Also known as: Electric Lemon G, Ohio Lemon G
Lemon G Strain Overview
Lemon G is a legendary sativa-dominant hybrid that emerged from Ohio in the early 2000s, earning recognition as "the pride of Ohio" and establishing itself as a cornerstone strain in Midwest cannabis culture. This strain originally appeared as a clone-only variety with mysterious origins, though it later made its way to California where feminized seeds were eventually developed. Lemon G descends from the legendary G-13 strain, with the other parent remaining unknown, though theories suggest it could be Kali Mist, Colombian Gold, Lemon Skunk, or Love Potion #1.
The strain is distinguished by its striking aromatic profile and balanced effects that set it apart from other varieties of its era. In a market saturated with earthy, skunky varieties, Lemon G offered a unique sensory experience with its pronounced citrus aroma and flavor profile, providing a refreshing alternative that became its calling card. The buds are fluffy and bright green with thin orange hairs and a light dusting of glistening trichome crystals, emitting a potent lemon and pine scent reminiscent of Pine-Sol. While many potent strains of the time would leave users sedated or "couch-locked," Lemon G provides substantial effects without overwhelming sedation, offering an energetic yet manageable experience. Its demanding growth characteristics and clone-only availability created an element of exclusivity, with veteran consumers often speaking of "real, old-school Lemon G" with reverence.

Lemon G Strain Growing Information
Lemon G is a mostly sativa strain suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with a flowering period of approximately 70 days (10 weeks). Indoor flowering time ranges from 9-11 weeks with yields averaging 8-12 ounces per square meter, while outdoor cultivation in Mediterranean climates is ready for harvest in October with yields of 12 ounces or more. The ideal growing space requires at least 6 feet of height to accommodate the plant's sativa stature, with reflective walls to maximize light exposure and sufficient spacing between plants for airflow. The strain has relatively demanding growth characteristics and was traditionally available only as clones. For indoor cultivation, full-spectrum LED lights positioned 18-24 inches from the canopy are recommended due to their energy efficiency and lower heat output.
