Sour Josh
Also known as: Sour John
What is the Sour Josh strain?
Sour Josh is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Sour Josh is a cannabis hybrid strain created by Karma Genetics as part of their Sour Diesel series, fusing the genetics of two celebrated strains: Sour Diesel BX2 x Josh D OG. Josh D OG is perhaps Karma Genetics' definitive OG Kush variety, with a lineage that includes legendary strains like San Fernando Valley OG, Hells Angels OG and Triangle Kush, making this a true cannabis thoroughbred with potency to match. The potency is spliced with a backcrossed Sour Diesel cut which brings all the sour, gassy fuel terpenes to the party, creating a unique hybrid that captures the best attributes of both parent strains.
Sour Josh produces large, fleshy flowers with swollen calyxes, whitened by a thick resin layer rich in terpenes and cannabinoids. The strain offers flavours and aromas that combine floral and spicy notes on an earthy base enriched with petrol notes. The buds display Brussels sprout color combined with sweet potato colored pistils and waterfalls of sugary trichomes. The over-the-top resin production and funky, fuel-based terpene profile make this an ideal candidate for legal extraction artists and terp farmers.
