Also known as: Double Lotus OG
What is the Double Lotus strain?
Double Lotus is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Double Lotus is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed through the crossbreeding of two notable parent strains. While its exact genetic lineage is sometimes debated among cannabis enthusiasts, it is generally accepted to be a carefully selected hybrid that combines desirable traits from both indica and sativa varieties. The strain gained popularity in the early 2010s within the West Coast cannabis community, particularly in California and Oregon, where it was appreciated for its reliable effects and distinctive aromatic profile.
The strain's name references both its genetic composition and its characteristic effects. 'Double' suggests the dual nature of its hybrid genetics, while 'Lotus' alludes to the serene, calming experience many users report. The buds are typically dense and compact with a structure leaning toward indica dominance, featuring deep green coloration with occasional purple hues that emerge under cooler growing conditions. Orange pistils weave through the buds, and a generous coating of trichomes gives Double Lotus a frosty appearance that hints at its potency.
Double Lotus is recognized for its complex aromatic profile that combines earthy, floral, and citrus notes. The strain has maintained a consistent presence in dispensaries and among home growers due to its manageable cultivation requirements and reliable performance. While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, Double Lotus has developed a dedicated following among users who appreciate its balanced effects and distinctive flavor characteristics.

How do you grow Double Lotus?
Double Lotus is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid to late October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though it thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in the dense buds and providing adequate support during flowering as the resinous buds can become heavy. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
