Sour Skittlez
Sour Skittlez
Also known as: Sour Zkittlez, Sour Zkittles, Sour Z, Sour Skittles 20
Overview
Sour Skittlez is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (70% sativa/30% indica) created through crossing the legendary Sour Diesel and Bubble Gum strains. The strain was meticulously bred by Dying Breed Seeds, who engineered it to harness the best traits of each genetic component. However, some sources indicate it's a cross between Zkittlez and Sour Diesel strains. This discrepancy suggests there may be multiple versions of similarly named strains in circulation.
The strain packs a mouthwatering sour tropical citrus flavor with a fruity candy bubblegum exhale, while the aroma is of earthy tropical fruits with a sweet bubblegum effect that turns slightly spicy as the nugs are broken apart. The buds appear as flat, grape-shaped green nugs covered in light amber hairs and a frosty layer of tiny amber crystal trichomes. With THC levels typically ranging from 20% to 24%, this potent concentration places Sour Zkittlez among the stronger strains in the cannabis market.
