Genetics & Origin of Lemon Skunk
According to Royal Queen Seeds, Skunk genetics go back to the 1970s and stand for intense aromas, high potency and robust plants. For Lemon Skunk, the breeder crossed the classic Skunk #1 with Citral – a Dutch hybrid that the manufacturer describes as a fixture on the menus of well-known coffeeshops. The result is a balanced hybrid with 50% Sativa and 50% Indica, around 19% THC and a low CBD content. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod, so flowering only sets in when the light cycle is switched to 12/12. Royal Queen Seeds names limonene, caryophyllene and myrcene as the terpenes that dominate the profile. If you would like to get to know the Skunk side of the cross on its own, you will also find Skunk #1 by Barney's Farm in our range.
Who Is Lemon Skunk For?
Lemon Skunk combines citrus aroma with a short flowering time and high yield figures. It suits:
- Growers who like fresh lemon and lime aromas with a Skunk note
- Indoor growers who want to harvest after 8 to 9 weeks of flowering
- Outdoor gardeners in regions with short summers who would like to harvest in September
- Experienced growers who can properly feed and support high-yielding, heavy plants
- Consumers looking for a calming, long-lasting effect for after work
It is less suitable for a first grow: because of the very high yield of 600 to 650 g/m², we rate it as a strain for experienced growers. Anyone who has to grow with as little odour as possible is also less well served by this highly aromatic Skunk cross. You can find more strains for open ground under outdoor seeds.
Growing Lemon Skunk: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
In the grow room, according to Royal Queen Seeds, the seeds grow into robust plants 80 to 120 cm tall. After the switch to 12/12 they need 8 to 9 weeks to ripen; the manufacturer gives the yield as 600 to 650 g/m². It describes the strain as resilient and fast-growing, with good resistance to pests. The flowers become long and dense – so ensure good air movement in the final weeks, and plan for a carbon filter because of the strong citrus-Skunk smell. You will find the basics on climate, light and feeding in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, Lemon Skunk reaches 120 to 150 cm. The manufacturer gives two figures for the harvest: the data sheet states late September, while elsewhere it is said to be ready for harvest by early September – so reckon with September. Royal Queen Seeds states 625 to 675 g per plant as the yield and short summers as the suitable climate. A sunny spot sheltered from the wind and supports for heavy shoots help to make use of this potential. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Terpenes of Lemon Skunk
When the long, dense flowers are broken open, according to Royal Queen Seeds, notes of fresh lemonade and citrus sweets come through first, followed by lemon blossom, damp earth, moss and black pepper. The data sheet sums up the flavour as citrus, fruity, lime and Skunk. The manufacturer names limonene, caryophyllene and myrcene as the dominant terpenes; it does not give lab values for them. It describes the effect as calming, creative, long-lasting and physically relaxing: it sets in a few minutes after consumption and takes hold of head and body alike. Royal Queen Seeds recommends the strain for the time after work, for sociable get-togethers and for lazy weekends. With around 19% THC, Lemon Skunk is strong; how intense its effect is depends on dose and personal tolerance.
