• It has an aftertaste of lemon lime, tangerine and exotic fruits.
• This is a very sticky strain due to the resin on the buds. The flowers can be quite dense, with some leaves sticking out and many trichomes over the buds, which is what makes this strain so potent.

Effects & Usage

• Great for a smoke with friends  
• Soft and tolerable
• Expect an uplifting but relaxing all over body high with this one.
• Mental and fun
• A lot of users experience dry mouth and eyes with this strain, which can be helped by drinking plenty of water. As this is a particularly potent strain, making sure you eat before smoking is a good idea too. Taking too much of this strain may lead to an increase in paranoia, so always start small.

Growing

• NBA Diesel typically reaches tall heights, and it needs plenty of room, especially indoors. 
• The leaves stretch out far and upwards with a thick stalk and heavy yielding crops. 
• Fat, dense packed colas. 
• Indoor crops tend to grow quite upwards, so if you don’t apply pruning to control it and try to make it develop more horizontally, you’ll have space problems. 
• Outdoor: It is best to place it in a definitive pot of at least 15,8 US gal (60 liters), because you will need it. It very easily grows to 9,8 ft tall! 

Indoors or Outdoors?

• NBA Diesel will flourish outdoors in a warm and dry climate, and will also grow quickly indoors, making the Screen of Green (ScrOG)  technique particularly helpful, to increase yield. This strain does particularly well with a hydroponic system, and you will see fast growth. By using the ScrOG method, you can allow all of the plant to receive light, so the entire plant can thrive.

Flowering, Yield & Harvest

• Flowering time takes around 10 to 11 weeks, and you can expect to see around up to 600 grams per plant indoors, and 1100 grams per/ meter squared outdoors if it is in the right growing hands. 
• Outdoor crops are ready to harvest in the first week of October. 
• Check out our Aussie grow calendar for when to harvest outdoors in Australia.

Feeding

• All Cannabis strains, require a full spectrum nutrient complete with the macro nutrients such as Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium and the secondary nutrients and micronutrients like, calcium, Sulphur, hydrogen, magnesium, manganese, carbon, iron, zinc etc.
• This strain loves its food! Make sure it has all the nutrients it needs, particularly in the flowering stage, to help the buds become dense. Using soil is slightly more forgiving if you overdo it with the nutrients. If you are using a good quality soil, it will have a lot of nutrients in there already, so there is no need to add any during the seedling stage.
• During the vegetative phase you will need to give your plant twice as much nitrogen as phosphorus, and three times more nitrogen than potassium. The nutrient ratios to look for on the bottle will be either 6-3-2 or 18-9-6. You should also add in some Sulphur, magnesium, and calcium.  
• During the flowering stage, change the ratio so you are using up to three times more phosphorus than nitrogen and potassium. Also continue to add in secondary nutrients such as iron, copper, and manganese.  Make sure to use orgnanic Bud Burst during flowering all the way as this will ensure a smooth finish with no chemical taste.   Amazing stuff!
• For organic grows, we recommend Aptus Baseboost organic nutrient   with coco/perlite 70/30 ratio.   This stuff is highly concentrated so a little goes a long way making it great value.     Simply add the pellets to the coco as per the instructions and it will completely transform any inert growing medium into a powerful full spectrum grow media..   

Growing Tips

• Towards the end of the flowering stage (approx 2-3 weeks to harvest) , remove the large fan leaves.   This will help bring more light to the lower sections of the plant.
• When harvesting, feel free to harvest in stages with the top first (most mature) then the bottom sections 1 week later.
• Use rounded scissors that will trim nicely around the buds- you may need two pairs of scissors as this strain is very sticky. To rub off the resin from scissors, you will need to use rubbing alcohol, or white vinegar should do the trick
