They showcase deep forest green hues, often accented with lime and purple, and are interwoven with bright orange pistils. The plant's morphology includes sturdy stems capable of supporting heavy colas, indicating resilience in various growing conditions.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma is dominated by a sharp, invigorating diesel fuel scent, characteristic of its name. This is complemented by underlying spicy and citrus notes. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, with a bold diesel taste on the inhale that evolves into a complex blend of spicy, citrus, and subtly sweet undertones on the exhale. The scent intensifies during flowering, with terpenes like caryophyllene contributing a peppery kick and limonene adding citrus notes.
