Sour Lump (Sour Diesel x Loompa's Headband) sits between Sour Diesel and Loompa's Headband: the East Coast benchmark for aggressive chemical fuel on one side, the Loompa Farms selection, also called Underdawg OG on the other. Both parents here are cuts CSI keep in their own room. That is the whole difference between this and a seed line named after the same strains.

Sour Diesel sits on the seed side here, Loompa's Headband on the pollen side. If you have seen these two names paired the other way round, that is a different pack and not this one.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Sour Diesel. The East Coast benchmark for aggressive chemical fuel. It traces back to most likely Chemdog 91 crossed to a Super Skunk in 1990s New York.
• Father: Loompa's Headband. The Loompa Farms selection, also called Underdawg OG. Given as OG Kush x Sour Diesel, roughly sixty-forty indica.
• Why these two. They are not variations on the same idea. They pull in different directions, and that spread is what makes a pack worth hunting through rather than just growing.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Two profiles that stay distinguishable rather than collapsing into one.

• The Aroma. Aggressively chemical and pungent with greasy resin from the Sour Diesel side, against rich earth, pine and citrus over a trace of fuel, with a spiced lemony diesel running through it from the Loompa's Headband side.
• The Taste. Solvent and sour, greasy up front, turning to lemon-diesel opening onto herbal kush and earth, spiced at the close through the exhale.

What each side brings

• Timing. Sour Diesel runs ten to eleven weeks, with faster plants nearer sixty-seven days, and that is the half of this cross you can actually plan around.
• Two noses, one pack. Sour Diesel contributes aggressively chemical and pungent with greasy resin. Loompa's Headband contributes rich earth with pine and citrus over a hint of fuel, and a spicy lemony diesel note across all of it. Which dominates is the main thing that varies.
• Build. On the Sour Diesel side: tall and lanky with wide internodal spacing, heavy early stretch, rated moderately challenging. On the Loompa's Headband side: indica-leaning, at the more manageable end of the OG family. Select early rather than trying to train your way out of it.
• They pull differently. Growers put Sour Diesel at head-forward and energetic and Loompa's Headband at focused; real indica weight. Which end a plant lands on is the main variable.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Sour Diesel is tall and lanky with wide internodal spacing, heavy early stretch, rated moderately challenging. Loompa's Headband is one of the better-behaved OGs - it leans indica and does not run away from a normal tent.
• Vegetative Phase and Stretch. Shape the plant before the flip. Correcting a frame in week six is harder work than setting it in week two.
• Flowering Time. Sour Diesel runs ten to eleven weeks, with faster plants nearer sixty-seven days. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Sour Diesel as head-forward and energetic.
• The Body. Loompa's Headband is reported as focused; real indica weight, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

7 feminized seeds per pack. Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. Their library is clones first and crosses second, which is why the names on their packs read like a list of plants rather than a list of products. Original Humboldt CSI stock.
