Sourz is a modern hybrid cannabis strain derived from the genetic cross of Tangiemonkey. Cultivators can expect a moderate level of difficulty when growing this strain, which thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments. The plant requires a flowering period of approximately 70 days to reach maturity, ultimately rewarding the grower with a high-yield harvest.
The terpene profile of Sourz is characterized by a dominant presence of terpinolene, supported by secondary levels of myrcene, caryophyllene, and pinene. The sensory experience is further nuanced by a complex array of limonene, humulene, beta-pinene, and ocimene, with trace contributions from linalool, alpha-terpinene, gamma-terpinene, guaiol, and isopulegol. This specific chemical composition creates a distinct aromatic and flavorful identity that reflects its diverse terpene structure.
As a THC-dominant hybrid, Sourz induces effects that are primarily relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make the strain a suitable choice for users seeking relief from stress and pain, or aid in facilitating sleep. The genetic legacy of this strain is evidenced by its notable offspring, which include Limez and Yuki Soda.

Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
