Sour Chunk

Deep Chunk and East Coast Sour Diesel. If you enjoy either of those strains, then you’re sure to love Sour Chunk, bred of these two popular parents. While it’s unclear exactly who we have to thank for this sativa-dominant strain, they deserve a fruit basket of appreciation. Sour Chunk is every daytime stoner’s best friend and will soon be yours too.

We know, 12% THC isn’t much to write home about anymore, but when it comes to this strain, that’s actually okay. More often than not it’s the visual appeal of these nugs that sell themselves, as airy and large pieces feature long amber hairs, a forest green color, and very chunky trichomes. You’d think that with a name like Sour Chunk, the flavor of this bud would be less than stellar. Think again, as citrus, earth, and a touch of diesel make a welcome appearance on your taste buds.

So far so good, right? The high you’ll experience with Sour Chunk is one that’s hard to duplicate with any other strain, as you’ll be lifted and relaxed at the same time. There’s very little comedown here, and although the high is somewhat short-lived, you’ll be buzzing around from task to task with a creative energy that’s simply awesome. This strain does come with the munchies, so make sure to pack an extra snack or two in your lunch as you’ll likely need it. Sour Chunk can be enjoyed before a busy day of work or on the weekends when you’re about to go on an adventure with friends.

Some medical conditions require tons of CBD and very high THC to really treat them effectively, so Sour Chunk may not be applicable for everyone. However, if you do struggle with stress or depression, cramps, or headaches, it’s a great alternative to popping a pill. It’s best to say that this bud brings moderate and general pain relief, and if you can feel better while enjoying a little extra pep in your step, why not?

A super popular plant to grow at home, this strain is ideal for first-time growers and can become a staple in any experienced cultivator’s garden. Sour Chunk is highly resistant to mold and mildew, and typically flowers quickly within 6 to 7 weeks. Plants end up being pretty tall and lanky, so while you can grow her indoors or outside, make sure to fully evaluate the amount of space you have.

Choose Sour Chunk as a perfect introductory strain or keep some in your stash when you know you’ll need a little extra help getting through the day. Given her ability to grow easily at home, her lovely flavors, and her stellar effects, she’s pretty much perfect. If only the high would last just a tiny bit longer…
