Origin
Lemon Tree is Lemon Skunk crossed with Sour Diesel, from growers who never put their name to it. Both parents are sharp citrus-and-fuel strains, which is why the cross reads so loud. It has seven descendants on file. Its 2014 Cup win is a large part of why the name spread, and it should not be confused with the cultivation company of the same name.

About
Lemon Tree has a serious flavor reputation and a terpene panel that undercuts it.
An anonymous grower crossed Lemon Skunk with Sour Diesel, and the result took Best Hybrid at the 2014 Seattle Cannabis Cup. Reviewers love the sour-citrus-and-fuel nose. The lab numbers tell a slightly different story.
The nose sells it.
What to Expect
Lemon Tree is an easy, well-balanced hybrid. Relaxed and happy lead Leafly's reviewers, at 61 and 60 percent of a solid sample, with a bright, dreamy quality early that gives way to a light body calm. It suits the back half of an afternoon.
Side effects barely appear here, with dry mouth at just 11 percent and dizziness at 3. Not a strong choice if you want to feel hit hard.
Flavor and Aroma
Lemon Tree is a loud sour lemon and skunky diesel smell, the two parents both showing clearly. The flavor is earthier and more sour than the aroma. It is one of the sharper citrus noses on a shelf.
Terpenes Explained
Lemon Tree's panel is thinly recorded in our data, but an outside measurement puts Myrcene first at about 0.85 percent, then Caryophyllene near 0.35, with Limonene low at roughly 0.18.
So the lemon most people rave about is not coming from a high Limonene reading; it sits in lighter compounds a standard panel measures poorly. Buy on the smell of the specific jar.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Lemon Tree THC is reported from about 20 to 25 percent on menus, though the lab-measured sample in our data is closer to 17. CBD is a trace.
Lemon Tree is a flavor strain first, so pick the batch with the sharpest sour-lemon nose and do not chase the number.
