Lemon Candy Feminized – Exotic Seeds
Lemon Candy Feminized is one of the most balanced and refreshing varieties in the Exotic Seeds catalog. This hybrid was born from the union between an “American Mother” (a US genetics selected for vigor and aroma) and the legendary NYCD (New York City Diesel).
The result is a plant that perfectly embodies the balance between the Indica and Sativa worlds, offering a robust structure and an aromatic profile reminiscent of homemade lemon candies.
According to Seedfinder technical data, Lemon Candy was stabilized to offer fast flowering without sacrificing the complexity of the terpenes. It is a plant that shows exceptional vegetative vigor, with wide leaves and a bright green color that testifies to its metabolic health.
With a high THC level, it stands as an ideal choice for those seeking an energizing yet controlled effect, perfect for socialization or creative work requiring clarity.
Cultivation strategies and GrowDiaries analysis
Consulting the GrowDiaries reports, Lemon Candy emerges as a very adaptable plant, capable of performing well in both soil and hydroponic systems. Its structure tends to stretch moderately during the first two weeks of flowering, a trait inherited from the Sour Diesel component.
It is a plant that rewards the grower who knows how to manipulate its shape to maximize light exposure.
- Canopy management: It responds magnificently to the Topping technique. This allows you to break apical dominance and promote the development of numerous lateral buds, which will become massive and loaded with resin.
- Nutritional needs: It is a plant that dislikes nitrogen (N) excesses in the late stage. Expert growers suggest switching to a flowering booster rich in phosphorus and potassium as early as the fourth week to support flower swelling.
- Flowering time: Indoors, it usually completes in 8-10 weeks. It is important not to harvest too early: the last week is when the citrus notes become more pungent and “sweet.”
- Harvest yield: Very satisfying, with averages ranging between 400-500g/m2. Outdoors, in full sun, it can produce massive plants capable of exceeding 600 grams per specimen.
- Resistance: It shows good resilience against common pests, but as with all Diesel hybrids, it benefits from a clean and well-ventilated environment.
Terpene profile and cannabinoid analysis
The aromatic profile of Lemon Candy is dominated by Limonene, responsible for the strong citrus scent, followed by Myrcene and Pinene. This combination creates an effect that elevates the mood and reduces stress, providing a clean and vibrant experience.
- Taste experience: An explosion of sweet lemon with a fuel and earth aftertaste. The flavor is persistent and leaves a refreshing sensation on the palate, very similar to an artisanal citrus candy.
- Psychophysical effect: It starts with an euphoric cerebral boost that stimulates conversation and concentration. After about an hour, a light physical relaxation takes over without causing lethargy, making it a perfect daytime strain.
- Therapeutic potential: On Leafly, many users recommend it for treating apathy, light depression, and mental fatigue, acting as a true natural tonic.
- Resin quality: The trichomes are fine and very numerous, making it an excellent base for the production of “live resin” extracts where flavor is the absolute protagonist.
Other Information
A predominantly Sativa hybrid, Lemon Candy is born from the resulting cross between our selections of an American indica and NYCD.
The result is a hybrid with a strong structure, medium yield (can go up to 400 grams per square meter without too much effort). When growing this plant, we must pay particular attention to any light stress situation, as we have observed that this affects it, and often interrupts the formation of the flowers, significantly decreasing the production.
It is a variety where a complex aroma predominates, where citrus hints mix with the sweet part brought by the mother’s cross, and this can vary from individual to individual, where at the end of the flowering period sweet touches of skunk appear on top. the aromas.
The effect is of medium intensity, being active in the beginning, staying until the end, where the Indica part of the party appears providing a physical bass that continues until the end of the effect.
We recommend extractions with this variety, not so much for the yield we are able to collect, but for its quality, where all these characteristics are accentuated and over time they end up becoming one of our favorite varieties when doing dry extractions.
