Super Lemon Haze strain is a winning first prize for two consecutive years (2008 & 2009) in the High Times Cannabis Cup & taking home first prize the following year at the IC420 Growers Cup, Super Lemon Haze is quickly becoming a highly recognizable strain.

In its true form, Super Lemon Haze strain is a Sativa dominant hybrid weed created by Arjan of Green House Seeds. The breeder began with a female from his infamous Super Silver Haze genetics – which won three consecutive Cannabis Cups in 1997, 1998 & 1999 – and carefully bred this with a 3-way cross of Haze, Skunk #1 and Northern Lights #5.

Arjan then bred that by-product with the more popular Lemon Skunk – a strain that made its way from Las Vegas to Amsterdam by way of a breeder named The Lemon Man – to get the Super Lemon Haze you see today in dispensaries throughout the West Coast.

The genetics of Super Lemon Haze combine sweet & tart, lemony tastes (partially due to the terpene Limonene) and aromas that make for a mellow high that begins in the body but quickly flows to the mind. The THC count of this strain can reach as high as 25 percent, which can lead to paranoia & anxiety when consumed in larger quantities by novice smokers.

Super Lemon Haze strain typically exhibits several terpenes, which are organic compounds that are produced by many plants, including cannabis. The most common dominant terpenes found in this strain are limonene, which is also found in citrus fruits such as lemons, & terpinolene. Terpenes present at lower levels may include beta-caryophyllene, ocimene, and myrcene, depending on the plant’s genotype.

Energetic & social, this hybrid can be a great daytime medication for eliminating fatigue, anxiety & stress. The mood-elevating properties of Super Lemon Haze strain may also help regulate mood disorders, such as chronic depression, PTSD and/or anxiety. This strain may help patients dealing with minor pains, nausea and appetite loss. It may also help patients overcome ADD/ADHD & migraines.

Not the best choice for amateurs’ first grow, Super Lemon Haze strain is a strain that does not require a lot of attention, though it may need support during flowering. That period of growth can last between 56 & 65 days, which makes plants ready for harvest in October or November outside.

Super Lemon Haze strain is well suited for the Screen of Green technique. Inside growers may get as much as 600 grams per square meter to come harvest, outdoors this may be as much as 800 grams per plant. Super Lemon Haze is resistant to the fungus Botrytis, gray mould.

Paranoia is a common ill side-effect in novice consumers or those that consume too much for their body type along with bloodshot eyes & cottonmouth.
