Where does Lemon Cream come from?

Sources agree that one parent is Cookies and Cream, but they don't agree on the other. One strain database lists a strain simply called Lemon, while another database names Lemon Tree and also mentions Joe's Lemonade. That database credits the breeding to Dark Horse Genetics.

With that much disagreement, the full cross is not well documented. You may also see the name written as Lemon Crème.

What does Lemon Cream smell and taste like?

Lemon leads: tart, citrusy and strong enough that people notice it as soon as the jar opens. Under that there's a sweet, creamy side, with earthy and pine notes in the background.

The flavour is described as sour lemon softened by cream and a little vanilla, with a light herbal exhale. We couldn't find a published terpene breakdown for Lemon Cream, so we've left that blank rather than guess.

Lemon Cream effects: what people report

People most often call Lemon Cream euphoric and uplifting, with a tingly body feel. Reviewers mention feeling focused and motivated, and one described it as balanced: relaxed but still able to concentrate. Some also report getting hungry.

These are experiences people report, not promises, and there aren't many reviews to go on. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance.

How strong is Lemon Cream?

One strain database lists Lemon Cream at about 18% to 24% THC, with little CBD. We found only that one published range, so treat it as a rough guide.

Start with a small amount and give it time before having more. The THC and CBD numbers on your product's label are what count, and our guide to reading cannabis labels explains them.

Buying Lemon Cream in Canada

Lemon Cream isn't a common name, and with its parentage unsettled, different producers may be growing different plants. Read the producer's description if there is one.

Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date on the label, since fresher flower keeps more of that lemon smell.

Lemon Cream vs Cookies and Cream

Cookies and Cream is the one parent everyone agrees on. It's all sweet vanilla and nutty dessert, and people usually call it relaxed and giggly. Lemon Cream keeps some of that creamy sweetness but puts a sharp lemon on top, and it's described as more uplifting and focused, closer to a daytime strain. If you want pure dessert, go with Cookies and Cream. If you'd like that cream with a tart citrus twist, try Lemon Cream.

Strains like Lemon Cream

If you like Lemon Cream, these are worth a look:

  • Cookies and Cream: its agreed parent, sweet and creamy with a calmer feel.
  • Lemon Tree: one of the parents some sources name, loud lemon with a little gas.
  • Lemon Meringue: also bred from Cookies and Cream, with lemon, nutty notes and an energetic reputation.
  • Lemon Cookies: a loud lemon smell with a sweet, nutty cookie side.
