NYC Diesel is one of the most famous cannabis strains of its generation, being a 9 times winner of the Cannabis Cup. This 60% Sativa is only packed with an average of 20% THC but provides a kick-ass wake and bake high that no cannabis user can resist. NYC was first bred by Soma Sacred Seeds by combining Sour Diesel and Mexican and Afghani Landraces.
NYC is a beautiful flower with attractive buds. Purple, blue, and yellow patches decorate the flower as if a designer was hired to do it. It produces olive-green flowers covered by a thick coat of vibrant orange sticky trichomes.
NYC Diesel does well indoors and outdoors, but regulating conditions outdoors is challenging. Therefore, most growers cultivate it indoors. But if you are determined to do it outdoors, consider areas with dry and warm climates, preferably tropical regions. NYC Diesel flowers in about 9-11 weeks, one of the longest flowering times compared to most strains. Though it has a high resistance to pests and diseases, the long wait can put off even experienced growers.
NYC Diesel produces a unique scent of ripe red grapes and citrus that fills the room when you break it open. Its aroma and flavor are not much different. You will still have the same grapey citrus taste with notes of diesel inherited from Sour Diesel. The initial impression slowly changes to a more complex sweet flavor profile of herbs and spices.
As a Sativa-leaning hybrid, NYC Diesel is a good choice for busy days and social events. It offers a peppy cerebral high with a boost of energy you need to boldly face your tasks. The high is also associated with euphoria, a mood boost, and a spark of creativity you need for most activities.
NYC Diesel is an effective appetite stimulant, stress, and pain reliever. It is also an appropriate choice for combating the effects of depression, fatigue, nausea, ADHD, and many other medical conditions.
