Best Lemon Cannabis Strains

What gives Lemon weed strains their unique flavor? There are two things. First, there’s the terpene profile. The flavor of any strain heavily depends on the concentrations of different terpenes found in Cannabis. Lemon weed strains have high amounts of limonene, a terpene that’s plentiful in the rind of citrus fruits such as lemon and orange.

Second, there’s genetics. You can tell lemon weed strains apart from other types of Cannabis because most, if not all, of them have strong sativa genes. It’s similar to how you can gauge how a marijuana plant grows simply by knowing whether it’s a sativa, hybrid, or indica strain. 

Lastly, genetics also help breeders to better understand how to cross good qualities together to produce new and improved strains.

What makes lemon weed strains so unique?

Their flavor. When it comes to lemon weed strains’ most striking feature, citrus weed strains are renowned for their strong tanginess or refreshing taste of citrus fruits. However, what separates them from the rest is that the flavors perfectly complement the buds’ effects.

What are the best citrus strains?

The best lemon Cannabis strains generally have distinct flavors and similar effects. They don’t necessarily have lemon as their main flavor; the lemon flavor can complement the taste or aroma that settles in your tastebuds as the effect of the buds rolls in.

What are the qualities of most citrus strains?

The most striking quality that the best lemon weed strains have is their flavor. Citrus fruits’ zesty taste and fragrance are always present, even when paired against other strong flavors like Lemon Sour Diesel’s case with its fuel-like taste and aroma.

Speaking of pairing, the sharp and refreshing flavors that citrus strains have perfectly complement their mood-boosting and energizing effects. For this combination, some of the best lemon Cannabis strains are also known to be great morning strains. Now let's share what, in our opinion, are the four citrus weed strains you should be growing.

Super Lemon Haze is renowned worldwide for being one of the best lemon strains because of its award-winning qualities. With one toke of its buds, you’ll feel a cerebral high that will elevate your mood and energize your mind. The refreshing flavors of lemon only complement the effects you get with each smoke.

If you’re looking for a balanced high, look no further than in Orange Bud. This classic 50/50 hybrid strain is unlike most lemon strains you’ve tried before since it combines the energizing buzz of a sativa strain with the soothing effects of an indica.

Although it’s orange, this strain will loosen you up and keep you focused, so it deserves a spot as one of the best lemon strains.

Just like Lemon OG, Wedding Cake is an exception when it comes to lemon strains. This is because, unlike most, it is an indica-dominant strain. And it shows with its strong, relaxing body high that would put you to sleep if not for the slight boost to your mood.

As its name implies, the taste you get from this strain is mostly sweet, but it does carry a tangy flavor to it that’s similar to the rind of a lemon.
