Lime Sorbet
Lime Sorbet
Overview
Lime Sorbet is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created through crossing Bubba Kush with Lime Skunk, resulting in a distinctive cultivar that combines the relaxing properties of classic indica genetics with bright citrus flavors. This relatively rare strain emerged from the broader wave of dessert-themed hybrids that gained popularity in the late 2010s, with its unique lime-forward profile making it a standout among citrus cannabis varieties. The strain exhibits a 70% indica and 30% sativa genetic composition, positioning it firmly in the indica-dominant category while retaining some uplifting sativa characteristics. Visually, Lime Sorbet produces spade-shaped buds with a minty green coloration, adorned with vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of golden amber crystal trichomes that give the buds a sticky, resinous texture indicative of high cannabinoid and terpene content. The buds are notably dense and tightly packed, reflecting the quality genetics and careful cultivation required for this strain. Under certain growing conditions, particularly cooler temperatures, the foliage may display subtle purple hues that add to its visual appeal and complexity.

Growing Information
Lime Sorbet is considered moderately challenging to grow and is best suited for growers with some experience. The strain requires high-intensity lighting during the vegetative stage and nutrient-rich soil with balanced pH to support its dense trichome production. It thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature (68-80°F/20-26°C during day, slightly cooler at night) and humidity can be closely monitored. Plants grow medium to tall in height and have a flowering time of approximately 63-70 days (8-10 weeks). Indoor yields can be substantial, ranging up to 550g/m² under optimal conditions. The strain responds well to training techniques and benefits from proper canopy management. Outdoor cultivation is possible in warm, humid conditions, though indoor growing is preferred for optimal terpene and cannabinoid production.
