Seb's take

Seb Silverback

California Sour crossed onto a rare Lemon OG phenotype, and the citrus shows before you've even broken the bud open. Zesty lemon, juicy lime, and a sour apple edge over a whisper of Kush; the high is sociable, happy, and energetic. Crush a bud and your fingers will smell of it for the rest of the day.

Where it comes from

California Sour crossed onto a rare Lemon OG phenotype by Emerald Triangle Seeds - the record is specific that the OG side is a unique pheno, not the common cut, which is the pedigree's quiet point of pride. Sixty-five per cent sativa, and bred squarely for the citrus the name advertises. Where many a cross buries its parents, this one wears the Lemon OG on its sleeve, and on your fingertips.

Nose & flavour

Lemon and lime lead, zesty and juicy, with a sour-apple edge and just a whisper of classic Kush underneath - a fruit bowl of a nose over the faintest earthy anchor. Crush a bud and the record promises your fingers will smell of citrus for the rest of the day, and there is a terpene overload in every one to back the claim. Bright, sharp, and genuinely mouthwatering.

The high

Eighteen per cent THC behind a sociable, upbeat high - happy and energetic, the sort that suits company and conversation rather than a quiet corner. Bright in direction, matching the nose. A daytime strain by temperament, lively without tipping into anxious. Good-natured, and easy to share around.

Growing it

Neither height nor yield is set down in the record, so I will not invent figures for either - describe her instead as a sativa-leaning plant that takes a patient seventy to seventy-seven days in flower. The buds stay sticky to the touch even after a proper dry and cure, thanks to a heavy coat of resin, so expect to gum up your scissors at trim. Give her the full window; the citrus is worth the wait.
