Super Lemon Haze Medical Marijuana Strain Review

From:  Tree of Life

Grade:  A

Type:  Sativa-dominant Hybrid, (Lemon Skunk x Super Silver Haze) from Green House Seeds

Price:  $50/8th

Appearance:  (9/10)  This sample was a beautiful tight nug with a medium green color and neon orange pistils.  A very tight manicure and copious trichome coverage completed the excellent appearance package.  The trichomes were also perfect, with some ambers but mostly cloudy heads.  The only knock was that we spotted a few tiny immature seeds.

Aroma:  (8.5/10)  Now this is a lemon strain — it reminds us of “Lemonheads” candy — a sweet/sour combination, but wholly lemon.  It wasn’t super-pungent, and that made us just want to smell it more.

Taste: (9/10)  Again, amazing lemon qualities here, with that same sweet and sour tang, this time rather pungent.  The Haze side is evident in the flowery aftertaste, but this one just screams lemon.  The other notable quality is that the smoke was one of the smoothest around… no inclination to cough at all.  It burned to a very light gray ash, indicating a great flush.

Effects:  A strong tingling feeling allover the body and up around the head/face, low and buzzy eyes, the “phantom hat” feeling started this one off — a potent Sativa ride to begin things.  With burning eyes, attention was fixed on one thing at a time, as other distractions fell by the wayside.  This seems like it would be a good creative strain for focus-oriented activities.  The body feelings subsides about 1.5 hours in, leaving the eye feeling behind as well as a strong appetite.  Calm and cool to finish, this was a standard Sativa up-then-down arc.

Duration:  Long, 2.5 – 3+ hours

Medicinal Traits: (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  Great focus and attentive mindset, appetite stimulation, body relaxation towards the end, and possible ocular relief.

Overall: We loved the “super” lemon qualities of this strain, one of the most lemony we’ve encountered for sure.  The ultra-smooth and enjoyable smoke just put it over the top, making this one a top recommendation for those patients who love taste and ease of smoking.  But beyond that, it provided a quality focus and a buzzing energy throughout the body, eventually subsiding to a mellow and relaxed state.  The long duration and above-average peak potency make this a no-brainer choice if it’s in stock at Tree of Life.  Superb strain and grow all-around.
