Super Lemon Haze reviews

Super Lemon Haze has long been one of my favorite strains both to grow & to smoke. My first pack of feminized greenhouse seeds from 2011 produced 2 phenomenal phenotypes, one of which was the best cut of Super Lemon Haze I’ve ever had. Whether homegrown or otherwise. The second, while excellent, & extremely colorful (the closeup pictures of a pink, purple, & green, trichome coated cola near the beginning of the SLH photos were take by myself, of that very plant). The third seed was a genetic dud & I didn’t even take it into flowering as it stopped completely stopped growing around 8”-10” tall. While both of the plants were excellent, & I’d somehow found them both in a 3 seed pack without the need for a pheno hunt, that first all green plant, which could grow up to 16’ outdoors, but averaged about 6’-7’ indoors, was the most incredible SLH I’ve ever had. She was intensely citric but her terpene profile made it clear that her dominant terpene wasn’t limonene as I’d assumed, but Terpinolene . Indeed limonene wasn’t even one of SLH’s top 4 terpenes, but was all the way in 5th place of her most dominant terpenes. Most of her citrus scent actually came from Terpinolene, Ocimene, & Humelene, although she does have a fair level of limonene as well, her primary terpenes are Terpinolene, Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Ocimene, Pinene, then Limonene, Humelene, Linalool, & several more at lower levels including some rare terpenes. That first plant had over 3.5% terpenes by weight which is by far the highest I’ve ever heard a SLH reaching. Most are between 1%-2% (Indeed this is the typical level for nice smelling plants across the cannabis spectrum, but some plants have as much as 6% terpenes flat weight & some unfortunately have few that they barely smell at all). Her effects were the best I’ve experienced from Super Lemon Haze as well & actually reminded me of an original Seed Bank Nevil’s Haze plant I’d had for a few years (I’d been gifted the seeds on one of my first trips to Amsterdam by a friend that worked with Shantibaba & Nevil at Mr. Nice (this was way back in 1999). More heady than any Super Lemon Haze plant I’ve had since, her high was powerfully euphoric, energizing, & inspiring. She became the first clone I maintained for almost a decade (the following year I’d flower half a pack of Ken Estes’ Bay 11 & found two purple phenos, one of which was unreal, & I kept her for almost as long). I kept the epic cut of SLH alive for a little over 7 years. Outdoors, she could reach 16’ in a 10 gallon airpot. In more humid years I’d lose up to 50% of her flowers to botrytis (SLH doesn’t have bad mold or mildew resistance, but it’s nothing special either). However, when we had a relatively warm & dry autumn, the massive tree would yield over a kilogram of flower. She was the most perfect Super Lemon Haze plant in virtually every possible way. The year before I lost my entire stable (for the first time), I’d found a similarly massive Lemon Versace female in a full pack hunt of the first release of Lemon Versace seeds. I crossed the two by feminizing the Lemon Versace & the resulting plant was one of my best early breeding projects. I crossed the winner of that hunt to my clone only Las Vegas Lemon Skunk x my most phenomenal Tangie, & I had an absolute masterpiece for the year I had her. I’ve been trying to get my own genetics company off the ground for years, & initially planned to launch in 2019, but fate intervened in the cruelest way possible. My entire stable was lost in late 2018 due to a burst pipe that dripped water into an electric socket, causing the breaker to my nursery to trip. And just days after I had taken almost every plant I had back to clone. I’d done so since my tents were over capacity even beforehand, but after my cousin sent me her best mothers, I had no other option. I also figured it would help with breeding since my plants would all be about the same size & age. Primarily, the proximate cause of taking everting back to clone was in order the make room for all my plants plus several of the best cannabis genetics ever that my cousin from Oregon had collected & kept alive for over 25 years (she started growing in 1992). She’d been running a very lucrative clone nursery using those genetics, & with me planning to launch a seed company & her about to have twins, she’d decided to gift me the very best mothers from her garden, which she was no longer going to have time to focus on. Unfortunately, she merely said she had a big surprise for me, so when her husband showed up, towing their converted horse