Sour Livers
Sour Livers Strain Overview
Sour Livers is an autoflowering cannabis strain developed by Mephisto Genetics as part of their Artisanal collection, officially released after over two years of development work that began in January 2015. The strain represents a cross between "The Livers," an old school cutting that has been preserved and circulated among growers in Northern England since at least the early 1990s, and Sour Crack F5, one of Mephisto's flagship autoflowering strains. "The Livers" parent is renowned for being both an excellent commercial producer and a high-quality head-stash variety, though it's notorious for its extremely intense aromatic profile that has earned it the nickname "prison weed" due to odor control challenges.
This indica-dominant hybrid contains 80% indica and 20% sativa genetics, developing into a compact, bushy plant structure with dense, resinous flowers. Sour Livers is not a large strain but rather aligns with the Auto-SOG (Sea of Green) style of cultivation, producing a compact bushy variety of top-notch quality that packs numerous flowers into a small area. The strain is particularly notable for being one of Mephisto's most aromatic varieties, requiring robust odor control systems during cultivation and curing.

Sour Livers Strain Growing Information
Sour Livers is an autoflowering strain with a fast flowering time of 60-70 days from sprout, producing yields of around 90-120 grams per plant with a compact height of 45-65cm, making it ideal for discreet outdoor growing. The strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments without requiring light cycle manipulation, automatically transitioning to flowering and producing densely thick, highly aromatic buds. It can be grown using Sea of Green (SOG) methods to maximize yields per square meter, though robust carbon filtration is strongly recommended indoors due to the strain's intense odor production. Cultivation difficulty is considered moderate - the strain benefits from gentle care during the seedling stage but becomes hardy once established, responding well to leaf tucking and lower branch clearing to optimize energy distribution to primary flowering sites.
