Sour Tangie
Sour Tangie
Also known as: Sunva
Overview
Sour Tangie is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain created by DNA Genetics through crossing East Coast Sour Diesel and Tangie strains. The strain features 80% sativa and 20% indica genetics, making it a popular choice for daytime consumption. Since its release in the early 2010s, Sour Tangie has gained recognition throughout California and other legal markets for its bold aromatic character and striking bud structure. The strain has two different phenotypes that express either Sour Diesel or Tangie bud structures and effects.
Visually, Sour Tangie buds have medium-sized grape-shaped dark olive green nugs with bright surprisingly pink undertones, rich purple hairs, and a frosty layer of lavender hued fine crystal trichomes. The buds are typically large and fluffy, showcasing shades of light to forest green with bright orange pistils standing out, and in some phenotypes, subtle pink or purple hues may appear. The buds are coated in milky-white trichomes that reflect light, contributing to a visually striking appearance. Sour Tangie brings together the classic Sour Diesel aroma with Tangie's creative, elevating buzz and strong citrus overtones. Opening a pack of the flower greets users with orange and lemon aromas with earthy spice and tangy diesel notes.

Growing Information
Sour Tangie grows quickly in its vegetative cycle and finishes flowering in 9 to 10 weeks indoors. Plants produce high yields of 500-600g/m². The plant can reach impressive heights of up to 10 feet, developing long, thick branches that will need support towards the end of the flowering stage to prevent them from breaking under the weight of its dense buds. Due to their sativa genetics, these plants can grow quite tall and may require indoor gardeners to keep their height manageable with occasional pruning. The strain can be grown indoors or out, although outdoor growth depends on a hot and semi-humid climate with consistent daytime sunlight. DNA Genetics offers both regular and feminized Sour Tangie seeds, reporting fast vegetation time and tall growth from the strain. Growers should expect substantial height gain well into the fourth week of the strain's 63-70-day flowering phase.
