Limeade
Also known as: Lime Aid
Limeade Strain Overview
Limeade is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing Lime Skunk with Purple Punch. The strain emerged in the late 2010s as breeders sought to combine the energetic citrus qualities of Lime Skunk with the relaxing, fruity characteristics of Purple Punch. Its development represents a continuation of the trend toward flavorful, aromatic hybrids with balanced effects that appeal to both recreational and medicinal users.
The strain is visually distinctive with dense, conical buds that display a vibrant green coloration accented by bright orange pistils. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty appearance, while occasional purple hues may appear in cooler growing conditions. The buds are typically medium to large in size with a tight, compact structure that breaks apart easily to reveal complex aromatic profiles.
Limeade has gained popularity for its pronounced citrus aroma and flavor profile, which is reminiscent of its Lime Skunk parentage. The strain's effects are generally described as well-balanced, providing both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation without overwhelming sedation. Its manageable potency and pleasant sensory experience have made it a favorite among users seeking a functional daytime or early evening strain.

Limeade Strain Growing Information
Limeade is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by early to mid-October outdoors. Indoor yields average 14-16 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing, with indoor cultivation allowing better control over environmental factors. Plants tend to reach medium height (3-5 feet) and benefit from training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold and providing adequate support for the dense buds.
