NYSD / NEW YORK SOUR DIESEL
[ THE LAUGHING G.O.A.T. LEGACY STRAIN ]
New York Sour Diesel strain leans to the sativa side and provides strong cerebral effects that ease into a deep, full-body relaxation over time. A pungent lime and grapefruit aroma is the mark of a high quality batch, like those that won this strain five Cannabis Cup trophies in the early 2000s. NYC Diesel’s happy, talkative qualities make this hybrid a good choice for social activities and many anxiety-prone consumers praise it for its paranoia-free effects.

More about this strain: NYC Diesel
NYC Diesel, also called New York Diesel and Soma Sour Diesel, is a creation of Amsterdam-based seed bank Soma Seeds, first bred by the geneticist Soma in 1997. After the New York City terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, Soma decided to name the strain NYC Diesel as an homage to his childhood home. This sativa-leaning strain is a cross of Mexican Sativa and Afghani landrace.
Soma also reports that this strain is distinguished by a strong smell and taste of ripe, red grapefruit, and tends to produce soothing effects. NYC Diesel won second place in the Sativa category at the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2001, 2003, and 2004.
