Super Lemon Hashplant by Sunshine Dream Genetics
Super Lemon Haze × Hashplant
Super Lemon Hashplant is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Sunshine Dream Genetics, aiming to combine the bright, citrusy clarity of Super Lemon Haze with the dense, resinous qualities of classic Hashplant. This cultivar is recognized for its terpene-forward profile and is popular among growers for its yield and suitability for solventless extractions.
Appearance
Super Lemon Hashplant typically grows into medium-tall plants with robust side branching. It tends to produce dense, conical buds that are covered in a thick layer of trichomes, inherited from its Hashplant lineage. The calyx-to-leaf ratio is often favorable, contributing to easier trimming and visually appealing buds. Bud colors can range from lime to olive green, with some phenotypes displaying purple or lavender hues, especially when exposed to cooler temperatures late in the flowering cycle. Bright orange pistils are common, and the buds are often described as frosted due to the dense trichome coverage.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Super Lemon Hashplant is characterized by a strong initial scent of fresh lemon oil, candied citrus zest, and a tangy lemon peel. Underlying this bright top note is a deeper, incense-like aroma reminiscent of hashish and classic Afghan spices. Secondary notes of pine and black pepper can also be present. When ground, the lemon scent intensifies, sometimes evoking lemonade. Upon exhalation, the flavor profile often shifts to a more resinous and hashy taste, with hints of sandalwood and citrus rind. Some users detect subtle herbal tea or cocoa notes, particularly after curing.
Effects
Super Lemon Hashplant is reported to provide an energetic and uplifting experience, often leading to feelings of euphoria and enhanced focus. Its effects are generally considered balanced, drawing from both its sativa and indica heritage, though individual phenotypes may lean more towards one side. Users often describe a clear-headed experience that can stimulate creativity. While generally positive, some users may experience dry mouth, a common side effect of cannabis consumption.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This hybrid typically tests within the mid-to-high THC range, commonly falling between 20% and 22%, with CBD levels below 1%. The terpene profile is often rich, with dominant compounds like Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Pinene, and Terpinolene contributing to its distinct aroma and effects. Limonene and Pinene are associated with the strain's prominent citrus and pine notes, while Caryophyllene can add a peppery edge, and Myrcene contributes to the deeper, earthy undertones.
Growing
Super Lemon Hashplant is noted for its vigorous vegetative growth and responsiveness to training techniques, making it relatively grower-friendly. The plant typically exhibits moderate internodal spacing, allowing for good light penetration. Its structure supports dense bud formation and a high resin yield, making it a favored choice for growers interested in producing material for solventless extractions like hash and rosin. The strain is also known for its efficient trimming due to a good calyx-to-leaf ratio.
Origins & Lineage
Bred by Sunshine Dream Genetics, Super Lemon Hashplant is a modern hybrid resulting from the cross between Super Lemon Haze and a classic Hashplant lineage, often associated with the '88 G13 Hashplant line. The goal was to merge the acclaimed citrus clarity and energetic effects of Super Lemon Haze with the dense buds and resin production of Hashplant. This combination aims to create a balanced hybrid with a terpene-rich profile and desirable cultivation characteristics, appealing to both connoisseurs and extract artists.
