Lemon Skunk is an award-winning Sativa hybrid, known for its lemon flavor and a THC count as high as 22%. It made the High Times list of top 10 strains in 2009.The aroma is Skunky and sweet while the flavor is reminiscent of sweet lemons and other citrus fruit.

The sativa genes offer effective treatment for depression, nausea, chronic pain, and everyday stresses.
CBD levels are a bit higher than average in this strain, roughly 0.5% in some tests, but not high enough to recommend it as treatment for conditions that respond to CBD, such as epilepsy. Dry mouth and watery eyes are the only widely reported negative effects of Lemon Skunk, though paranoia, anxiety, and dizziness are also possible. Found up and down the West Coast, this strain is also popular in Colorado. It occasionally circulates on the black market, as well.
Lemon Skunk performs well when used for daytime pain relief, especially in the case of chronic migraines, and is most often prescribed for this purpose. Those suffering from stress, anxiety, and depression favor this strain for its mood elevating properties. The strain is also used for the relief of nausea and eating disorders.
Lemon Skunk is designed by DNA Genetics, who chose two different strains of skunk with a strong flavor and scent of lemons as its parents. The mother is a skunk that originated from Vegas, while the father came from Holland. The strain grows easily and is suitable to growers with any experience level. It thrives both indoors and out. Needing 55 to 65 days to finish, the strain can reportedly produce up to 600 grams per square meter.

Wow, this is a sweet strain. Honestly I would give it AAAA for smell, look, taste, and burn … though it’s not super potent and thus maybe why BLG gives it AAA. It smells like a bag of ripe berries and earth… bits of blue/light purple running through it… VERY mellow, good feeling buzz. Nice for sitting outside in the sun with a book. Perfect for anxiety sufferers, though in higher doses can cause a little raciness.
Tastes delicious, burns PERFECTLY, extremely smooth. Really impressed with blg’s product, price, and customer service. Thank you!
