Description

Sativa-dominant auto strain with good levels of THC and a tasty terpene profile.

NYC Sour D Auto is part of RQS's Tyson 2.0 range produced in conjunction with the legendary Mike Tyson.

Are you ready to enjoy one of Mike Tyson's favourite strains? The legendary boxer helped to design this cultivar, and fell in love with it for its energetic high, soothing properties, and increasingly rare gassy flavours and aromas. Learn everything you need to know about this strain to see if it deserves a place in your corner.

This light-footed lady grows to only 80cm indoors when trained appropriately, but rewards growers with up to 500g/m² in as little as 12 weeks after shoots emerge from the soil. Outdoors, she peaks at 150cm and produces up to 180g/plant.

NYC Sour D Auto Feminised Seeds

Why did a feminised seed produce seeds? Not super salty about it the plant looked wonderfull. But I don't think I should be getting seeds growing on a femal plant
