Lemon Skunk
Lemon Skunk from DNA Genetics is the Skunk #1 selection that became one of the most influential parent plants of the modern lemon-strain catalog, including Super Lemon Haze and Lemon Tree. Onset is moderate and the arc holds steady for two to three hours.
Flavor is sharp lemon peel on the front, a classic skunk funk underneath, and a sweet citrus finish. Limonene leads, with myrcene and caryophyllene support. Smoke is smooth and the lemon note carries through clean. A reliable pick on California connoisseur shelves and a frequent staple on NY and MA menus through 2026. A friendly entry point for adults 21+ exploring lemon-forward genetics.
