A well-balanced hybrid (50% Sativa / 50% Indica) Sour Tsunami is a child strain from a crossing of Sour Diesel and NYC Diesel. Its CBD/THC ratio shows a slight CBD predominance, with THC content varying from 9 to 11.25% and CBD content of 11.22-11.86%. It gives a relaxing high that has exceptional potential for medical use. It’s pretty tasty and a good thing to try as a first-timer getting into weed culture since it’s a non-psychoactive bud variety.

Incredible strain, truly calming and yet has a touch of the positives of sativa without the racing mind and negatives that it can bring. Might be my favorite medicinal strain ever, along with ACDC. A must try

a decent amount of THC allowing you to get high while still getting relief from pain, inflammation, and anxiety. Initially the strain is very cerebral but it does provoke anxiety because of it CBD content. It is thus an excellent strain for people sensitive to sativa dominant strains.

Sour Tsunami is an anxiety killer. Any time I vape this strain my mind just empties out, I feel calm and relaxed with no stress or anxiety. It is the best strain for meditation, and you can solve things without feeling the overwhelming high effects of THC in the strain. It has a strong body high and a weak head high. I absolutely Sour Tsunami.

My best strain so far. A couple hits on a batty and all my anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem is gone without ripping me out. It leaves me feeling happy, mellow and full of levity. This is my go-to strain to calm my moods when I want to study and retain what I read. It is also a great strain to boost energy when you want to do some outdoor activities.
