Sour Diesel reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Sour Diesel.
Classic euphoric sativa. Skunk bud for days
Amazing strain to get things done during the day!! relaxing high but energetic! love smoking this before I do school work!
Sour Diesel is one of my go to sativa's if I'm looking for a bit of the indica weight but mostly a light, clean & very citrus'y high. Taste is amazing on the batch I had and mixes really well with other types like Lemon Skunk if you wana keep it light or blue cheese if you wana get a little heavier.
The sum of the reviews and "bars" here gives a pretty accurate preview. THAT's great, that we can hunt strains using Leafly's database. And this strain was recognizable in Flower, Wax and Oil.
The majority of "up" sativa cannabis can be so "mental" that it easily turns into anxiety and thought-shuffling confusion. Sour Diesel, instead, is comforting. It's also distinctly different from a lot of popular cannabis in that it has a bodily energy built-in. It IS energizing, and not in a silly giggly sort of way. You can focus almost as much as you want/need to, while the senses are expanded. Some (insightful) thought patterns have surprised me, a smidge of psychedelia. Fun with friends.
Yet it's got insulation qualities so you can allow your attention to drift, and good muscle relaxation, again not in a typical, sedating way. In fact the energy drive is hard to turn off. Not knowing the source, I might have suspected "lacing". I managed to get a lot done that day - definitely energized. A little THC flutter at higher levels, took a little effort to stay on track. And not recommended at bedtime. Since it didn't knock me off my feet, it first seemed a bit weak, but after a moment, big slow waves of different effects were coming my way.
The most surprising thing was how much my sciatica (lower back pinched nerves) pain improved. Not by distraction, as with many sativas, but by something more like a super-indica "real analgesic" effect from the waist down. I was able to walk twice as long as normally, and this effect persisted for hours, longer than expected, even a trace into the next morning. Synergizes well with my Rx pain meds. I'm guessing that this is a specific effect that won't work for everyone. If you're one of the sensitive-to-SD patients with lower back problems, you'll be rewarded ;-)
This is definitely a fascinating one to check out, and a good "tool" strain, as opposed to a "state" strain. It's easy to understand why the Diesel derivs are so popular. I suspect it can be a day-long regular for many.
Love it!
Great strain! I usually wake with sciatic nerve pain but not after some of this! Great for pain and alleviating depression and anxiety symptoms. Happy, contemplative, high.

This strain is never a disappointment. Pungent sour smell,sour skittles taste, and a great sativa mental high. Great for dazing off from society and escaping life's problems
I felt like the dude on the red bull commercial with those little wings on my back making hover around my house. awesome strain.
