A 1:1 Citrus Delight from Sour Lemon OG

 

Bud Basics

Sour Lemon OG is a pungent 70% Sativa-dominant hybrid which epitomizes the soaring highs of any reputable Sativa, combining the renowned genetics of California Sour and Lemon OG. While this strain boasts serious bag appeal for both recreational and medicinal marijuana users alike, she also comes with a fairly high 17% THC content.

 

While such psychoactive influence is perfect for some, there are many who have (until now) been unable to savor the therapeutic wonders that this strain’s overall sense of relaxed euphoria can easily deliver.

 

So what to do? Well, it’s simple really - blend the genetics of a high CBD strain into the mix, creating a new cannabis hybrid in CBD Sour Lemon which claims the coveted 1:1 THC to CBD ratio.

 

Since this newfound cannabinoid balance lowers the THC to a maximum of 8%, CBD Sour Lemon might not be best suited for those recreational tokers hoping for epic highs, but those with low THC tolerance can find in this specimen a mild cerebral high with enough CBD and psychoactivity to induce a truly blissful and stress-removing sedation.

Flavor and Fragrance of CBD Sour Lemon

Both while flowering and enjoying the bountiful bud harvest, you’ll be treated to the most wonderfully delectable citrusy sensations when it comes to CBD Sour Lemon.

 

This CBD-heavy strain, much like her Sour Lemon OG lineage would suggest, delivers all the sweet and sour lemon scents of her parentage, supplemented with notes of lime and (some say) apples.

 

Pleasantly, these head-turning aromas translate beautifully to the palate, bringing a peppery kind of tang to the tongue.

Effects

While Sour Lemon OG is famed for a respectable THC content capable of hitting like a strong shot of espresso, inducing cerebral influence in the form of a head rush or creative spike of energy, you’re in for a very different kind of treat with CBD Sour Lemon.

 

Where this pheno does bear similarity to her renowned parent strain is in the sedative relaxation influence she brings to the table, however, it’s worth noting that it is indeed possible to feel some of the buzz from Sour Lemon OG in the mix (though likely only if you’re quite the casual consumer with a low THC tolerance).

 

This hybrid is definitely not one to turn to if you’re looking for that quintessential stoner high, but when a light and relaxing buzz is on the cards, this cannabis strain’s ability to boost mood and contentment make CBD Sour Lemon a highly desirable choice - especially if you suffer from any of the many medical conditions this CBD-heavy strain is designed to target.

Medical Uses of CBD Sour Lemon Feminized

With average highs of 8% CBD content, CBD Sour Lemon Feminized sits nicely in the midst of fellow therapeutic strains. While there are other strains within the medical community which boast higher CBD levels, the 1:1 balance this strain offers alongside tempered cannabinoid quantities lends CBD Sour Lemon well to a host of medical uses.

 

For starters, thanks to the artful balance between THC and CBD ratios, this CBD-heavy hybrid’s properties tend to be far more effective than similar strains with higher THC.

 

Patients who need weed without the psychoactive properties regularly turn to CBD Sour Lemon in the treatment of depression, anxiety, arthritis, stress or chronic pain.

 

While there are those who would prefer strains without any THC whatsoever, many experts believe it is in the balance between CBD and THC that medical marijuana truly proves most effective, and this strain does so like no other with her gentle and uplifting background cerebral influence.

Growing CBD Sour Lemon Feminized Seeds

With a respectable 8 to 10 weeks flowering time, CBD Sour Lemon is a reasonably fast-growing Sativa hybrid with a propensity for growing in a somewhat tall and gangly structure.

 

This can present some challenges to cultivators used to cultivating a more typical Indica strain, however, you shouldn’t find too much trouble when growing a crop of CBD Sour Lemon Feminized seeds. It may, however, be worth being at the ready with some stakes or trellises for added support later on in the grow.

 

In fact, thanks to that lanky nature, the act of trimming your plants or adjusting humidity levels in the lower regions of the plant becomes something easily accomplishable even for the most novice of growers. This does, however, present the additional difficulty of making sure adequate light reaches the entire plant.

 

For this reason, experts suggest implementing a Screen of Green set up (not to be confused with the Sea of Green method).

 

You might also consider using organic soil as a means to elicit the maximum flavor and medicinal potential from CBD Sour Lemon’s rich terpene profile.

 

As you might expect, the flowers bloom with a strong citrus aroma, popping with hints of lemon and lime, underlined by subtler dank tones of raw earthiness.

 

After 8 to 10 weeks, the love and effort you show these plants will bear fruit in the form of roughly 400 grams per meter squared of dense, therapeutic nugs for those cultivating crops indoors, while outdoor growers are looking at closer to 500 grams per plant, and should aim for a harvest around mid-October in the northern hemisphere.

Summary

If you love Sour Lemon OG, you might want to take a pause before trying CBD Sour Lemon. If you’re happy to sacrifice some potency in exchange for elevated CBD alongside that delightful citrus flavor and fragrance profile, then this is a strain for you.

 

If, however, you need your buds to bring you to cloud 9 and deliver that quintessential red-eye stone, look elsewhere.

 

CBD Sour Lemon Feminized seeds are perfect for those who appreciate the need for balanced CBD to THC ratios in their medicinal marijuana, easily approachable for novice growers, and guaranteed to win the hearts of any lover of fruit-flavored ganja.
