Strawberry Sour Haze
An electrifying sativa-dominant hybrid crossing Kyle Kushman's Strawberry Cough with Super Silver Sour Diesel Haze.
What is Strawberry Sour Haze?
Strawberry Sour Haze is a masterclass in sativa breeding from the team at Connoisseur Genetics. By taking the legendary, flavor-packed Kyle Kushman Strawberry Cough and pairing it with the raw power of Super Silver Sour Diesel Haze, they created a strain that defines the "flavor meets function" ethos of modern cannabis.
This cultivar is prized for its soaring, cerebral high and a flavor profile that perfectly balances candied berries with a sharp, fuel-heavy exhale. It is a tall, vigorous grower that demands attention but rewards the patient gardener with massive, resin-coated spears that smell like a strawberry patch inside a mechanic's shop.
Terpene Profile
The Strawberry Sour Haze terpene profile is loud and unmistakable. It leads with a sweet, artificial strawberry aroma (reminiscent of its Cough parentage) which is quickly undercut by the aggressive gaseous and citrus notes of the SSH and Sour Diesel lineage.
Growing Strawberry Sour Haze
As a Haze-dominant hybrid, this strain loves to stretch. It requires an experienced hand to manage its vertical growth, especially in indoor environments. It thrives in SOG (Sea of Green) or Scrog (Screen of Green) setups where its height can be controlled and its heavy colas supported.
Key Growing Tips
-
Vertical ManagementFlip to flower early; this strain can easily triple in size during the first 3 weeks of 12/12
-
AirflowDue to massive bud size, ensure high CFM and low humidity to prevent bud rot
-
FeedingLoves a heavy PK boost in mid-flower to support its high-yield potential
Support is mandatory. Use double trellising or heavy-duty stakes to prevent the long, heavy sativa branches from snapping under their own weight during the final weeks.
Flower Quality & Smoke
The finished flower is a visual treat, often displaying bright neon greens with golden pistils. While it has Haze DNA, the bud structure is surprisingly dense thanks to the Strawberry Cough influence. The smoke is expansive and "thick," leaving a lingering sweetness on the palate.
Effects & Experience
The **Strawberry Sour Haze effects** are largely centered in the mind. It is a "daytime" strain through and through, providing a burst of creative energy and social confidence. It is a favorite for artists, musicians, and anyone looking to stay active and productive while medicated.
