CBD Sour Lemon
CBD Sour Lemon
Also known as: CBD Sour Lemon (1:1)
Overview
CBD Sour Lemon is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (75% sativa/25% indica) specifically bred to provide a balanced 1:1 THC to CBD ratio, making it ideal for users seeking therapeutic benefits with minimal psychoactive effects. This strain was developed through careful crossbreeding of California Sour, Lemon OG, and an undisclosed high-CBD strain, representing a modern approach to cannabis cultivation that prioritizes medicinal applications alongside recreational enjoyment. The strain was created through a transatlantic collaboration between American innovation and European breeding expertise, with breeders focusing on stabilizing genetics to ensure consistent cannabinoid profiles.
CBD Sour Lemon produces rock-hard, resin-soaked buds with a crystalline sheen from abundant trichomes. The buds are medium-sized with a pale green color and bright orange pistils. The strain showcases typical sativa growth characteristics, including tall plant structure and narrow, elongated leaves. Users report that CBD Sour Lemon provides a clear-headed, functional experience that promotes mental clarity and physical relaxation without the intense psychoactive effects of high-THC strains. This makes it particularly valuable for daytime use and activities requiring mental acuity and focus.

Growing Information
CBD Sour Lemon is considered moderately challenging to grow, requiring generous vertical space due to its sativa-dominant structure. The strain has a flowering time of 8-12 weeks indoors and is ready for harvest in mid-to-late October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields range from 350-400g/m² (1.15-1.32 oz/ft²), while outdoor plants can produce 550-600g per plant (19-21 oz/plant). The strain thrives in warm, Mediterranean climates with temperatures between 70-85°F (21-29°C), requiring well-draining soil and consistent sunlight. During flowering, humidity should be kept lower (40-50%) with good airflow to prevent mold in the dense colas. Plants typically reach medium height and benefit from training techniques to manage their tall, lanky structure.
