Lemon Cherry Pop by Cookies Seed Bank

Lemon Cherry Pop Strain Info

Lemon Cherry Pop is an indica-dominant hybrid from the renowned Cookies Seed Bank, born from a stellar cross of Gastro Pop #5 and Double Lemon Cherry. This genetic mix brings together the best of both worlds: the exotic, sweet notes from Gastro Pop #5 and the vibrant, citrus punch from Double Lemon Cherry. The result? A strain that’s visually stunning and packs an aromatic profile like no other. If you’re a fan of fruity cannabis seeds, Lemon Cherry Pop is a must-try addition to your garden.

The plant itself showcases a balanced morphology, growing to a medium height with a moderate stretch during the flowering phase. It forms dense, compact buds that glisten with a thick coating of trichomes, making them look like they’ve been dusted with powdered sugar. The deep purple hues mixed with bright green leaves create a visual spectacle that’s hard to resist. Due to the heavy weight of the buds, it’s recommended to use supports or trellising to help the plant reach its full potential without snapping under the pressure of its own production.

Flowering Time & Yield

Lemon Cherry Pop has a flowering time of just 8 to 9 weeks, making it a great choice for those who want a quicker turnaround without sacrificing yield. Indoors, this strain can deliver up to 400 grams per square meter, perfect for growers looking to maximize their harvest in a controlled environment. Outdoors, with plenty of sunlight and a bit of patience, Lemon Cherry Pop can produce up to an impressive 550 grams per plant. The outdoor harvest window typically falls between mid to late October, giving cultivators plenty of time to gather their bountiful crop.

Effects and Aroma

The first thing you’ll notice about Lemon Cherry Pop is its bold aroma, a harmonious blend of sweet cherry and zesty lemon, thanks to its parent strains. The terpene profile leans heavily on citrus and fruity notes, with a sugary sweetness that lingers in the air. Upon inhaling, expect a refreshing burst of lemon followed by a smooth, cherry-flavored exhale that leaves a fruity aftertaste on the palate.

With a THC content ranging from 20% to 25%, Lemon Cherry Pop packs a punch that starts with an uplifting mental buzz, quickly melting into a deep physical relaxation. The effects are balanced, making it ideal for unwinding after a long day without completely knocking you out. It’s the perfect companion for stress relief, easing anxiety, or simply enjoying a relaxed, euphoric state of mind. Whether you’re looking for relief from insomnia or just want a strain that offers a sweet and sour sensory experience, Lemon Cherry Pop delivers on all fronts.

Growing Tips & Expert Advice

For those planning to grow Lemon Cherry Pop, it’s good to know that this strain performs best in mild and sunny climates, where it can truly show its potential. It’s a versatile plant that adapts well to both indoor and outdoor environments. However, in outdoor settings, it thrives in regions with plenty of sunlight and warmth. While Lemon Cherry Pop is fairly resistant to common pests and mold, it’s always a good idea to maintain proper air circulation, especially during the flowering phase, to prevent any moisture-related issues.

In terms of difficulty, we’d place Lemon Cherry Pop at a medium level. It’s not a particularly fussy strain, but it does require some care and attention, especially as the buds develop. The heavy colas may need support, so using techniques like LST (Low-Stress Training) or staking can help the plant stay upright and maximize yield. One thing we love about Lemon Cherry Pop is its vigor and robust growth. The plant tends to stretch moderately, giving it enough space for light to penetrate, which results in dense, resin-coated buds that look almost too good to harvest. The stunning purple hues and thick layer of trichomes make this strain a true showstopper in any grow room or garden.
