About
Lemon Diesel splits opinion: bold, or just a competent gas-and-citrus blend?
Green Lantern Seeds crossed California Sour with Lost Coast OG and cracked the 2010 Emerald Cup top ten. One writer describes it as a gas station dropped into a citrus orchard, which is either the appeal or the problem depending on the smoker.
The nose divides people.
What to Expect
Lemon Diesel is an up, social hybrid. Happy leads Leafly's reviewers at 57 percent of a solid sample, with euphoric at 54 and uplifted at 50, and a mild body-heaviness underneath. Sources place it as a late-morning strain.
Side effects are mostly dryness, with dry mouth at 30 percent and dry eyes at 18. The anxious and paranoid notes stay low. Not the one for a calm night in.
Flavor and Aroma
Lemon Diesel is sharp lemon and sour candy up front with a skunky diesel underneath. The two halves do not blend so much as sit next to each other. The taste keeps the lemon ahead of the fuel.
Terpenes Explained
Lemon Diesel has no terpene numbers in our data, only Myrcene, Camphene and Limonene named.
The citrus-versus-fuel tension people argue about lives in lighter aromatic compounds no standard panel captures. A jar where the lemon clearly wins is the one most smokers prefer.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Lemon Diesel THC is reported from about 13 to 22 percent, a wide moderate range, with the lab sample near 16. One stray CBD reading in our data is clearly an error; the strain is THC-dominant with a trace of CBD.
Lemon Diesel tests weaker than its reputation, often in the mid teens, so try a little before making it a daily strain.
