Franco's Lemon Cheese Strain Overview
Franco's Lemon Cheese is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Green House Seeds as a tribute to legendary breeder Franco Loja, who passed away in January 2017. This strain represents Franco's final breeding selection, created by crossing two of his favorite cultivars: the award-winning Super Lemon Haze and the renowned Exodus Cheese. The strain was named in honor of Franco Loja, a prominent member of the Strain Hunters collective and head breeder at Green House Seeds, who dedicated his life to preserving and developing cannabis genetics worldwide. Franco tragically died from cerebral malaria at age 42 while conducting CBD research in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The strain produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive aroma profile that initially presents bright lemon citrus notes, followed by the characteristic pungent cheese undertones from its Exodus Cheese heritage. When consumed, the citrus flavors are prominent on the inhale, while the savory cheese notes become more dominant on the exhale, creating a complex and memorable flavor experience. Franco's Lemon Cheese develops medium to tall plants with long, wide branches that require support due to the heavy, dense bud production. The strain is known for its vigorous sativa growth pattern and produces frosty buds with a camouflage-like appearance of light and dark green hues.