trailer turned hidden mobile grow room, carrying no less than 20 of her best mothers, I was ecstatic but a bit overwhelmed since I didn’t have any space for them. And I didn’t want to sacrifice my own collection of genetics, although in hindsight, that’s exactly what I should have done. But I had total faith in my abilities & no awareness of what was about to happen. So it seemed the best solution was to take the best plants I’d collected / bred in my several years of work, & the best mothers she’d collected in her 26 years of growing & selling primo clones on the West Coast, & make clones of every plant - with 2 or 3 cuttings per plant, my aeroponic cloners were totally full to capacity, with 168 healthy cuttings that represented several of the most storied cultivars in cannabis history. My cousin’s collection included the c. 1993 Blueberry F2 clone that was DJ Short’s most 🫐 smelling plant ever, the original Sour Diesel clone (that I’d sent her while living in NYC for college from 1999-2003), the original SF 2004 clone of Grand Daddy Purple that was almost neon purple and had the most crystal coasted, hairless buds I’d seen to that point, a Jack Herer cut of the 1994 HTCC winning cut, as well as a cut of the hat trick cut of Super Silver Haze that had won the HTCC in 1997, 1998, & 1999, original pre-2000 cuts of Kali Mist, NYCD, Silver Bubble, Apollo 13, & C99, a clone of original 1990s Piff / NYC Haze, one of the earliest cuts of Strawberry Cough, as well as Cherry AK-47, landrace Santa Marta Colombian Gold, Panama Red, Juicy Fruit, Pure Hawaiian Sativa, Malawi Gold, Angola Red, an incredible foxtailing Laotian that smelled like strawberries & peaches, a Highland Oaxacan Gold - one of the last known living cuts, Congo Pointe Noir - another landrace that many believe is lost but is just really rare, a cut of original, uncrossed, 14 week flowering Durban Poison, with the skinniest sativa leaves I’ve ever seen, which is such a hard plant to find (nearly every Durban Poison plant out there has indica genetics, & they’re very hard to find still totally pure- if it blooms in under 12 weeks it’s not pure Durban Poison), an amazing Vietnamese Black, & a Lebanese Blonde Hashplant. There was a clone of Big Sur Holy Weed, an original GGG Grape Stomper cutting, what I’ve heard was a legendary cut of Strawberry Banana, an original Wedding Cake (#23) clone, Rez ECSD v. 3, a HyPro cut of Super Silver Haze aka original Amnesia, a clone of Santa Cruz Blue Dream from what was supposedly the first seed hunt, an unadulterated cutting of c. 2005 LA OG Kush, the genuine and uncrossed original, as well as several of the best genetics from TGA/Subcool, including breeder’s cuts of Jack The Ripper, the Jack’s Cleaner Blueberry cut, Vortex, Chernobyl, Jillybean, Agent Orange, & Strawberry Daiquiri, and original cuts of Purple Urkle, U-Dub, Trainwreck, Cecil B. Green Crack, Appalachia, Casey Jones, C. 1991 Sam The Skunkman Skunk #1, & two versions of Santa Cruz O Haze - one Purple Haze, & one Green Haze. I spent days taking the healthiest cuttings from each plant my cousin had sent me, as well as from my own several years worth of successful hunting efforts as well as my first 4-5 breeding successes, all so that they’d all fit it my tents and I wouldn’t have to sacrifice any. But in trying so hard to keep them all, I lost them all. It took me over 16 hours before I discovered the power was off in my nursery, & it was too late for every one of those incredible, unrooted cuttings. After I lost my stable in late October 2018, I grabbed two 10 packs of Super Lemon Haze seeds, & despite hunting from a population of 17 female Super Lemon Haze plants grown from seed, while I did find some excellent phenotypes, none compared to the legendary tier keeper from that first pack I’d grown. And while the colorful pheno from that first pack had some jaw dropping bag appeal, it never grew taller than 5’ & I didn’t keep her for more than 3 cycles. I’ve had trouble finding another pheno of SLH with the same levels of intense coloration, but with a more intense terpene profile, similar to the other plant I grew from that first pack which had best in class effects & terps. She had rhe most intense lemon 🍋 / & Terpinolene Haze heavy terpene profile, I still haven’t been able to find a plant like her. Nor have I been able to find another phenotype like that first, legendary tier cut of Super Lemon Haze. Sometimes you get lucky when growing out just a few beans, & end up find better plants than you do hunting multiple entire packs of seeds. It isn’t more likely than the alternative, but it does happen.

