Chemdawg Sour Diesel Seeds

Growing Tips for Chemdawg Sour Diesel

The Chemdawg Sour Diesel strain takes a veteran green thumb to grow to completion. Chemdawg Sour Diesel cannabis plants will thrive both indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the grower's ability to manage the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will need to replicate a steady environment with warm temperatures and moderate humidity, similar to what these plants prefer during a long, sunny growing season. Chemdawg Sour Diesel seeds produce plants that are covered in dusty resinous trichomes and orange pistils. If you are going to grow outdoors, you will need to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to harvest. Doing so will ensure that you grow potent and pungent buds from the top of the plants to the bottom. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the ideal outdoor climate they require without having to contend with unexpected outdoor variables — particularly useful in many Canadian regions where the growing season can be unpredictable. These plants grow medium to tall and can reach around 0.6–2.3 metres in height. Because the plants can reach a maximum outdoor height of nearly 2.3 metres, you will need to consistently monitor their height so that they do not overgrow. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 20–29°C and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 40–60% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage. Growing indoors will ensure that moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are constant and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. Mainlining, pruning, supercropping, and low-stress training (LST) are the most commonly used training techniques for this strain. Employing these techniques will ensure that your yields are as high as they can be. The Chemdawg Sour Diesel strain requires an 18–20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative stage of growth. Changing the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle will help to induce the flowering stage of growth.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Chemdawg Sour Diesel strain to harvest after a long flowering period of 70–80 days.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square metre, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 450 grams per plant. The longer flowering period means that harvesting this strain takes a little more patience than others.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers in Canada can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of November, depending on when the seeds were planted and local climate conditions.

Chemdawg Sour Diesel: Gassy and Sour

The Chemdawg Sour Diesel terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while myrcene and limonene are the secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant - Most commonly found in black pepper and cinnamon. Known as the spicy and peppery terpene.
• Myrcene: Secondary Terpene - Known as the "mother of all terpenes", myrcene gives cannabis plants the earthy and pungent aroma they are known for.
• Limonene: Citrus Flavour - Commonly found in the rinds of citrus fruits, this terpene can help with anxiety and improve lung function when found in cannabis.
