Editorial profile

Sour Diesel Auto in detail

Origin & classification

Sour Diesel Auto is a self-flowering, sativa-leaning strain from Sour Diesel × BF Super Auto #1. With up to 24 % THC, Sour Diesel Auto clearly falls into the stronger range. CBD plays more of a secondary role at up to 0,7 %.

Aroma & flavour

In terms of aroma, Sour Diesel Auto is primarily piney, citrusy, diesel-like and sour. Myrcene, Caryophyllene and Limonene complement this impression and give the profile additional depth. The combination of sweeter and classically spicy notes makes the strain more distinctive than many smoother standard hybrids.

Terpene profile

Sour Diesel Auto is generally described as energetic and creative in terms of effects. Overall, it therefore comes across as more open, lively and present than heavy or sedating.

Effect tendency

The Automatic characteristic also makes the strain interesting for anyone looking for a more compact and clearly predictable life cycle. The sources also repeatedly mention dense, compact and resinous flowers. The strain is likewise described as rather pronounced, present and not particularly subtle in terms of aroma and flavour.

Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance

Sour Diesel Auto may be particularly appealing to people who prefer brighter, more pronounced and head-focused strains. Those who enjoy classic, direct and less polished strain profiles may find this direction more appealing than purely trend-driven strains.

Further classification

Sour Diesel Auto relies on a self-flowering structure and is therefore clearly recognisable as an Automatic. Its descent from Sour Diesel x BF Super Auto #1 makes the genetic direction of Sour Diesel Auto easy to understand. Aromatically, it presents a sweet, fruity direction: piney, citrusy, diesel-like and sour. It is primarily described as energetic and creative. With up to 24 % THC, Sour Diesel Auto falls into the stronger end of the strain spectrum. With up to 0,7 % CBD, this value clearly remains secondary in Sour Diesel Auto. As a result, Sour Diesel Auto is not merely dessert-like, but gains additional edge from modern, louder notes. Limonene works particularly well with Sour Diesel Auto's sweet-fruity side and gives it a fresher contour.
