Origin
Melonade's cross is not settled. Sources give it as either a Watermelon Zkittlez pairing or Lemon Zkittlez crossed with Lemon Tree, and our records do not resolve it. The Zkittlez and Lemon Tree influences both point to the sweet citrus flavor. It has two descendants on file, and for a strain this new the grower and the seed line are worth confirming.

About
Melonade is a modern hype strain that Alien Labs took to a Cup win.
First bred by Midwest Best and popularized by Alien Labs, it took first prize at a 2018 Cannabis Cup. Sources disagree on the cross, listing either a Watermelon Zkittlez pairing or Lemon Zkittlez crossed with Lemon Tree. The name is a portmanteau of melon and lemonade.
What to Expect
Our effect data for Melonade is limited. Calm dominates the associated words by a wide margin, with an uplifted, creative edge, so it reads as a bright but settled high rather than a racing one. Sources call it light and heady despite the near-pure sativa labeling.
There is no reviewer breakdown and almost no negatives data, just a light hunger note. With the record this thin, meet a new batch with a small dose and time to gauge the strength.
Flavor and Aroma
Melonade is sweet and sour citrus with a fruity, candied edge over an earthy, herbal base and a pungent, spicy note. Sources describe melon-and-lemonade; the aroma data leans more citrus than melon. The flavor is sweet-and-sour fruit through the exhale.
Terpenes Explained
No terpene testing is on file for Melonade, only the recurring names Humulene, Myrcene, Camphene, Caryophyllene and Limonene. Limonene would explain the citrus, but there is no figure behind it.
The melon note the name leans on comes from minor compounds a standard panel misses, so a lab sheet will not confirm it. Smell the jar for the specific fruit character.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Melonade THC is reported from about 18 to 27 percent, with the lab-measured sample near 22, so the low-to-mid twenties is realistic and the higher figures are menu claims. CBD is a trace.
Expect a strong strain in the low twenties and treat any near-30 figure as advertising.
