What types of plants are in lilac Diesel?
Almost every time I get arrogant enough to think I can infer a strain’s effects from its name, I either get launched out to space or returned back to earth, depending on the strain. However, a Diesel had never let me down until I was lured by a lilac bouquet.
Lilac Diesel is a sedative cross of numerous strains, including Citral Glue, Forbidden Fruit, New York City Diesel, Cherry Pie, and Super Lemon Haze.

Calming yet spicy floral notes of lavender or lilac, if you really want to go there, are layered over sweet, tropical notes of berries and fruit as well as sour, rubbery undertones of gas.
Sweet, earthy, and gassy tones from the strain’s unique aroma jumped around in my nose like bungee cords, confounding but also enticing my senses. Similar results came after smoking Lilac Diesel, which gave me a burst of joyous energy for approximately 30 minutes before sending me permanently to the sofa (not counting the numerous excursions to the fridge that ruined the first two weeks of my late-spring diet).

Flavor: A sweet bowl of tropical fruit and citrus initially piques the taste senses, but is swiftly overpowered by a rubbery, flowery, piney, and earthy surge of Diesel.
Effects: If you know what you’re getting into, lilac diesel can be used for a variety of things. I experienced a brief rush of energy that lasted no more than twenty or thirty minutes, followed by drowsy, scattered laughter and extreme hunger. It wasn’t at all what I expected from a Diesel, but it ended up being a good strain for neck pain, a gastrointestinal issue, and relaxing before bed.
From a home grower: “I purchased my Ethos Genetics seeds from a seed bank, but I believe you can now find clones of it locally, though I’m not always sure about those when it comes to rarer strains, like Lilac.
However, the seeds are worthwhile to squeeze. In addition to the buds being covered in snow, it took me weeks and the opinions of a few acquaintances to identify that fruity, twisted smell. These large, pointed trichomes contributed to the pleasant rosin of this plant. Once it reached that point, it didn’t take much longer to bloom—possibly eight to nine weeks.
Commercial growers’ perspective “Like Chemdog or Cookies, this truly makes me mentally confused. Even some of our budtenders struggled to determine which way it leaned after passing a jar around since there is simply so much going on there, and you can tell by the smell. Although I’d say the output is decent, the resin production is essentially phenomenal. It’s fantastic for [concentrates without solvents] and adds a pleasant twist to the typically strong Diesel flavor.
