Lemongrass

Lemongrass (also known as Lemon Grass) is not just one, but several strains that happen to share the same name and a deliciously lemony appeal. With multiple origin stories floating around, here's a quick history lesson before you light up. And for the record, don't confuse Lemongrass with Lemon Gas, as it's a whole different story.

Origin #1: Lemongrass by Cookies Genetics

From the infamous breeding program fueling the Cookies Family comes the first iteration of Lemongrass. This strain falls under their Lemonnade Seeds series and is a cross of the legendary Gary Payton and Medellin. On the inhale, you can expect big hits of diesel and that juicy lemon appeal, with layers of more complex, earthy notes. Those who have dabbled with this version of Lemongrass report it's a well-balanced hybrid that's gently relaxing, but also dialed up enough for social situations.

Origin #2: Lemongrass by Humboldt Seed Company

A second Lemongrass is in circulation, and it's a surprisingly energetic indica-dominant hybrid from Humboldt Seed Company. This version, sold as Lemongrass #437, is a cross of a 3x backcrossed Lemon Kush with Humboldt's own cut of Gelato. It's juicy and lemony, and people report uplifting, creative, and energetic effects.

Origin #3: Lemon Grass by The Bank Genetics

A final contender in the lineup goes by Lemon Grass, this time bred by The Bank Genetics. In this case, it's a sativa-leaning cross created from Lemon G-13 with S.A.G.E. Again, this is a lemony strain, but it stands out with its high THC, excellent resin production, and massive buds. So far, reports about its effects are few and far between.
