Best lemon flavored weed strainsBest lemon flavored weed strains

Lemon flavored cannabis is possibly the most common flavor profile in the world of cannabis strains. This lemony flavor of lemon weed strains is sometimes accompanied by skunky aromas and is typically associated with Sativa-like effects. The distinct lemon flavor and aroma come from a terpene called Limonene, which is present in other citrus strains and citrus fruit. Limonene is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and the ability to boost mood and replenish energy levels, aligning with the energizing and invigorating effects of Sativa cannabis, however, Indicas and hybrids can also present Limonene as breeders are able to stabilize certain characteristics by crossing different types of genetics.
