AMNESIA LEMON KUSH is the result of crossing a great Amnesia Lemon with a pure Afghan Kush. She is an extremely hardy, fast growing Sativa. The plants are medium height with long branches making it ideal for SCROG systems in which they tend to respond by branching out abundantly. The flowering cycle is not too long, gives off a strong citrus aroma with slightly incense like back notes. The effect is psychoactive and cerebral but becomes physical as time goes by.
Strain FAQ
What goes into breeding cannabis strains to smell like incense?
Selecting parent strains with precise terpene profiles allows the production of strains with this distinctive scent. This precise technique amplifies aromatic components like myrcene, linalool, and caryophyllene to give an incense-like feel.
What role does stress play in increasing THC levels in cannabis plants?
Strategically applied stress, known as 'stress training,' can enhance THC levels in cannabis plants. Techniques such as low-stress training (LST), super cropping, and controlled light exposure are used to stress the plant in a way that boosts cannabinoid synthesis without harming the plant. This method must be carefully managed to avoid over-stressing the plants, which can lead to adverse effects.
Are there any particular challenges with Sativa strains?
Yes, the vigorous growth and tall stature of Sativas can pose a challenge in confined spaces. Techniques such as "Screen of Green" (ScrOG), topping, and LST (Low Stress Training) are often employed to manage their height and promote more horizontal growth, making them more manageable indoors.
