Lemon Delight
Also known as: Lemon Delight OG
Lemon Delight Strain Overview
Lemon Delight is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its distinctive citrus profile and well-rounded effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat unclear in cannabis literature, but it appears to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene in the early 2010s, likely developed by breeders seeking to combine potent effects with a refreshing lemon aroma. It is generally considered a carefully selected phenotype from the broader Lemon family of strains, possibly involving Lemon Skunk or other citrus-dominant varieties.
The strain produces medium to large-sized buds that are typically dense and conical in structure, with a coating of frosty trichomes that give the flowers a sparkling appearance. The coloration ranges from bright lime green to deeper forest green, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The most notable feature is its powerful aroma—when properly cured, the buds emit a sharp, sweet lemon scent reminiscent of lemon candy or citrus zest, with underlying earthy and herbal notes that become more apparent when the flowers are broken apart.
Lemon Delight has become a favorite among both recreational and medicinal users for its reliable effects and pleasant flavor experience. The strain's balanced genetics make it suitable for various times of day, though many users prefer it for afternoon or evening consumption. Its consistent quality and appealing sensory characteristics have helped maintain its popularity in dispensaries and among home growers, though it remains less documented than some mainstream lemon varieties.

Lemon Delight Strain Growing Information
Lemon Delight 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 outdoor harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate with low humidity, particularly during flowering to prevent mold. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation around the dense buds and monitoring for pests that are attracted to citrus-scented plants. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield.
