Strain Integrity

According to Leafly, ” Sour Diesel, sometimes called Sour D, is an invigorating sativa-dominant strain named after its pungent, diesel-like aroma. This fast-acting strain delivers energizing, dreamy cerebral effects that have pushed Sour Diesel to its legendary status. Stress, pain, and depression fade away in long-lasting relief that makes Sour Diesel a top choice among medical patients. This strain took root in the early ’90s, and it is believed to have descended from Chemdog 91 and Super Skunk. ”

From WikiLeaf, ” Because the underground cannabis market of the 1980s and 90s operated without any kind of lasting documentation, the exact origins of Sour Diesel are not known. Although a definitive agreement on its original genetic makeup doesn’t exist, Sour Diesel’s popularity has made it the subject of much speculation. Some believe that true Sour Diesel was derived as a distinct phenotype of an original strain simply named Diesel. ”

Note:  We are on the side of WikiLeaf believe that the original Sour Diesel strain was simply called “Diesel.”  We believe in the immaculate conception.

Conclusion

For us, the word “Sour” provokes uncontrollable Pavlovian salivation in expectation of cerebral fireworks.  And, Sour Diesel is the Granddaddy of Sativa royalty.  Diesel by Spinach does not disappoint delivering us “high” into the stratosphere where Life goes on forever.  We think this is worth a try for Sativa fans.

Would we buy this again?  We would definitely buy again in 7 grams, or 15 grams, or 28 grams quantity.   Spinach is an excellent cultivator and this rendition of “Diesel” is a validation of their excellence.

On an investment note, something is terribly wrong in Cronosland.  And, Cronos have the best partner any cannabis company would want … one of the largest tobacco companies, Altria.  There is a big disconnect between good quality products and really bad financial results.  With a $3 billion market cap and a trailing 12-month revenue of $29 million, this is watching a trainwreck in slow motion.  This is going to hurt and Cronos have done little to reduce prices.
