Citrus Rocks
Citrus Rocks Strain Overview
Citrus Rocks is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity among enthusiasts for its distinctive citrus-forward aroma and balanced effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis literature, with most sources suggesting it emerged in the early 2010s from West Coast breeders seeking to combine potent effects with refreshing flavor profiles. While not as historically documented as classic strains, Citrus Rocks has established a niche following particularly among users who appreciate its energizing yet calming properties.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a frosty trichome coverage that gives them a crystalline appearance. The flowers often display a vibrant green color with occasional orange pistils weaving through the calyxes. The most notable characteristic is its powerful citrus aroma, which is immediately detectable upon opening a container, often described as reminiscent of fresh lemons, oranges, or grapefruit with subtle earthy undertones.
Growers note that Citrus Rocks plants tend to exhibit hybrid growth patterns with moderate height and branching. The strain has gained recognition in certain cannabis communities for its reliable performance and consistent terpene profile, though it remains less widely known than mainstream citrus varieties. Its balanced genetic profile makes it suitable for various consumption methods, and it has become particularly popular in extract and concentrate forms where its terpenes can be prominently featured.

Citrus Rocks Strain Growing Information
Citrus Rocks is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are generally moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. Plants typically reach a medium height of 120-160 cm indoors and can grow taller outdoors if not trained. Citrus Rocks responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. Growers should monitor humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible in humid conditions. The strain has moderate nutrient requirements and benefits from proper flushing before harvest to enhance flavor profiles.
