Also known as: Lemon Cream, LCS
Lemon Cream Soda Strain Overview
Lemon Cream Soda is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing Lemon Skunk with Cookies and Cream. The strain emerged in the mid-2010s from breeders seeking to combine the energetic, citrus-forward qualities of Lemon Skunk with the creamy, relaxing effects of Cookies and Cream. While its exact origin is somewhat debated within cannabis communities, it is generally associated with West Coast breeders who focused on dessert-flavored strains during that period.
The strain is characterized by dense, conical buds that are typically light to medium green with occasional purple hues, covered in a thick layer of frosty trichomes and vibrant orange pistils. The aroma is its most distinctive feature, combining sharp lemon and citrus notes with sweet, creamy undertones reminiscent of its namesake beverage, often with a subtle earthy or diesel-like finish on the exhale. The flavor profile is similarly complex, delivering a smooth, sweet citrus taste that lingers on the palate.
Lemon Cream Soda is noted for its well-rounded effects that begin with an uplifting cerebral euphoria before transitioning into a gentle, full-body relaxation. It is considered a versatile strain suitable for both daytime and evening use, depending on dosage. The plant tends to be moderately difficult to cultivate, requiring attention to humidity control to prevent mold, but rewards growers with respectable yields of aromatic, resinous flowers.

Lemon Cream Soda Strain Growing Information
Lemon Cream Soda is considered moderately difficult to cultivate, suitable for intermediate growers. It has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late September to early October. The plant prefers a controlled indoor environment but can be grown outdoors in warm, Mediterranean-like climates with low humidity. Indoors, it tends to stay medium in height, often reaching 3-4 feet, while outdoor plants can grow taller, up to 5-6 feet. Yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot and outdoor growers achieving 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation and humidity below 50% during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible. The plant responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yield and light penetration.
