Lemon Buttercream

Lemon Buttercream is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 19-25% on average, with 1% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Lemon Buttercream high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. The handoff between head and body is seamless, making it easy to dose for either a productive afternoon or a slow evening. These combined effects make Lemon Buttercream a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

On the palate, expect lemon and sweet up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. Each exhale leaves a lemon-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has compact rounded dense green nugs with rich blue-purple undertones, rust-colored hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

In the garden, Lemon Buttercream is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Buttercream family — see Buttercream Gelato for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
