Impressed, I am, by how close a representation of the original Sour Diesel mom these IBLs are. Rez did it! He captured the legendary Sour Diesel in seed form! I no longer have any doubt about it.
There was very little variation among the ladies. I grew out 20 seeds, only three were male. Call me lucky, I suppose.
Even the smell of the Sour Diesel was properly preserved, with only the slightest variation in aromas. Any Sour Diesel fan would recognize the smells from these ladies as Sour Diesel. At 76 days of flower, it is good.
To make this even more interesting, I flowered out the original Sour Diesel mother clone alongside the from-seed IBL Sours... which provided a valuable side-by-side comparison any Sour lover can appreciate.
This is the first run of marijuana at our new garden. The new location has wonderful water quality, resulting in wonderfully pure Sour Diesel aromas. The last garden's water supply was not perfect for pot growing, which made flushing the herb very difficult. How can one flush cannabis with water that contains unhelpful amounts calcium and iron and nitrates? This new locale has water as clean as the finest bottled spring water. What a difference in the smoke! The quality of your water source is probably more important than most growers realize.
Anyhow, I'm sure you all would like to cut to the chase and see the ladies.
I'll start off with the mother of all Sours, the Queen of the Vile, Mistress of Mayhem... the Sour Diesel mother clone herself. I present her first so that you can compare the IBLs that follow.
