Permanent Marker X Lcg
Permanent Marker × Lemon Cherry Gelato
Permanent Marker X Lcg is a contemporary hybrid cannabis strain that combines the distinctive candy-gas aroma of Permanent Marker with the sweet citrus-cherry notes of Lemon Cherry Gelato (LCG). This cultivar is known for its layered profile, aiming to deliver both potent effects and a complex sensory experience.
Appearance
Plants typically grow to a medium height, exhibiting a stretch of 1.5 to 2 times during the initial flowering weeks. Buds are characterized by densely stacked nodes, forming columnar colas and secondary branches. The calyx-to-leaf ratio is favorable, facilitating easier trimming, with prominent bract development later in the flowering stage. Expect dark green foliage that can develop violet and deep magenta hues under cooler nighttime temperatures, often appearing frosted due to abundant, bulbous resin heads.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Permanent Marker X Lcg blends solventy floral-gas notes with bright confectionary scents, often featuring lemon zest and cherry syrup over a base of violet and diesel. Upon breaking apart cured buds, deeper aromas of berry sorbet and vanilla sherbet may be released. The flavor profile typically starts with a sharp citrus note that evolves into a cherry-berry gelato taste, finishing with a peppery, inky gas. The exhale is often sweet with lingering creaminess, while the retrohale can present floral and grape skin notes.
Effects
This hybrid strain is noted for producing uplifting and creative effects, often accompanied by a sense of relaxation that can lead to couch-lock. Its balanced profile aims to provide a noticeable impact while maintaining a layered sensory experience.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Dominant terpenes commonly found in Permanent Marker X Lcg include limonene, beta-caryophyllene, and linalool, with supporting terpenes such as myrcene, humulene, and pinene. Cannabinoid analysis frequently shows THC content ranging from 23% to 30%, with total cannabinoids often falling between 26% and 34%. CBD levels are typically below 1%, though trace amounts may be present. CBG is also sometimes detected in notable percentages.
