Lemon OG
Lemon OG
Also known as: Lemon OG Kush
Overview
Lemon OG is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (60% indica, 40% sativa) that was originally bred by DNA Genetics through crossing Las Vegas Lemon Skunk with OG #18. Some variations use Super Lemon Skunk as the sativa parent. This strain is renowned for its distinctive citrusy aroma and potent effects, making it one of the most lemony crosses in the OG family. DNA Genetics, founded in 2003, has won over 50 international awards and has made Lemon OG a cornerstone of their catalog.
The strain produces dense, resin-coated buds with a compact, bushy plant structure typical of indica-dominant hybrids. Flowers display vibrant colors ranging from light green to forest green with bright orange pistils and heavy trichome coverage. The plant maintains a relatively short stature with thick stems and broad leaves, making it ideal for Sea of Green (SOG) cultivation methods. Lemon OG is particularly valued by connoisseurs for its exceptional terpene profile that combines intense citrus flavors with classic OG undertones, creating a unique aromatic experience that balances zesty lemon notes with earthy, diesel-like accents.

Growing Information
Lemon OG is considered beginner-friendly with moderate growing difficulty. Flowering time is 8-9 weeks (56-63 days) with some phenotypes finishing slightly faster. Indoor yields average 400-550 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 550+ grams per plant. The strain prefers stable conditions but adapts well to various climates. Plants stay relatively compact and bushy, reaching over 90 inches outdoors but remaining manageable indoors. Minimal support is needed due to strong branches. The strain benefits from SOG methods due to low stretch during flowering. LED lighting is recommended for optimal terpene and cannabinoid production. The plant has enhanced stability and vigor from its Lemon Skunk genetics.
