How to grow Blue Diesel Auto
Taste
Seb's take
Blue Diesel Auto carries forward the original medical-minded cross of Blueberry and New York City Diesel, now with Ruderalis added for a self-flowering habit. Sweet diesel and blueberry sit together on the nose, and the effect is gentle and easy-going rather than overwhelming. Forgiving of enthusiasm, and of anxious beginnings besides.
Where it comes from
Blue Diesel Auto is Growers Choice's autoflowering line, carrying forward the original cross of Blueberry and New York City Diesel with a ruderalis addition for the self-flowering habit. Both parent lines, the record says, lend a gentle relaxation, the Diesel the pungent fuel, the Blueberry the sweetness. A faithful auto version of a well-liked classic.
Nose & flavour
Sweet diesel and blueberry sit together on the nose, the fuel of one parent against the fruit of the other, in easy company. A recognisable pairing, and a moreish one, with neither side crowding out the other.
The high
The effect is gentle and easy-going, a strong but unhurried buzz across body and mind rather than anything overwhelming. Forgiving company, and a sound place to begin for a grower and smoker still finding their bearings.
Growing it
Flowering runs a longer 70 to 77 days, standing 100 to 130cm at 14 to 16 per cent THC. The yield is the honest note, the record putting it at 40 to 50 g/m², so this is a plant grown for the character of the smoke rather than the weight of it. Easy to start with, and easy to like.
