Colombian D
Also known as: Colombian Diesel, Colombian Gold D
Colombian D Strain Overview
Colombian D is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that traces its origins to the high-altitude regions of Colombia, specifically the Santa Marta mountain range. The strain represents a modern interpretation of classic Colombian landrace genetics, which were prized by cannabis connoisseurs during the 1960s and 1970s for their clear-headed, energetic effects. Breeders have worked to preserve the distinctive characteristics of these traditional genetics while enhancing potency and consistency through selective breeding practices. The strain's name references both its geographic origin and its diesel-like aroma profile, which has become a signature characteristic.
Visually, Colombian D typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a conical, elongated structure characteristic of sativa varieties. The flowers display a vibrant green color with occasional orange or rust-colored pistils weaving through the calyxes. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, indicating the strain's respectable THC content. The leaves tend to be slender and light green, with some phenotypes showing subtle purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during the flowering phase.
Notable features of Colombian D include its distinctive aroma profile that combines fuel-like diesel notes with earthy, citrus undertones. The strain is known for producing effects that are predominantly cerebral and uplifting, making it popular among users seeking daytime relief without excessive sedation. Colombian D has gained recognition among sativa enthusiasts for preserving the classic Colombian genetic profile while offering improved consistency and potency compared to traditional landrace varieties. The strain's effects typically develop gradually, with an initial cerebral rush that transitions into a sustained, clear-headed euphoria.

Colombian D Strain Growing Information
Colombian D is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically have a flowering time of 10-12 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late October to early November in northern hemisphere climates. The strain can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though it thrives in warm, sunny environments with low humidity. Indoor plants usually reach heights of 120-180 cm, while outdoor plants can grow significantly taller, sometimes exceeding 200 cm. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter and outdoor growers achieving 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Special considerations include providing adequate support for the tall, lanky sativa structure and maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in the dense buds. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration.
