Also known as: Mike's Strawberry Lemonade
Overview
Strawberry Lemonade is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain whose genetics are thought to be Lemon OG X Strawberry Cough, bred by Barney's Farm. This strain exhibits a 51% sativa and 49% indica genetic composition, offering users a well-balanced experience that combines the energizing qualities of its sativa heritage with subtle indica relaxation. The strain achieved prestigious recognition by winning 1st place for "Best Sativa Concentrate" at the 2015 High Times Denver Cannabis Cup.
The buds are characterized by their cone-shaped structure and light green coloration with brown pistils and white trichomes, creating popcorn-like clusters. When properly cured, Strawberry Lemonade flowers release an earthy strawberry scent with undertones of fresh citrus fruits, while grinding the nuggets releases a dank, hash-like odor similar to OG Kush. The smoke is described as smooth and easily palatable with a sweet flavor during exhalation. With THC content ranging between 16-28% and low CBD levels around 0.5%, this strain produces intense cerebral highs followed by bodily relaxation. Medical cannabis patients commonly choose Strawberry Lemonade for its potential therapeutic benefits in addressing stress, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, fatigue, and ADHD symptoms, with some users also reporting benefits for PTSD and PMS.

Growing Information
This strain is recommended for growers with some experience and reaches 120-150cm in stature indoors. Strawberry Lemonade has a flowering time of 9-10 weeks when grown indoors and should be ready for harvest in October when planted outside. Indoor yields average 500-600g/m² (18 oz./m²), while outdoor plants can yield 1000-2500g per plant (14 oz/plant average). The plants are particularly resistant against mold and mildew, making them relatively resilient. Like most sativa crops, it grows tall and cultivating these plants indoors requires ample vertical space. Plants may need to be topped if growing in confined spaces to prevent excessive vertical growth.
