Sour Joker Strain

The Sour Joker comes from the cross of Amnesia Haze and East Coast Sour Diesel. This Sativa-dominant strain originated in the Sierra Nevadas, making Sour Joker a staple among smokers from California to Colorado. The aroma of this strain is earthy, tangy citrus complemented by a sweet undertone of berries.

This strain’s effects are uplifting and euphoric, with a cerebral high that never overpowers the senses. This is a strain that gives you extra energy and focus with its strong CBD-rich genetics, even as it delivers a powerful sensation of stress relief in your body.

Sour Joker is well-suited for medical marijuana patients seeking a boost in physical activity due to its uplifting, motivating properties — including better moods, relief from stress and chronic pain, appetite control, anti-inflammatory benefits, and enhanced cognitive function.

The adverse effects of Sour Joker may include dry mouth and eyes. It is not recommended for novice marijuana consumers due to those effects and the high that can be too strong for some beginner smokers that may cause dizziness and paranoia. The THC levels of this strain are high at between 18 and 23%.

Growing this strain is easy as long as the proper genetics are chosen. This strain has a deep green color with purple undertones. The buds of this strain have medium-sized orange hairs and dense frosty trichomes. Sour Joker is a heavy producer, yielding between 450 and 500 grams per plant under ideal conditions. It can be grown indoors and outdoors.

Flowering usually takes between nine and 10 weeks, and the strain is often grown in hydro systems because it does well with high-intensity lighting. Sour Joker can be harvested at the end of October, depending on the height of the plant.
