprietary S.A.G.E. (Sativa-Afghani Genetic Equilibrium) hybrid. This acclaimed strain won 3rd place at the 2004 High Times Cannabis Cup in the Sativa category. The strain combines the sharp, pungent characteristics of Sour Diesel with the herbal qualities of S.A.G.E., resulting in a well-balanced cultivar that has maintained popularity among both recreational and medical cannabis users. Sage N Sour produces dense, fluffy buds with dark olive-green coloration, rich purple undertones, and thin amber hairs, all covered in a fine layer of almost translucent trichomes. The strain is particularly noted for its distinctive aroma profile that balances diesel fuel notes with unmistakable sage and herbal scents, creating the signature 'sour' and 'sage' combination that gives the strain its name. The cultivar has been successfully adapted for various growing conditions and has spawned numerous phenotypes and regional variations.

Growing Information
Sage N Sour is considered an intermediate difficulty strain suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of 9-11 weeks (63-77 days) and performs well both indoors and outdoors. Indoor yields can reach 350+ grams per square meter, while outdoor cultivation can produce up to 1.5 pounds per plant under optimal conditions. The plant grows 120-140cm tall indoors and prefers warm climates when grown outdoors. TH Seeds recommends deep water culture (DWC) setups for indoor cultivation, though hydroponic systems also work well with HPS lighting. The strain is known for its hardiness and generous yields, making it popular among commercial growers. Plants exhibit sativa-dominant growth patterns with stretching during flowering and require adequate space and support.
