LSD-25
Also known as: LSD, LSD Twenty-Five
What is the LSD-25 strain?
LSD-25 is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
LSD-25 is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by Barney's Farm, a prominent Amsterdam-based seed company. The strain was created by crossing two legendary parent strains: Mazar-I-Sharif, a potent indica landrace from Afghanistan, and Skunk #1, a classic hybrid known for its resilience and pungent aroma. The name LSD-25 references the psychedelic compound lysergic acid diethylamide, though the strain does not contain this substance; rather, breeders chose the name to describe the intense, trippy cerebral effects that users often report.
The strain is characterized by its dense, resinous buds that display a striking visual appearance. The flowers typically feature deep purple and dark green hues, often accented with vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of frosty trichomes. The buds are compact and tightly packed, with a sticky texture that indicates high resin production. LSD-25 has gained popularity among both recreational users and cultivators due to its balanced effects and relatively manageable growing requirements.
Notable features of LSD-25 include its complex aromatic profile and long-lasting effects. The strain has won multiple awards in cannabis competitions, including first place in the 2009 High Times Cannabis Cup for Best Sativa. While its exact genetic composition is approximately 55% sativa and 45% indica, the effects tend to manifest in a balanced manner, offering both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. The strain's potency and distinctive characteristics have made it a favorite among experienced cannabis enthusiasts.

How do you grow LSD-25?
LSD-25 is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 9-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are substantial, averaging 500-600 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 600-800 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plants exhibit a medium height, usually reaching 100-160 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. They prefer a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outside. LSD-25 responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, though soil cultivation often enhances the flavor profile. The strain is resistant to most common molds and pests, but requires good air circulation due to its dense bud structure. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training can help maximize yields and manage height. Growers should monitor nutrient levels carefully, as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding during the flowering stage.
