How to grow Auto Black Diesel
Seb's take
New York City Diesel's autoflowering remake, shorter and more discreet outdoors than her regular counterpart but no less generous — 450 to 550g/m² is a fine return for a plant that fits in a corner. Tropical fruit, lemon and grapefruit on the nose; the high is euphoric, energetic and creative.
Growing Auto Black Diesel: what to expect
She's an auto — on her own clock from the day she sprouts. No switching lights, no waiting on seasons, and no pausing while you sort problems either; read how autos differ before day one.
A 11-week flowering run — the scenic route. Worth it, generally, but plan your season around her rather than the other way about. See the flowering stage.
Expect roughly 100 cm of plant. Manageable, though she'll appreciate a little training if your headroom is tight.
Expect 450 – 550 g/m² — a working grower's yield, reliable rather than theatrical. The harvest guide will see it in safely.
The listed THC is 17% — the gentler end of the scale, stated plainly. Harvest timing moves the needle more than most growers realise.
Citrus leads the nose — sharp, clean, and inclined to announce itself.
Creative leads the effect chart — one for the sketchbook rather than the sofa.
