There are two reasons they call it diesel. The obvious one is that it has a pungent aroma like diesel fuel that catches you in the back of the nostrils—even in a preroll. You can thank β-caryophyllene for clearing out your sinuses. The second reason is that this strain will make you rev up your engine. You'll want to throw open your blinds, your windows, maybe even your door and dance right out into the street.
Maybe you've been feeling down lately, a little lazy, or just plain bored, but if you're looking for a way to face your problems head-on, Sour Diesel is just the fuel to help you get there. Though technically only a sativa-dominant hybrid, this strain feels like a landrace sativa with its speedy cerebral head high. This particular phenotype is a little more on the chill side with a solid showing from β-myrcene, but it's still predominantly a pick-me-up strain.
