Origin
Lemongrass is Lemon Kush crossed with a Humboldt Gelato line, per AllBud. Lemon Kush brings the citrus and the fuel; the Gelato side brings a sweeter body. It has no descendants on file. The energetic, day-leaning effect does not match the 70 percent indica label the same source gives it.
2 lineage claim sets recorded. The one shown is attributed to Humboldt Seed Company; the others are in the tabs above, each with its own source.

About
Lemongrass is named for a fresh herb but smells mostly of diesel.
AllBud lists it as Lemon Kush crossed with a Humboldt Gelato line, a strain with a lemon-and-fuel nose, not a clean herbal one. It also plays energetic and creative despite a 70 percent indica label. The name sets the wrong expectation.
The nose is fuel, not herb.
What to Expect
Lemongrass plays energetic and creative more than sedating. Leafly's reviewers lead with creative at 66 percent of a solid sample, with happy and energetic both at 50 and a focused reading at 33. It is tagged for the day, which fits the effect better than the indica label does.
Headache is the reading to watch, unusually high at 33 percent and matched by a paranoid note near 16. Keep the dose moderate, especially if you are prone to either. This is not a strain to push.
Flavor and Aroma
Lemongrass smells of lemon and pungent diesel with a sour, spicy edge over earth. The flavor keeps the lemon and fuel. There is nothing fresh or grassy about it despite the name.
Terpenes Explained
Lemongrass has no measured terpene profile in our data, with only Humulene, Myrcene, Camphene, Caryophyllene and Limonene named.
A lemon-and-diesel smell like this usually means Limonene and Caryophyllene, but nothing is measured to confirm it. A jar with a sharp, genuinely pungent lemon-fuel note is the one to trust, not a soft herbal one.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Lemongrass THC is reported from about 20 to 24 percent, with the lab-measured sample in our data near 17, so it tests a little under that range. It is a solid mid-strength strain. CBD is a trace, with one reading a little higher.
Lemongrass tests in the high teens to low twenties, so plan for a strong daytime strain despite the indica billing.
