Super Sour OG
Also known as: Super Sour OG Kush, SSOG
Super Sour OG Strain Overview
Super Sour OG is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that combines the genetics of two legendary strains: Sour Diesel and OG Kush. This strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create a cultivar that would inherit the cerebral effects of Sour Diesel while maintaining the physical relaxation and distinctive flavor profile of OG Kush. The result is a versatile hybrid that has gained popularity in both recreational and medicinal cannabis communities, particularly in North American markets where both parent strains have strong followings.
Visually, Super Sour OG typically produces dense, resinous buds with a classic OG Kush structure, featuring a compact, conical shape. The flowers display a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler growing conditions. The strain is known for its heavy trichome coverage, giving the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance. Orange pistils weave through the dense flower structure, creating an attractive contrast. The buds are often medium to large in size and have a firm, dense texture when properly cultivated.
Notable characteristics of Super Sour OG include its complex aroma profile and balanced effects. The strain inherits the fuel-like, diesel scent from its Sour Diesel parent while maintaining the earthy, piney undertones characteristic of OG Kush. This combination creates a distinctive sensory experience that many cannabis enthusiasts appreciate. The balanced genetic profile makes it suitable for various times of day, though some users may find it more appropriate for evening use due to its potentially sedative effects in higher doses.

Super Sour OG Strain Growing Information
Super Sour OG is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though indoor cultivation allows for better control of environmental factors.
Indoor yields average 14-18 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-22 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. The plants tend to grow to a medium height, typically reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors. Super Sour OG responds well to training techniques such as topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields and manage height. The plants prefer a Mediterranean-like climate with moderate humidity and temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C).
Special considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold and mildew, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain is moderately resistant to common pests but benefits from regular monitoring. Nutrient requirements are average, though some growers report that Super Sour OG responds well to slightly higher phosphorus levels during flowering. The plants produce a strong odor during the flowering phase, requiring adequate odor control measures for discreet cultivation.
