About Original Diesel
Original Diesel comes from Chemdawg crossed with a Northern Lights 5 and DNL line, a lineage with murky origins: its breeder is listed only as unknown or legendary, fitting for a strain this old-school. Genetically it sits at 40 percent indica and 60 percent sativa. It's a moderate grow, flowering over 10 to 11 weeks, reaching 100-150cm indoors for 450-550 g/m², or growing taller outdoors to 150-200cm for 500-700 grams per plant. THC ranges from 19 to 20 percent. The terpene sheet is dense, led by caryophyllene, myrcene, limonene, and pinene, with humulene, linalool, bisabolol, camphene, terpinolene, and eucalyptol all present in smaller amounts, a genuinely layered fuel-and-spice signature even without formal flavor notes on record. No effects or medical uses have been documented for this particular cut.
