What is the Sour Flower strain?

Sour Flower is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its happy effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.

Sour Flower is a direct descendant of Super Silver Haze, a potent sativa-dominant hybrid that was subjected to selective inbreeding. This strain is described as a back-crossing of the two-time Cannabis Cup winner Super Silver Haze. While some sources list it as a 50/50 hybrid providing equal amounts of indica and sativa, others indicate it contains 11% THC as a sativa-dominant beast with unclear specific balance ratios. The specific balance of sativa to indica is unclear, as Sour Flower flies mostly beneath the radar and is anything but easy to find, though it's somewhat popular in California, Arizona, and Oregon.

Unlike its light and airy antecedent, Sour Flower produces dense, albeit small, sugar-coated nugs that look like they've been kissed by the morning dew and then dipped in white glitter. The buds are olive green in color and occasionally show flashes of purple throughout them, with dark brown and orange hairs twisting in and out of a thick sticky wall of trichomes. Sour Flower has a smell all its own - the olfactory equivalent of the color pink, quite reminiscent of pink Laffy Taffy. This full-bodied connoisseur strain features a tropical mélange of pineapple, coconut, and banana, with a peachy base where no one scent dominates the other in a true equal-parts blend, rounded out by a soft, floral aroma with a hint of chrysanthemum. It was bred for the remarkable high that a double-dose of Super Silver Haze was sure to produce – in other words, head stash, not commercial production.
