About Lemon Kush

Female Seeds crossed Lemon Thai with Hindu Kush to build this indica-leaning hybrid at 60/40, and while the name suggests an obvious citrus angle, the documented flavor profile for this particular version is actually blank, leaving the terpene data to do the talking instead: myrcene and linalool lead, with limonene and caryophyllene also present in a genuinely long terpene list. The plant takes eight to nine weeks to flower, a moderate-difficulty grow reaching 80-120cm indoors and returning 400-500 g/m2. THC tests around 17 percent, a comfortable mid-range dose. Lemon Thai's sativa heritage and Hindu Kush's landrace indica genetics make for a classic old-school pairing, and the limonene presence in the terpene profile at least hints at where the strain's name likely came from.
