Background
Lemon Blues is a cross of Blues and an unknown Haze Strain, originally bred by UGORG as a test strain named "UGORG Beta-C". This particular phenotype was found in a bag of UGORG Beta-C seeds by Roadrunner, who then gave the cutting to Kush Family Collective at the 2015 Dopefiend Cup.
This strain ticks a lot of boxes: Great flavour? Check. How about the smell? Check - lemony goodness. And the effects? Check!
Appearance
Great bud structure, good firmness. Not an overly dense strain, lots of trichomes visible by eye. Under the microscope I could see lots of milky delicious trichomes.
Aroma
Earthy Lemon with a hint of Skunky flavour that comes from its heritage. She is a stinker, with a delicious smell - like a strong lemon cross.
When you break open the bud and grind it up, a dank and skunky smell is released, but you can still smell the lemon which overpowers everything else!
Taste
The Lemon comes through but so does the Blues with a skunky taste that came through my bong nicely.
I really enjoyed the taste of the Lemon Blues cannabis strain, finding it more enjoyable than a lot of the other lemon-flavoured strains I had tried (and I love that lemon flavour). I was also really impressed with the smoothness and did a second bong hit almost immediately, to get a "better judge of the taste" of course.
Effects
I found the lemon blues to be really uplifting - this is a fast acting cannabis strain that hit me with a lot of the feelings I'd expect from a sativa-dominant hybrid.
I smoked this in the morning, and again today, and found it to be a good strain to start the day. The effects of the Lemon blues certainly put a smile on my face, and I recorded them to be quite long-lasting, well over the hour mark before I recorded the high beginning to fade.
Conclusion
WAKE AND BAKE WORTHY.
