Everything you need to know about Sour Cream Cannabis Strain
Sour cream is a controversial condiment. However, it has much greater appeal than the strain Sour Cream. This hybrid, which is sativa-leaning, is the result of H-13 Haze's perennial favorite Sour Diesel. This hybrid was developed by DNA Genetics in Amsterdam, who also gave us Chocolope and a stabled cut of Hair Band that we call "707".Analytical 360, a cannabis testing lab, has determined that Sour Cream contains a steady 17% of THC.
Looks of Sour Cream Strain
The distinctive feature of Sour Cream strain is its large, solid flowers. They retain their dense, heavy buds when cured but they have a tapered, conical form more typical to sativas. The leaves are a bright shade of kelly-green and slightly yellowish in color. The tightly packed leaves are encrusted with hairy brown pistils. Amber-colored trichomes cover the surfaces of the flowers, making them sticky and difficult for people to remove.
Sour Cream Marijuana Strain Aroma
This strain's primary aroma is a strong, pungent musk with a hint of gasoline from its parent strain Sour Diesel. These earthy base notes are brightened by a citrus scent. The smell of Sour Cream is faintly cheesy and can be made by breaking open or grinding it. Although Sour Cream is easy to swallow once it has been combusted the smell is pleasant and smooth. However, its bitter odors can sting eyes and sinuses. The smoke smells of dank earth and sour lime on the exhale.
Effects of Sour Cream Cannabis Strain
You will feel a rush of energy and pressure in your eyes and temples when you take Sour Cream. The initial effects are a sudden increase in cerebral focus. Sounds and colors may become sharper or more visible and can take on a new psychedelic quality. Users will feel a gradual relaxation and tingling sensation as the high progresses. Breathing will become more slow and easy, and any muscular tension that is deep-seated will disappear. This sedation can progress to full-on couchlock if the dosage is increased. Smokers can still be lucid, talkative, and able to concentrate on stressful tasks without any distractions. Sour Cream strain can be used at any hour of the day because it is not too cerebral or overly sedative.
Medical Benefits of Sour Cream
The balanced strain is also useful for medical cannabis patients. The relaxing properties of Sour Cream may ease the pains and aches of users, regardless of whether they are chronic or incidental. The anti-spasmodic qualities of Sour Cream can help to lessen certain seizure disorders. This strain can also be used to treat insomnia if it is given in sufficient amounts. Psychologically, Sour Cream's ability to maintain a steady focus can help people with attention deficit disorder focus on one task. Because Sour Cream's sativa nature is grounded in indica relaxation, there is less chance of paranoia. This makes it a good choice for people who are prone to panic attacks or have low tolerance to THC.
Growing Sour Cream Marijuana Strain
DNA Genetics now offers Sour Cream seeds for sale and you can easily buy it at your local cannabis dispensary. However you can grow it at your home. Although it can be grown indoors or outdoors, success in outdoor cultivation requires a warm and semi-humid environment with daytime temperatures between 72 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Sour Cream, like many other sativa-dominant strains, has a lengthy flowering period of approximately 10-11 weeks indoors. It is ready to harvest when it is grown outdoors in late October. Growers will get a high yield with this strain, which produces 46 to 55 grams or 1.6 to 2 ounces of flowers per square foot. This strain can be very pungent, so it is recommended that indoor growers invest in odor control measures such as exhaust fans or carbon air filters.Also, growers need to take care of their buds properly. First, dry the buds upside-down for 7-10 days at temperatures of 70° Fahrenheit and 50% humidity. The dried buds should then be placed in sealed jars at 60 to 65 percent humidity. They should also be kept at 70 degrees. To ensure they don't develop mold, it is important to inspect buds at least once a day after they are jarred.Sour Cream achieves the perfect balance of indica and sativa. This is a great option for those who want to focus their mental energy without the anxiety that can come with stronger, purer strains of cannabis.
