Lemon Orange from Green House Seed Company was a pleasure to grow. Specimen was vigorous in its growth at all stages, less a short period of grower error where she was over fertigated. She stretched substantially over a 3 week period as it transitioned to flower.
Specimen produced large dense colas, and was very productive for trichomes. Inter-nodal spacing following the stretch was a bit wider than I would have liked, but overall I would say it could be classified as medium (4 to 8cm). There was some purpling of larger leaves at the margins and at tips of calyxes near the end of flowering, but the plant primarily faded to yellow/gold colouring, perhaps more indicative of Super Lemon Haze heritage and dominance in this particular phenotype.
Fresh cut flowers smell strongly of lemon, sweet citrus, with an earthy pine background.
Overall, this specimen of Lemon Orange (and 2 others in the garden), performed exceptionally well, while demonstrating some stress resistance through a couple of very hot periods over the summer. I am pleased with the outcome, would recommend this strain to others, and plan to sow a seed of it for the next growing season.
SMOKE REPORT
Upon opening the jar the room was immediately filled with a very pungent smell of citrus and skunk. Ground up a small flower of the Lemon Orange specimen, and significantly contributed to the building odours in the room. The flowers were sticky to the touch, dense and perfectly dried with just a nice bit of squish and bounce back to them.
Used the dry herb vaporizer to test the ground up sample. After one pull the flower tasted of sweet oranges, with a distinct earthy and spice undertone, likely an indication of its Super Lemon Haze background. Effects were immediate, a little bit behind the eyes, but mostly that euphoric and energetic head buzz, which is why this particular breed was selected for cultivation. Very enjoyable
Overall assessment is that Lemon Orange from Green House Seed Company is an excellent hybrid that produces dense flowers that have very good bag appeal, has balanced effects, a wonderful and strong aroma, all backed up by a delicious sweet citrus flavour. One cannot really go wrong with the strain, but I do recommend a full 8 week cure to get the best of manicured flowers.
FURTHER DETAILS
82 grams of manicured flower was produced, along with an additional 28 grams of smaller un-manicured flower that will be used for extracts (i.e. canna-butter, infused MCT oil, or bubble hash).
