Lemon Sorbet
Also known as: Lemon Sorbetto
Lemon Sorbet Strain Overview
Lemon Sorbet is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing Lemon Skunk with an undisclosed indica-dominant parent, though some sources suggest it may involve genetics from strains like Lemon Kush or other lemon-scented varieties. The strain emerged in the early 2010s from boutique breeders seeking to create a flavorful, aromatic strain with balanced effects. Its development focused on enhancing the citrus terpene profile while maintaining manageable growth characteristics for cultivators.
Visually, Lemon Sorbet plants produce medium to large buds with a dense, resinous structure typical of indica-dominant hybrids. The flowers display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler growing conditions. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange pistils provide visual contrast. The strain's most distinctive feature is its powerful citrus aroma, which has been described as reminiscent of lemon candy or fresh lemon zest with subtle earthy undertones.
Lemon Sorbet is particularly noted for its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational and medical cannabis users for its predictable effects and exceptional flavor profile. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream commercial strains, Lemon Sorbet has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its refined terpene expression and consistent performance.

Lemon Sorbet Strain Growing Information
Lemon Sorbet is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to stay medium in height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like low-stress training (LST) or Screen of Green (SCROG). Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold in dense buds and providing adequate nutrients during the vegetative stage to support vigorous growth.
