Buddha's Hand
Also known as: Buddha's Hand's, Lemon Buddha
Overview
Buddha's Hand is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing Lemon Thai with Snow Lotus. Originally bred by Bodhi Seeds, this strain derives its name from the Asian citron fruit that resembles outstretched fingers, symbolizing longevity and good fortune in Asian cultures. The strain inherits its energizing and stress-relieving properties from Lemon Thai, while Snow Lotus contributes to its soaring cerebral effects and enhanced terpene profile. Buddha's Hand is characterized by its dense, trichome-covered buds with spade-shaped structure, sporadic purple colors, and abundant orange pistils. The plant produces tight, popcorn-shaped flowers with a frosty white crystalline coating that indicates high potency. Known for its pungent citrus and wildflower aroma, this strain has gained popularity among cannabis enthusiasts for its unique flavor profile and well-balanced effects that provide mental clarity without sedation, making it an ideal daytime companion for productivity and mood enhancement.

Growing Information
Buddha's Hand is moderately easy to grow, suitable for beginners but benefits from experienced cultivation. The plant grows to medium height (5-8 feet) and thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments, preferring warm, humid conditions. Indoor flowering time is 8-10 weeks with yields of 12-16 ounces per square meter (350g/m²). Outdoor plants flower in October with yields of 16+ ounces per plant (400g per plant). The strain is resistant to pests and produces highly resinous buds. Indoor temperatures should be maintained at 70-85°F (21-30°C) with humidity at 40-50%. Due to its strong pungent aroma, proper ventilation is recommended. The plant requires regular pruning for improved air circulation and bud development.
