How to grow New York 47
Taste
Seb's take
NYC Diesel and AK-47 combine for a balanced, mostly sativa cross that grows vigorously enough to need watching indoors. Citrus, grapefruit and a chemical edge show through the resin-heavy buds. The effect starts euphoric and clear-headed, good for reading or walking, before settling into something more physical the longer the session runs.
Where it comes from
NYC Diesel and AK-47 combine — a New York fuel note married to one of the most decorated names in the catalogue. World of Seeds keep the split balanced but tilt it toward the sativa, and the vigour of both parents shows in the long lateral branches and the eagerness to climb. A cosmopolitan cross, and one that grows with more enthusiasm than an indoor tent always has room for.
Nose & flavour
Citrus and grapefruit lead, bright and a little sharp, with a chemical touch running underneath — the diesel heritage making itself known. There is a note of stale fruit in there too, which sounds less appealing than it smells; the whole thing gains penetration as the flowers are broken open. A pungent, fruity aroma that rewards a close nose.
The high
It opens euphoric and clear-headed — good company, the record suggests, for reading or a walk. Given time, or a heavier hand, it shifts toward the physical and settles into something more relaxing. A two-act sort of high, sativa-bright at the curtain and easing bodyward by the end. At 20% THC there is weight enough to carry both halves.
Growing it
Vigorous, and the record is blunt that height wants watching indoors — those long lateral branches take to a SCROG screen readily, which is the sensible way to keep her honest under a ceiling. Flowering runs 60 to 70 days, with the medium-density buds finishing under a coat of large trichomes. Yields land at a solid 500 g/m². Train her early, spread the laterals, and the space is repaid in full.
