New Blue Diesel
Also known as: NBD
New Blue Diesel Strain Overview
New Blue Diesel is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing two well-established parent strains: Blueberry and NYC Diesel. This combination brings together the relaxing, fruity characteristics of Blueberry with the energetic, cerebral effects of NYC Diesel. The strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create a balanced hybrid that maintained the diesel fuel aroma while introducing more complex flavor notes and a more manageable growth profile than some pure sativa diesel varieties. The exact origin of New Blue Diesel is somewhat uncertain, with multiple breeders claiming development, though it has become established in the cannabis community through consistent cultivation and distribution.
Visually, New Blue Diesel plants produce medium to large buds with a dense structure typical of indica-dominant hybrids. The flowers display a striking color palette ranging from deep forest green to purple hues, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, indicating high cannabinoid production. The strain's aroma profile is complex, combining the sweet berry notes inherited from Blueberry with the pungent diesel fuel scent characteristic of its NYC Diesel lineage, creating a distinctive sensory experience.
New Blue Diesel is noted for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to physical relaxation. This makes it popular among users seeking functional daytime relief without excessive sedation. The strain has gained particular popularity in North American markets, especially in regions where diesel varieties are appreciated. While not as historically significant as its parent strains, New Blue Diesel represents a successful modern hybridization that has found a stable place in contemporary cannabis culture.

New Blue Diesel Strain Growing Information
New Blue Diesel is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be regulated. Plants tend to remain medium in height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like topping and low-stress training. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in dense buds and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding during flowering.
