About New York City Diesel
New York City Diesel crosses a Mexican Sativa with Afghani genetics to land as a 70% sativa hybrid, testing between 13.75% and 16.4% THC. It is a patient plant to grow, needing ten to eleven weeks in flower, longer than most modern hybrids, a trait it likely inherited from its sativa-heavy lineage. Indoor plants reach 120-150cm and return 400-500 grams per square meter once harvest arrives. What stands out most is the terpene list: limonene, caryophyllene, caryophyllene oxide, and myrcene lead a lineup that also includes pinene, humulene, linalool, terpinolene, geraniol, bisabolol, and ocimene, one of the broader profiles among sativa-leaning crosses. For growers willing to wait out the long flower, the payoff is a genuinely complex aromatic result.
