Sour Cheese is a happy hybrid strain that is great for getting social and creative. This cross of Cheese and Sour Diesel (or possibly Strawberry Diesel) leaves many feeling ready to make art, listen to music, or get philosophical with friends. These plants flower in 8 to 9 weeks, grow well indoors and out, and tend to produce high yields.

Got some really positive and happy vibe from this strain. Vaped it at 180 and then at 200 and 210 when the high kicked in. Body feels relaxed but active. Feld slightly hungrier also.

everytime I see lemon cheese I must get it. big big frosty beautiful bugs. although it's the taste and feel I'm after. taste: incredible it's definitely has a cheesy lineage with a diesely hint. a lemon and cream taste. like lemons and cream. feel: of you suffer from anxiety, depression, panic attack etc. you should enjoy this strain. it's a great mood changer and for the better. I have serious anxiety. not once from sour cheese. very uplifting & euphoric. I find it lasts me a bit as well. mmm want some now. p.s. ( can't smoke buzz light gear😭. super panic everyone's different

got a batch yesterday. let me tell u the Nugs I got .... Amazing. I got a Quad of this Sour Cheese an all Nugs are over 2 grams a piece. the biggest bud weigh out at 3.2 grams. was a real eye catcher... then came the smell. wow. very very pungent. could smell it all over when I open the bag. then came the smoke. was very smooth. rich hits. an good after taste. effects came on slow at first. then got a big boost of happiness. got me thinking about work an other things to do. was a good lookn strain. smoke is mellow. an not sure if I get this strain again. but was nice to dip into these beautiful buds

Sour Cheese wasn’t the best smoke. The buds were large but had huge leaf strands. The high was short-acting and weak. I ended up going through my purchase almost twice as quick as normal. 6/10.

I've had the pleasure of tasting some very yummy Sour Cheese from Green Health Cooperative in Seattle, WA. So yummy in fact that after trying it I had to return and get some more. When you open the jar and take a whiff you are greeted with a splash of pungent sour that quickly turns into a smooth cheese. Colored in a light to medium green and absolutely covered in orange hairs and glistening trichomes these buds are dense and cured to perfection. The buds release a satisfying snap that throws trichomes into the air when broken from the stems. I always blaze my flowers out of a bong and as usual with cheese, this has a thick yet very smooth smoke that doesn't leave you coughing. As the effects set in you definitely feel a dryness to the eyes and mouth. The high is very relaxed and not too heady, and after a few bowls my teeth were a bit tingly. It is definitely a functional high. I wouldn't say it was energetic, but I wasn't fatigued or "couch-locked" at all. I happen to try this at the end of a sinus.. thing. This bud will dry up your entire head, so if you have sinus issues (allergies) that leave your nose runny be aware of that. I would definitely recommend trying some of this delicious bud.
