Origins, Genetics, History

Sour Kush Type: Sour Kush is a balanced, 40 percent Sativa and 60 percent Indica. It is descended from:

• Sour Diesel
• OG Kush

This is a very serious strain. With THC levels up to 25 percent, this is one of the most powerful weeds on the market. It is a descendant of the famed OG Kush. OG is said to stand for ‘ocean grown’, referring to the fertile lands off the California coast, of course, not literally on the ocean. The Kush refers to the Hindu Kush mountains, from which the landrace strain which was the parents of OG Kush hailed. Therefore, the name itself gives you history. Sour Diesel is another strain, famed for its flavor and potency. When you combine the two, you get a true, flavorful knockout punch of a weed.

Looks and Flavors

Sour Kush is a medium size plant, standing about four feet tall. You could walk up to it, bend slightly and smell the powerful scent of the buds. By all means, be discreet if you are growing this strain. It may be legal in your jurisdiction, but you still don’t want the whole place smelling like Sour Kush. The leaves are bright green and wide and the buds are studded with powdery, white trichomes packing a serious punch of THC. The buds have a typical Indica structure, large and juicy. The mature plant flowers into a rainbow of color, bright green, orange hairs, and bright, white trichomes. This is a beautiful plant.
The scent of Sour Kush is sour, diesel, earthy, spicy, and citrus. It smells like a natural, landrace plant, with the scent of the Hindu Kush mountain valley in its genes. It smells very natural, yet very, very, potent. The scent will stay in your nose for a long time and tickle every nerve in your spine.

How to Grow Sour Kush Cannabis Seeds or Cuttings

Growing weed from Sour Kush cannabis seeds or cuttings will require a small level of skill. This is a strong plant that will do much of the growing up automatically. Still, you want to put your attention on producing the highest, best quality yield you can produce. It can be grown outdoors, indoors, or in a greenhouse.
If you grow your plants outside, they will respond to the mild stresses of the environment and produce a bounty of nutrients, terpenes, and cannabinoids, so this is a good choice. Since this plant is a Kush, it will grow strong and hardy. You need to find a spot which has good soil and use a good fertilizer like Flower Power or your favorite personal blend. Be sure you plant away from pests and pollutants. You can expect flowering to occur in the middle of October in the US and a yield of about 16 ounces per plant.
If you grow your plants indoors, use a grow tent. These are medium-sized plants so allow them plenty of room. You can use high discharge lamps to light your plants. Put reflective material on the inside of your tent to keep the light focused on your hungry plants so that photosynthesis can occur. You will need an exhaust system with an air filter to keep the air crisp and circulating. Use a fan to move the air. Measure the humidity to keep the air dry to discourage the growth of molds and mildews. You can induce flowering after 9 weeks, using a 12 hours flight, 12 hours dark lighting schedule. You can expect a yield of 12 ounces per square meter.
If you grow in a greenhouse, you can get the best of both worlds. You can put your plants directly into the ground or use flower pots. Some people prefer that their plants be connected directly to mother earth. There are complicated things going on in the natural soil. Plants communicate through a mycelium network which can be extremely deep beneath the earth. This can be helpful to your plants and infuse them with the essence of the earth. However, your plants can also thrive in flower pots. You can use an automatic watering system or if you have the time and enjoy it, you can tend to the plants yourself. These plants will not require excessive care, but if you want a massive and quality yield, you may want to give your plants extra attention. In a greenhouse you can expect a yield of about 12 ounces per square meter.