One of my favs!!!!! Happy - Happy - Joy - Joy!!!!

This lovely lady, Super Lemon Haze, has been in my Top-3 List of Faves for years now (tho she's unfortunately been MIA for a long time!) so I was beyond-thrilled to reacquaint! This -- my T-81.43% oil -- brings welcome flavors of lemon-y 🍋 •zesty •sweet •sour •bitter 🍋 ...it oft tickles my nose into a sneeze! It's easy to appreciate the energizing, creative punch I get from this sativa-dominant hybrid. And while I suffer from anxiety + tend to be discerning of my sativa selections, this 💣lovely 🍋lady does NOT smoke like a 👻🚆haze & is not at all jittery. In fact, she calms me so beautifully w/o ever slowing me down, so she can & SHOULD be enjoyed by one & all! •5🌟🔥• °°°🌎☮️❤️°°°

One of the best strains on earth. Has a psychedelic aspect. Crazily euphoric. Treat your connoisseur friends. I guarantee they'll be asking you where you purchased. Every time I indulge in SLH, I think, " This is absolutely amazing. Takes things to a whole other level.

Let me just start by saying I’ve always been wary of sativas. As someone who deals with general and social anxiety, most of them tend to crank my thoughts up way too loud — or worse, push me into full-blown paranoia mode. But Super Lemon Haze? Game-changer. I picked this up from Pull Up DC, and I swear, it was like the sun cracked open inside my brain. The citrus smell hit first — zesty, bright, almost like lemon candy — and the smoke was smooth, no harshness at all. Within a few minutes, I felt this light, energetic lift that didn’t feel rushed or overwhelming. Just right. It’s honestly one of the only strains where I can socialize without overthinking every word, feel motivated enough to clean the house or run errands, and still not get lost in my head. It clears the fog, boosts my mood, and gives me just the right kick of creativity without any of that buzzy nervous energy. If you’re someone who’s naturally high-strung or hesitant with sativas, Super Lemon Haze might surprise you — it did for me. And if you're local, definitely scoop it up from Pull Up DC. Their batches are 🔥 and this one is now a must-have in my daytime rotation.

So legal rec went live in Ohio a couple weeks ago and this was my first legal purchase, picked up some SLH at Ohio Cannabis Company in Piqua just this afternoon, grown by Butterfly Effect. I've always wanted to try Super Lemon Haze and I am not disappointed. This is very nice weed, it's a nice light green color with big, pointy red hairs and a dry, sugary texture to the (ample) trichomes. I can see the Haze in the genetic lineage because the hairs have that kind of equatorial landrace sativa look to them that is reminiscent of old pictures of Panama Red that I've seen. The nose is sharp lemon and pine with tea tree oil on the back end, as well as a general spicy citrus smell ala Pineapple Express or Jack. It's very pleasant, like a lemon-scented cologne instead of a chemmy Pine Sol type deal. I've had bad experiences with that lemon-pine terp combination but definitely not this time. I celebrated my first legal nugs in Ohio by going hiking, it was sunny and clear with a nice wind. I suspected SLH would be a good day time sativa and I took one big hit before I hit the trail, I was off to the races. It had a nice lemon taste and I was uplifted, euphoric, and giddy at first. The wind felt really nice on my skin as a nice buzz manifested in my brain; no significant muscle relaxation or any heaviness in the body, as I was hiking at a good pace, and the Super Lemon Haze had me feeling magnanimous and slightly dreamy instead of laser-focused. Later in the hike my head felt a little swimmy and I got that old feeling like my head was a balloon floating away, I'm 42 and that hasn't happened since the first time I got good weed in high school for a Creed concert in the spring of 2000 lol...that floaty feeling was a nice hike down memory lane for a minute. Later on at home I smoked the rest of the bowl and played guitar for a couple hours, had a great session. Bottom line: I love sativas and Super Lemon Haze is a new Top 5 strain for me, I think it's one of the best strains to come out of Europe. I only had one hit when I went hiking earlier and that was all I wanted, so I think that (for me) SLH might be a little strong to be a regular daytime activity strain (and I've been smoking for 25 years), so for morning or afternoon activities I would want a more mellow sativa like Pineapple Express or Jack Herer. But I love SLH as a late afternoon/early evening guitar playing/listening to music/watching a movie kind of strain; I wish I could go back in time and have a joint of Super Lemon Haze at every concert I ever went to, it's very high energy and uplifting but it's also very stony and psychedelic. I would caution against smoking SLH too late in the evening as well, as it could overstimulate your mind in a way that most hybrids and all indicas will not.

I vaped a few hits of distillate roughly 8 MG THC (3.97mg per hit estimated) of this super lemon haze, and the flavors are legit. I taste the lemon skunk and sweet notes in the mix; vapours were smooth; felt an instant head change. Felt numbness right on my cheeks and behind eyes felt a relief of pressure. Mood is enhanced with somewhat creeping euphoria. Clear headedness with some relaxation to the upper extremities. Noticed environment got somewhat brighter. Also felt like I gained natural energy. (wake and baked this) -- Biceps feel tingly. Backpain went away surprisingly. Feeling very focused. Subtle cotton mouth and subtle dry eyes. Mood lifter feeling happiness and almost giggly. Body relaxation with subtle couch lock. Had a little bit of nausea before I started session due to my prescribed medicines and vitamins. Nausea has vanished! Was having arthirtis like pain in my fingers that went away.

Had some SLH recently, and definitely enjoyed it!
