About Lemon Thai

Lemon Thai is a sativa that combines Thai genetics with a Hawaiian sativa. It is known for its bright, tropical heritage and is found in US dispensaries where classic sativas are in demand.

The aroma is fresh and zesty, with sour lemon, sweet citrus and a faint earthy, herbal note. Buds are usually light green and slightly airy, with orange hairs and a moderate trichome coat. Terpinolene often brings a bright, herbal character, limonene drives the lemon flavor, and myrcene can soften the finish with a little sweetness.

Lemon Thai is commonly described as energetic, uplifted and happy. Many people reach for it in the morning or afternoon for social plans or creative work, though some find it racy at higher doses. THC usually ranges from 15% to 21%, with little CBD, and potency varies by grower and batch.

Lemon Thai can suit people who enjoy citrusy daytime sativas. Start low, go slow, and take a break if you feel restless or notice racing thoughts. Use WhereLeaf to find Lemon Thai at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you.
