How to grow Lemon Orange
Taste
Seb's take
Super Lemon Haze crossed with Clementine, and the citrus lineage shows plainly on the nose — orange, lemon and earth in a bright, sativa-leaning profile. At 29.5% THC this is a sipping strain, not a session one, though the high stays clear, uplifting and energised rather than heavy. Placed second at the Homegrown Cup 2021.
Where it comes from
Green House crossed Super Lemon Haze with Clementine, and there is no mystery about where the citrus comes from — both parents wear it plainly. The result is a 70% sativa hybrid built for clarity and momentum rather than weight, the two lemon-and-orange lines reinforcing one another rather than competing. It took second place at the Homegrown Cup 2021, a nod, the record notes, to its terpene expression.
Nose & flavour
Orange leads, with lemon close behind and an earthy base beneath the pair — a bright, citrus-forward nose that leans towards the peel rather than the flesh. The Clementine parentage earns its billing. Vivid and expressive without turning harsh, which for something this loud is worth remarking on.
The high
Uplifting, euphoric and energetic, clear-headed throughout — at 29.5% THC this is a sipping strain, not a session one, yet the character stays functional rather than flattening. The record describes it as balanced despite the strength, avoiding harsh edges while keeping the experience vivid. Approach the potency with respect and it stays good company for the daytime.
Growing it
Flowering runs 63 to 70 days, and she grows tall — roughly 170 to 200cm — so give her the headroom and plan the space before she takes it. Yields come in around 488 g/m², with THC at a considerable 29.5% and CBD at 0.2%. A 30% indica, 70% sativa split, which reads in the stretch as much as the effect. Watch the height through the back of veg and into early flower, and she will reward the room you gave her.
