Density varies with the grower and conditions — treat this as a tendency, not a guarantee.
The record above is the cultivar. Each grower's jar is its own plant — here is how their lots measure, from lab panels New York menus print.
NY Sour is typically described with aromas of diesel, citrus, skunky and earthy and flavours of diesel, citrus, gassy and herbal. Aroma and flavour vary with grower, batch and freshness.
NY Sour is commonly associated with effects such as energetic, euphoric, uplifted and focused. Effects are subjective and vary with the dose, the way cannabis is taken and the individual — this is sensory guidance, not a guarantee.
NY Sour is classified as sativa in the SŌMA catalog. These labels are a loose shorthand rather than a precise prediction of effect; studies find they do not reliably track a plant's genetics or chemistry.
By sensory profile, the closest strains in the SŌMA catalog include Delphi Diesel, OG Chem Haze and Orange Diesel. SŌMA matches on aroma, flavour and effect rather than name alone.
