I've had sour diesel from queens n.y and its much more smelly then this pheno, I think more hunting is needed to find a true stank ass pheno, this one smells good but I wouldn't say its the sour d that has to be sealed in a metal container to hide the smell. I mean if its in your pocket in a bag and your standing still it will smack you in the nose and people will know 100% that you have bud on you, but the sour we get in brooklyn or queens is like nothing you have ever smelled before !!!!! My boy came here from california, he has had sour out there and thought he knew what sour was, I got him a sack of n.y dour dour and knocked his socks off. But we have the true cuts of the real sour d and people have been perfecting that plant forever, I had sour in 2000 or 2001 before the frenzy started. All in all for trying to make sour in seed form I think california connection did a good job but I think I'm going to try to find an s1 that won't herm or the ibl to find something closer to the clone only, out here you can't call it sour diesel unless it needs to be in a metal container, even if it is real sour, it needs to be on point..or don't even try to call it sour...I would tell people this is "sour og" because that's what it is, its a great smoke but you will not be able to call it sour diesel in N.Y....and that's my honest opinion.......I need to keep things real for the people reading this report and counting on my word, its fire and a top shelf bud, massive yield, good smell and great sour d high but its lacking in smell and taste, it taste like sour but not that mouth watering sour that we have come to love on the east coast........not trying to hurt feelings, but after really sitting down and taking my time to taste and compare it to real deal sour those are my honest thoughts.....it could be the pheno I got, after all, I only did 2 seeds...I'm going to keep the plant around because its a good smoke and my brother likes it, also its so easy to grow, that's what I really like about it.....but like any clone only strain ITS CLONE ONLY BECAUSE ITS A 1 IN A MILLION PLANT....
