echnically speaking, spring doesn t start until March 20. In recent days, though, the combination of warming temperatures and sunshine lasting ever later into the evening has brought a decidedly springlike feel to the Inland Northwest. It s finally time to get out and enjoy our region s natural beauty without needing to bundle up against frigid arctic air. Here are three strains to help you shake off the winter blues as you get back to your favorite outdoor activities.
SOUR DIESEL
One of the better-known strains around, Sour Diesel is a classic sativa. There are nearly 8,000 user reviews of the strain on Leafly, and based on those it lands firmly on the energizing side of their calming-energizing spectrum. Clocking in at around 18 percent THC, Sour Diesel packs enough punch to get the job done but isn t oppressively intoxicating, making it perfect for keeping your wits about you on a hike in the woods or a simple stroll through the park.
