Sour Diesel

Sour diesel is great it really helps me out with my ADHD and keeps my focus at a maximum while keeping my spirits uplifted and my thoughts happy as well. While I wouldn't classify this as a patrol or gasoline on from it's Chemdog side, it does provide a 50-50 side of Sativa and Indica. If you're looking to break through to your creative roadblock and put you on the right track again sour diesel can accomplish this for you beware of it's dry mouth and pungent kick it has.

Before school, I would get up at 5am and leave for a 7am walk through a nature park to get to my high school, and for a long time, this was the only strain I had, and I would have a small joint (about 0.2 g, no tobacco, it ruins everything, and increases health risk), I'd get to school (my form class was the music room), and work on my composition work with the DAW the school had access to. Along with going out for regular hikes, so I have had lots of active and focused experience. The smell is of diesel, not exactly my favourite smell at all, so that's where I personally disagreed with the strain, but that is subjective, and it shan't go into the review as something bad. The taste is earthy and unlike the smell, I found it fairly typical for taste, nothing special, not unpleasant, but not overly nice (Super Lemon Haze, Forbidden Fruits, OG Kush are stand outs for smell and taste, Purple Kush as well). The effects are very similar to caffeine, but still, being cannabis, it is definitely not. It is typically relaxing and cannabis-like, but it differs in focus, with my ADHD, I can find it hard to get into any zone, this strain definitely made that easier, and along with the energetic boost (unnecessary for me but oh well), it can be great for both focused work and activity (do not lift heavy weights with this though, cannabis is still cannabis and impairs motor function temporarily, do not lunge with a barbell or squat with a barbell, it is extremely reckless to do so while high, no matter your tolerance, just don't get high when you plan to do heavy resistance training), such as hiking (especially nature hiking). It can also be great for hiking with friends, as it is euphoric and uplifting as well, however, it is also brilliant for a Spring daytime walk by yourself, get yourself in a secluded spot in a forest/woodland and play some music (don't disturb wildlife and don't throw your joint ends on the ground, I don't care if they're compostable, it is a fire hazard, it is annoying when I see it on my land and very deadly if one was to start a fire), and relax yourself a little, then once finished, drink some water, and hike to your heart's content. It tends to mellow out as you get past the first few hours, but you will still feel relaxed and somewhat focused. The high lasts for many hours and the effects after last for many more. It can also be great in the early evening for an evening walk, as it mellows out after two hours, perfect for brushing teeth, reading and sleeping. If you're a daily smoker, this is good for maintaining something resembling a sober life whilst being high, if like me you're occasional, then if you can get some of this, it'll be an interesting walk. In summary, a strain great for being active and maintaining focus on something, main high lasts for some hours, the many hours after will be more mellow yet still have an impact on you, great for Spring daytime nature hiking.

I give this strain a 4.5/5 Sour Diesel is a classic. One of the very first strains I tried (Along with White Rhino) and is still great to smoke today. What's funny is I was watching Drugs Inc & they showed a bunch of people going nuts for Sour Diesel like it was the only strain that was any good. If a bunch of people that don't have medical cards know & crave a strain that's a pretty good indicator how popular it is. Anyways definite sativa, gives me a little energy and a lot of euphoria with a side of cotton mouth. Not to mention when coming down I get the munchies from hell.
