Also known as: Salted Lime Sherbet
Salted Lime Sherbert Strain Overview
Salted Lime Sherbert is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the late 2010s, representing a creative cross between two popular dessert-themed varieties. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to combine the uplifting cerebral effects of sativa-dominant hybrids with the physical relaxation of indica genetics, resulting in a balanced hybrid that has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users. While its exact origin story varies among different breeders, it is generally accepted as part of the expanding 'sherbet' family of strains that have become prominent in the West Coast cannabis scene.
The strain's name accurately reflects its sensory profile, featuring a distinctive appearance characterized by dense, resinous buds with a lime-green coloration accented by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of frosty trichomes. The nugs are typically medium to large in size with a tight, compact structure that breaks apart to reveal complex aromatic layers. Growers note that Salted Lime Sherbert plants often display vigorous growth patterns with robust branching, making them suitable for various cultivation techniques including SCROG (Screen of Green) and LST (Low Stress Training).
Notable features include its pronounced terpene profile that delivers a unique combination of citrus, diesel, and sweet dessert-like aromas. The strain has gained recognition for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation, making it suitable for both daytime and evening use depending on dosage. While not as widely documented as some classic strains, Salted Lime Sherbert has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its complex flavor profile and versatile effects.

Salted Lime Sherbert Strain Growing Information
Salted Lime Sherbert is considered a moderate-difficulty 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 are substantial, averaging 450-550 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity during flowering to prevent mold. Plants exhibit hybrid vigor with medium height (indoor: 100-150cm, outdoor: 150-200cm) and respond well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation due to dense bud structure, implementing support structures during late flowering as buds become heavy, and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as plants can be sensitive to overfeeding.
