New York CityP

New York City by Pyramid Seeds is a particularly aromatic cannabis strain whose unmistakable character is defined above all by its exceptionally intense fruit profile. At the heart of it is a distinctive aroma of ripe red grapefruit, which gives the strain an exotic and remarkably fresh character. It is precisely this unusual citrus profile that makes New York City one of the most distinctive genetics in the Pyramid Seeds range.

When grown, New York City develops a vigorous, strong and comparatively uncomplicated plant structure. The strain is easy to manage and suitable for different growing environments. This makes it interesting for both experienced growers and those with less experience who are looking for an aromatically unusual genetic without particularly complicated requirements.

One special characteristic becomes apparent during the development of the plants: the intense grapefruit and citrus aroma can become extremely pronounced and increase progressively during flowering. Pyramid Seeds describes the scent as so powerful that New York City can remain clearly noticeable even alongside other strains in an indoor setup. For growers who value a pronounced terpene profile, this is one of the strain's most interesting characteristics.

Aromatically, New York City is all about exotic citrus fruits. Ripe red grapefruit combines with fresh, slightly tart citrus notes and a subtle fruity sweetness. This creates an intense profile between sweet, fresh and tangy, with grapefruit clearly taking centre stage. New York City therefore stands apart from classic earthy or modern Candy-influenced strains and offers a distinctive and exceptionally intense grapefruit and citrus aroma.
