Potency

Newbie Skilled

Created by Dr. GreenThumb, East Coast Sour Diesel appropriates the qualities of its very popular namesake and amplifies them to create a strain that is well known for its potency. An 80/20 Sativa-dominant hybrid, East Coast Sour Diesel is at once reported to be both energizing and sleep-inducing, suggesting that the user's physiology and history with cannabis will contribute significantly to the experience they have with this marijuana strain.

East Coast Sour Diesel weed has an average THC level of 20% and is associated with side effects ranging from dry eyes to paranoia – again depending both on experience and physiology. Its CBD levels are relatively mild, coming in at 0.44%.

This strain does take flavor notes from its name, with many users reporting a terpene flavor profile that is chemically in nature, with notes of diesel present. However, others tend to be more aware of the "sour" component of the strain, noting citrusy notes having their say as well.

Therapeutic Use

East Coast Sour Diesel has never been established as a cure for any health ailment. However, it has been used to good effect in pursuit of alleviating a range of symptoms that include but are not limited to improving moods and boosting appetite and energy levels.

However, East Coast Sour Diesel is known for its potency and has, therefore, inspired negative side effects in inexperienced users, including stress, paranoia, and anxiety. Discretion is advised.
