CUT AND DRIED:
A MONTHLY LOOK AT DIFFERENT MMJ STRAINS
BY BILLY BISHOP
This may be my favorite strain ever.
Really. It’s got everything I ever
wanted in a bud. And more...
Sour OG
Sour OG’s very high THC content
(more than 25 per cent) provides
an uplifting and relaxing emotional
high paired with a pain dampening
body buzz. Personally, this strain’s
effects on a wide spectrum of
medical conditions is outstanding.
Under simple test conditions, Sour
OG was used as a treatment for
the complex web of symptoms
associated with post-concussion
syndrome. The results of our tests
revealed that the pain management
side of Sour OG is truly outstanding.
And surprisingly fast-acting.
Its muscle relaxant side, also very
effective at treating symptoms of
IBS, made damaged neck muscles
and nerves relax within a very short
time. So it is with some surprise
that Broken Coast’s Sour OG also
gives the most satisfying and
uplifting emotional high possible.
This is really the finest point of this
strain as a medicinal treatment; its
boundlessly joyful emotional high
helps with the psychological stress
and mood imbalances caused by
long-term injury or medical
conditions. This is possibly the most
uplifting hybrid you will find today.
Background
Sour OG is a genetic cross between
Sour Diesel and OG Kush (which
manages to cram the best of both
worlds into one tidy bud).
Physically beautiful
Darker green with a strong frosting of
well-developed, highly visible trichomes.
Dark purple leaves with caramel
highlights at the tips look delicious.
Large, dense and sticky clusters of wellshaped
colas are packed together in a
complicated branching structure. These
are the definition of pretty nugs.
Lovely Smell
Strong but nuanced odor with subtle
sour chlorophyll notes at the high end
and a sweet, burned caramel/vanilla at
the low end. Nuances of green tea and
cucumber. These amazing and complex
fumes burst out of the canister and filled
the room with a sour piney haze when
first opened. This odor turned smooth
and earthy as it began to produce smoke.
End result: mouth watering.
Sublime Taste
The initial taste was smooth and mild with
strong diesel tones undercut with a citrus
sourness. The piney smell when fresh
quickly morphs into a hot buttered popcorn
flavor once smoked. There is clearly a high
level of complex terpenes in Sour OG. This
taste only gets more complex and caramellike
as it settles into your taste buds.
Opinion
My favorite strain yet from my favorite
medical provider. With the development
of this Sour OG, Broken Coast Cannabis
has outdone itself yet again. This bud
is tasty, strong, effective and, most of
all, uplifting.

controls at Broken Coasts Cannabis’

including headaches, nausea, dizziness and
depression can last for weeks, months or years
after the injury that caused the concussion.
