Lemon Tree

Lemon Tree joins Lemon Skunk and Sour Diesel in a citrus-soaked hybrid that became a West Coast favorite long before lemon strains started crowding dispensary menus. Creek Side's cut helped put the name on the map when it took second place for Best U.S. Hybrid at the 2014 High Times Cannabis Cup in Seattle.

Lemon isn't a suggestion here. Fresh peel, sour citrus, and lemon candy come charging through the aroma, with Sour Diesel supplying the fuel, skunk, and earthy funk underneath. The flavor keeps that sweet-and-sour citrus bite alive before diesel and pine start muscling into the finish. Dense, light-green flowers typically carry orange-to-amber stigmas beneath a heavy coat of sticky trichomes.

Those in the know describe a clear-headed, euphoric lift that keeps some momentum behind it while relaxation gradually settles underneath. The early stretch can feel upbeat, focused, and social without turning frantic, while the back half takes some of the edge off without immediately putting the brakes on. Lemon Tree smells like somebody squeezed a lemon over a gas pump, and somehow that's exactly the point.
