Sour Crinkle
Also known as: Illuminauto №21 Sour Crinkle
Sour Crinkle Strain Overview
Sour Crinkle is an autoflowering cannabis strain developed by Mephisto Genetics as an F4 hybrid created from crossing Grape Crinkle and Sour Crack. Originally released as Illuminauto №21, this strain represents a sophisticated combination of genetics that brings together the best traits of both parent strains. The strain is predominantly indica with an 80% indica to 20% sativa genetic ratio, though some sources indicate a 40% indica to 60% sativa ratio. Sour Crinkle is known for its fast flowering time of 9-10 weeks (approximately 67 days from seed to harvest) and its exceptional trichome production, making it particularly valuable for extraction purposes. The strain exhibits compact growth characteristics typical of its indica heritage, reaching heights of 50-70cm and producing yields of 50-100 grams per plant. Mephisto Genetics describes this strain as a "fantastic all-rounder" and "definitely a Mephisto in-house favourite."

Sour Crinkle Strain Growing Information
Sour Crinkle is considered relatively straightforward to grow once established in a suitable environment. Plants are compact, reaching 50-70cm in height, making them ideal for indoor cultivation and small spaces. The strain has a fast flowering time of 60-70 days from germination and produces 50-100 grams of dried buds per plant. Best results are achieved using Sea of Green (SoG) technique with plants restricted to the main central cola. The strain benefits from leaf tucking or light defoliation to maximize yields. It produces highly resinous buds with tight internodal spacing, making it excellent for extractions. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing is preferred for optimal control.
