Sour Cherry is a modern hybrid-sativa strain developed from the genetics of Project 13. As a project focused on specific modern breeding traits, it yields high results when cultivated in either indoor or outdoor environments. For growers, the strain presents a moderate level of difficulty and requires a standard 61-day flowering period to reach technical maturity.

The aromatic and flavor profile of Sour Cherry is defined by a primary concentration of terpinolene, followed by secondary notes of myrcene and tertiary hints of caryophyllene. This specific chemical arrangement creates a distinct sensory experience that anchors the strain’s sensory identity. With a cannabinoid profile that is THC-dominant at approximately 5.1 percent and a negligible CBD content of 0.01 percent, the strain maintains a consistent chemical consistency that reflects its hybrid-sativa classification.

In terms of functional application, Sour Cherry is characterized by effects that are creative, uplifted, and happy. These properties make it an ideal choice for users seeking support for creativity, social interactions, or periods requiring sustained focus. While the strain remains a notable addition to the modern hybrid-sativa catalog, there are currently no recorded offspring for Sour Cherry within current genetic archives.
