Lemon Tart strain guide
Lemon Tart is a cross of Wedding Cake and Super Lemon Haze from The Cali Connection. People describe a lemony, slightly creamy smell and an upbeat, focused feel. Listings put its THC from about 19% to 24%.
Where does Lemon Tart come from?
Lemon Tart is a cross of Wedding Cake and Super Lemon Haze. One strain database and seed retailers credit the breeder The Cali Connection, and another database describes it as a Wedding Cake clone crossed with a Super Lemon Haze female that was reversed to make seeds. It is sold as feminized seed.
One blog credits a different breeder, but the breeder's own seed listings and the databases agree on The Cali Connection. Some Canadian products with similar names, such as Lemon Tartz, use the same two parents but aren't confirmed to be the same cut.
What does Lemon Tart smell and taste like?
One strain database lists tar, tea and lemon as the main flavours, while a seed retailer describes citrus, lemon and a creamy, yogurt-like note. The lemon comes from the Super Lemon Haze side, and the cream from Wedding Cake.
One strain database names ocimene as the dominant terpene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene. Ocimene is a sweet, herbal note that is fairly uncommon at the top of a list, caryophyllene adds pepper and limonene the citrus.
Lemon Tart effects: what people report
Reviewers on one strain database most often call Lemon Tart focused, uplifted and energetic, with some mentioning euphoria. That fits its sativa-leaning label, though that label is only a rough guide. See our indica vs sativa guide for why.
These are experiences people report, not promises. Dry eyes, dry mouth and dizziness are the most common complaints. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance.
How strong is Lemon Tart?
One strain database lists 19% THC, and a seed retailer gives 20% to 24%, so most sources sit in the low 20s. That database lists about 1% CBG and no CBD figure.
Those are listings, not lab results for your batch. The numbers on the label matter more than the name, and our guide to reading cannabis labels explains them.
Buying Lemon Tart in Canada
Lemon Tart is mostly known as a breeder's seed line, so check which producer grew a given product and whether it is the Cali Connection cross or a similar name.
Look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of its citrus.
Lemon Tart vs Super Lemon Haze
Super Lemon Haze is one of Lemon Tart's two parents. It's the source of the zesty lemon and the bright, energetic reputation. Lemon Tart adds Wedding Cake's creamier, doughier side and usually reads a bit smoother and less sharp. Super Lemon Haze tends to be described as racier. If you want the cleaner lemon, start with Super Lemon Haze. If you like lemon with some cream, try Lemon Tart.
