Citral
Hybrid
Origin
Citral is generally given as a Pakistani landrace crossed with Super Skunk, though sources agree the pedigree is not locked down. The Pakistani side would account for the hash note, Super Skunk for the pungency. It has one descendant on file. With a record this thin, the safest read is the jar in front of you, not the lineage.

About
Citral is a lemon-and-hash skunk without much of a track record yet.
AllBud traces it to a Pakistani landrace crossed with Super Skunk, though the pedigree is not firmly settled. The data is thin: a bright citrus flavor, a skunky hash aroma, and a mostly uplifting afternoon effect. The record is still thin.
Wait for more reviews.
What to Expect
Citral is an uplifting, mildly numbing afternoon high. The reviewer sample is thin, but the few entries on record are happy and uplifted, with a euphoric lift and a comfortably numb body note. Sources say the head clears soon after the first puff.
Dizziness is the odd one here, reported more often than the light dry mouth, though the sample behind that is small. Start low until you know it. This is an afternoon strain, not a nighttime one.
Flavor and Aroma
Citral is a bright lemon smell that turns skunky and hash-like as it sits. The flavor is sweeter citrus with a fruity, resinous note and a herbal edge. The lemon is the selling point; the skunk is the surprise.
Terpenes Explained
Citral's terpene profile is unmeasured in our data; Humulene, Myrcene, Caryophyllene and Limonene are named and left at that.
A lemon smell this bright usually means a Limonene-forward plant, but with no test that is only a guess. A jar with a genuine fresh-lemon lift, not a dull citrus, is the one worth trying.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Citral THC is reported from about 15 to 20 percent, a moderate range, with no clean lab sample in our data. CBD can reach one percent.
Citral is a moderate strain with a thin record, so buy a small amount first and see how it lands.
