Sour Diesel Autoflower
Also known as: Sour D Auto, Sour Deez Auto, Auto Sour Diesel
Sour Diesel Autoflower Strain Overview
Sour Diesel Autoflower is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain that combines the legendary genetics of Chemdawg 91 and Super Skunk with autoflowering Ruderalis genetics. This strain maintains the best qualities of sativa with the convenience of autoflowering genetics, resulting in a strain that offers an uplifting and energizing high typical of sativa strains while being easier to grow and quicker to harvest thanks to its Ruderalis genetics. The strain first gained prominence as part of the legendary Sour Diesel lineage, which was born in New York in the 1990s by a breeder then known as Asshole Joe, and has since been adapted into an autoflowering variety by multiple breeders worldwide.
The plant exhibits classic sativa characteristics with a 70% sativa-dominant profile that clearly shows through its effects and growth pattern, often reaching significant heights with long gangly branches and fan leaves. The autoflower version will only reach around 100-120cm tall, making it ideal for smaller indoor grow spaces. The plant tends to be tall and stalky, growing fluffy, light green buds with bright orange hairs, and the flower tends to be rich in trichomes, wrapping the bud in a crystalline coating of cannabinoid- and terpene-rich resin glands. The strain is renowned for its pungent, gas-like aroma with heavily skunky smell and taste, along with hints of spice and citrus from its complex terpene profile.
