In grower catalogs and dispensary menus, Blue Diesel (also circulated as Blue City Diesel, New Blue Diesel, Sour Blue Diesel) is documented as a hybrid cross combining Blueberry and NYC Diesel. In breeding programs, it has served as a parent line for Smarties and Blue Raspberry Snow Cone. It appears in state compliance flower testing across 3 US markets (WA MD MA) between 2014 and 2023. Photoperiod cuts typically finish flowering in 8–9 weeks (~60 days) under indoor or greenhouse lighting.

Aroma and flavor

Jars of Blue Diesel are most often described as showing sharp fuel and diesel, ripe mixed berry, jammy blueberry and gassy, solvent-like fuel. Chemotype data points to earthy, herbal myrcene, bright, citrus-forward limonene and peppery beta-caryophyllene as the primary aromatic drivers, with batch-to-batch variation depending on cultivation and curing.

Reported effects

Consumers commonly report physical relaxation, a lifted, positive outlook and an elevated, euphoric mood, making Blue Diesel a frequent pick for late-afternoon or flexible social and evening use. The most commonly noted downsides are dry mouth and mild grogginess or headache.
