Summary / Suitability
Sour Roadkill represents a refined meeting of sour and musky lines: vigorous, resinous, and aromatic, offering growers a dependable, high-terpene hybrid of classic flavors and selected for resistancy. The result is a resin-heavy hybrid with strong aroma intensity, compact form, and early flower development. Designed for vigor and balanced growth, it performs equally well in organic indoor systems and full-sun outdoor cultivation. Growers can expect uniform architecture, fast resin onset, and a terpene profile that blends sour citrus with deep earthy tones.
Genetic Background
This F₁ hybrid unites two well-established lines: Sour Dubb—a vigorous, resinous hybrid from the Sour Diesel × Sour Bubble family—and Roadkill Skunk, a later-generation skunk derivative from Riot Seeds selected for its robust frame and old-style funk. While the original “roadkill” expressions from the 1970s are largely lost, this modern line retains a distinct musky-pungent character with improved structure and finish time. The pairing brings together Sour Dubb’s citrus-fuel aroma and resin production with Roadkill Skunk’s dense bud formation and stability.
Plant Characteristics
Sour Roadkill develops a medium-tall frame with compact internodes and a strong central cola supported by firm lateral branches. Leaf formations vary between 3-, 5-, and 7-blade sets, with a healthy mid-green tone and moderate serration.
Primary phenotypes observed during selection include:
• Tall Forms: 5-leaf plants with vigorous apical growth and well-balanced branching.
• Short Bushy Forms: Broader leaves, close node spacing, and tight floral stacking.
All expressions show early trichome development, consistent vigor, and high resin concentration. Plants respond positively to training and pruning, maintaining sturdy form and reliable bud density.
Flower & Aroma Profile
Flowers form quickly and evenly, developing into dense clusters with minimal internodal gaps. Early aromas reveal bright lemon zest and diesel over a warm base of earth, pine, and mild musk. As flowering progresses, the scent deepens into a more fermented, sour character with faint skunky undertones—strong but balanced rather than overpowering.
Cured buds are resin-rich, lime to olive green with orange pistils and a sticky texture. The flavor carries sour-citrus brightness on the inhale and a lingering earthy finish, true to both parent lines.
Growing Tips (Indoor & Outdoor)
Indoor: Performs best with strong light and good airflow. Limited stretch and short internodes make it ideal for SCROG or multi-top training. Maintain moderate feeding to enhance terpene clarity. Finishes in 9–10 weeks with dense, resin-coated flowers.
Outdoor / Greenhouse: Excels in full sun and organic living soil. Plants tolerate heat and moderate humidity well, with minimal pest pressure observed. Prune lower growth early to improve airflow and maximize yield. Fast finish and tight structure make it well-suited to mid-elevation tropical or subtropical conditions.
Effects & Potency
Sour Roadkill delivers a balanced hybrid experience: a bright, energetic onset followed by steady relaxation. The Sour Dubb influence provides focus and creative uplift, while Roadkill Skunk contributes a calming physical finish. Potency averages between 20–24% THC, producing a long-lasting, functional high that remains clear and centered.
