Lemon Tree S1
Also known as: Lemon Tree
Lemon Tree S1 Strain Overview
Lemon Tree S1 is a self-pollinated (S1) version of the legendary Lemon Tree strain, created by stabilizing the elite clone-only cut from Southern California through a sophisticated breeding process. The original Lemon Tree emerged from Santa Cruz, Northern California, and gained international recognition after winning first place for Best Hybrid at both the San Francisco and Seattle High Times Cannabis Cup events in 2014. This strain represents the crossing of Lemon Skunk and Sour Diesel, two pillars of modern cannabis genetics.
The S1 designation means this variety uses reversed pollen from the original Lemon Tree to produce seeds that maintain the parent's characteristics while offering greater uniformity than traditional breeding methods. Multiple reputable breeders including Elev8 Seeds, Humboldt CSI, and Greenpoint Seeds have developed their own S1 versions to make this elite genetics accessible to growers worldwide. The strain is renowned for having what many consider the loudest, most intense lemon terpenes ever encountered in cannabis, capable of filling an entire room with citrus aroma even before opening containers.
Lemon Tree S1 produces dense, resin-coated buds with round dark olive green nugs covered in furry amber hairs and a thick coating of bright white crystal trichomes. The buds display vibrant lime green colors accented by bright orange pistils, giving them a visually striking appearance. Plants exhibit a balanced growth structure combining the compact size of indica genetics with the vigor and stretch characteristics of sativa varieties, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation.

Lemon Tree S1 Strain Growing Information
Lemon Tree S1 is considered moderate difficulty to grow, making it suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks (56-70 days) and produces high yields with proper care. Plants thrive in both indoor and outdoor environments, preferring warm climates for outdoor cultivation with harvest typically in early to mid-October. Indoor plants benefit from consistent temperatures and moderate humidity levels. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to encourage bushy growth and maximize yields. Plants prefer a balanced nutrient regimen with emphasis on nitrogen during vegetative growth and phosphorus/potassium during flowering. Regular monitoring prevents nutrient burn, and maintaining proper pH around 7 optimizes cannabinoid and terpene production. The strain produces dense, resin-heavy buds with intense aromatic properties that may require enhanced ventilation during weeks 6-9 of flowering.
