Lilac Diesel
Also known as: Lilac Diesel #22
Overview
Lilac Diesel is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created by Colorado's Ethos Genetics through an ambitious breeding project combining four distinct parent strains. This complex cross involves (Silver Lemon Haze x Forbidden Fruit) with (NYC Cherry Pie x Citral Glue), resulting in a sophisticated strain with diverse genetic influences. The strain is renowned for its striking appearance, featuring small and super dense spade-shaped buds with minty green coloration, beautiful lilac undertones, dark amber hairs, and a coating of lilac-tinted sparkling white crystal trichomes. The strain's name pays tribute to both its gorgeous visual presentation and distinctive pungent flavor profile. Users report that Lilac Diesel offers the best of both indica and sativa worlds, providing creative focus and energizing effects that transition into relaxing physical sensations, making it suitable for both daytime productivity and evening relaxation.

Growing Information
Lilac Diesel is considered moderately easy to grow and suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. The strain has a relatively short flowering time of 45-63 days (6-9 weeks), which is considered fast in the cannabis world. Indoor yields are typically modest at around 0.5-1 oz/ft² or approximately 5 oz per plant, while outdoor yields remain similar at around 5 oz per plant. The plant exhibits strong and aggressive growth with medium-length internodes and heavy lateral branching, making it suitable for various training techniques like topping and LST. It's somewhat tolerant of temperature fluctuations and requires only moderate light and watering. The strain produces large, spongy but solid flowers with a high bract-to-leaf ratio, making it easy to trim. For best results, growers should maintain moderate temperatures, steady humidity levels, and ensure adequate ventilation and airflow.
