Smoked through a water pipe, Sour OG tastes like Lyson, in a good way -- just beware of munchies.

Have you ever had one of those days when you think, "I love what I do?" Today is one of those days. Sitting before the computer on a gray day, I am surrounded by pipes and grinders and some really nice Sour OG flower. It has been a long time -- too long -- since I've smoked something from the sour family.
Sour strains are classic, distinct cannabis strains. You know when you are smoking a sour or one of its progeny. Its distinct sour scent and flavor let you know from the first whiff.
Sour OG is a great Sativa/Indica hybrid bred from Sour Diesel and SFV OG Kush. This flower is from Green Bodhi and I am impressed enough to go back and try more of their strains. They practice organic "Intentional Horticulture" and their intentions are clearly of the best variety.
Appearance, Scent, Flavor: This is a great specimen of Sour OG. And of flower in general. It is well trimmed -- just bud, with minimal stem. The buds themselves are light green and sparkly with crystals. It is also well cured, but on the dry side, not sticky like Sour Diesel. Easy to light, with a good, clear, classic Sour OG flavor, it smokes smoothly, reducing to a nice, fluffy white ash, which means it was flushed thoroughly before harvest.
It smells. . . sour. Like I said, it's a distinct cannabis scent. Just a smell of this flower will make the taste buds on the back of your tongue tingle. There's a lemon verbena flavor, with more of a floral than a citrus sour. It reminded me of a horse pasture. As with horse pastures, the scent of "sour cannabis" can be an acquired taste. But once you acquire it, you may start to crave it.
Through a clean water pipe, my mouth was coated with the clean flavor of Lyson. I preferred the flavor through a traditional pipe. More complex, more verbena, less Lysol. The nice green flavor lasted through a couple of hits, which is always nice.
The Experience: I love sour strains on dark days. The bright flavor and scent always remind me of sun and warmth. Nice and toasty. This flower produced a euphoric and relaxing high. I remained mostly clear-headed and totally functional, and didn't detect much of the usual dry mouth and eyes. The high lasted a nice long while and the stoney phase seemed to go on forever. This is a weed for nursing. Unfortunately, it did make me want to eat everything in the house. I recommend filling your house with vegetables before enjoying this flower.
High in THC, the strain is good for pain and nausea. That said, strains that are really high in THC, over 25% like this, can actually cause nausea, so be careful. For medicating I generally prefer less potent THC strains, but this Sour OG is super fun. I have been looking to capture a more recreational feel since I've been using medicinally, and this does the trick. I felt like I was back in college, only with way better weed.

The often-applied rule of thumb is that sativa is more invigorating and energizing, while indica is more relaxing and calming — but it's not that simple. Individual plants produce varying effects, even among the same type of cannabis. It all depends on the plant's chemical composition and the growing technique used.
Stress and Anxiety Relief: The relaxing and mood-enhancing properties of Sour Kush may help alleviate symptoms of stress, anxiety, and even depression. Pain Management: Sour Kush's analgesic properties may provide relief for chronic pain conditions, including headaches, migraines, and muscle aches.

The higher CBD content in indica can mean that for many people, it causes a relaxing, soothing feeling in the body. But experts also point to its higher levels of the terpene myrcene as a reason for a sleepy feeling. For this reason, some people choose to take this strain in the evening hours.
Sour Animal Cookies is an indica dominant hybrid strain (75% indica/25% sativa). Sour Animal Cookies effect comes on fast and hard with an uplifted feeling that leaves a happy and unfocused euphoria.
High-THC sativa strains. Sativas usually have higher levels of THC and lower levels of CBD. They tend to produce a stimulating or invigorating effect, making them better for daytime use.
Unlike Indica strains which cause a body high, Sativa strains induce a euphoric head high. Sativa strains also contain higher levels of limonene and pinene terpenes, which are associated with mental clarity and mood elevation. All these effects can provide favorable conditions for an intriguing sexual encounter.
Sativa has a higher THC content, making it more energizing and delivering the characteristic "high" one expects with cannabis. Indica has a higher CBD content and induces calm, making it ideal for relieving stress, anxiety, and pain.

It is a potent cross between the wildly popular Sour Diesel X S.A.G.E. Hybrid. This strain has a sweet herby sage taste with a hint of sour earth upon exhale and an aroma of sour herby sage. The Sage N' Sour has a fast euphoric clear-headed high accompanied by a mild body buzz.
