Lemon Triangle
Also known as: Lemon Triangle Kush
Lemon Triangle Strain Overview
Lemon Triangle is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the West Coast cannabis breeding scene. The strain represents a carefully crafted combination of three distinct genetic lineages, though its exact breeding history remains somewhat obscure due to the proprietary nature of many modern cannabis breeding programs. Breeders sought to create a strain that combined the cerebral effects of sativa varieties with the physical relaxation of indicas, while emphasizing the distinctive citrus terpene profile that gives the strain its name.
The strain's name references both its prominent lemon aroma and its triangular genetic heritage. Plants typically display dense, resinous buds with a frosty trichome coating that gives them a crystalline appearance. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to lime green, often with vibrant orange pistils weaving through the bud structure. The nugs are usually medium to large in size and have a dense, compact structure typical of hybrid varieties.
Lemon Triangle has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its balanced effects and pronounced citrus flavor profile. The strain is particularly noted for its ability to provide both mental stimulation and physical relaxation without overwhelming sedation, making it suitable for daytime or evening use depending on dosage. Its relatively consistent genetic expression has made it a favorite among growers seeking reliable results with manageable cultivation requirements.

Lemon Triangle Strain Growing Information
Lemon Triangle is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 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 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though it thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to reach medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold in dense buds and monitoring for common pests like spider mites. The strain responds well to organic nutrients and produces heavy resin production in the final weeks of flowering.
