NYC Diesel

Five Cannabis Cup wins in the early 2000s are credited to NYC Diesel, a hybrid reported to descend from Afghani and Mexican genetics. Our record lists a single THC reading of 25.76%, so treat the potency as one data point rather than an average. Terpene percentages are modest: beta-myrcene at 0.32%, beta-caryophyllene at 0.25% and alpha-pinene at 0.13%.

Sweet is the only flavor tag, but outside reviewers describe a sharp grapefruit and fuel smell, with lime also mentioned, which is the quality that earned its reputation. Reported effects are energetic and creative, with outside reviewers adding talkative and uplifted, so it tends to be a daytime or social choice. Dry eyes, dizziness, nervousness and dry mouth are the downsides on file.

Our parents field also lists Northern Lights, Sour Diesel and Chemdawg, so lineage depends on the source and the landrace account is the one most often repeated. Anyone sensitive to jittery energy should keep the first dose small.
