Sensory data is a curated, hand-mapped seed; detail completeness is medium. Identity confidence is medium. The diagram is this strain's own sensory radar, not a photo. Batch quality still depends on grower, freshness and storage — none of which is captured here.
Background
The story
“Bright, sugary lemon-citrus, fast and clear.”
The nose is bright, sugary lemon-citrus with herbal and spicy notes. The effect is fast-acting, energetic and uplifting with mental clarity.
It's a parent of Lemon Kush.
Genetics
Lineage undocumentedWe looked and couldn't confirm it — the parents aren't publicly documented (often a clone-only or market-label strain). Not an omission.
Lemon Skunk × Pineapple Joy
Lineage confidence: low — independent of how well-documented the strain itself is.
