LGMO strain guide
LGMO is a hybrid from Lit Farms, a cross of GMO and Melonade. It pairs two very different smells, sweet melon and citrus on one side and savoury, garlicky funk on the other, and it's a newer strain with only a handful of published details.
Where does LGMO come from?
LGMO is credited to Lit Farms. The cross listed by the main strain databases is GMO, the famously savoury Garlic Cookies, with Melonade, a sweet melon and lemon strain.
That's about all that's well documented. One less reliable write-up gives Larry OG and GMO as the parents instead, but the GMO and Melonade cross is what the breeder-linked listing shows. What the "L" stands for isn't explained anywhere we found.
What does LGMO smell and taste like?
Expect a mix. LGMO is described as sweet melon and citrus up front, with an earthy, savoury funk behind it and a faint cookie-like depth from the GMO side. It's less garlic-heavy than GMO itself, but the savoury note doesn't disappear.
Its listed terpenes are caryophyllene, limonene and myrcene. Caryophyllene brings a peppery, savoury edge, limonene the citrus and myrcene a softer, earthy sweetness.
LGMO effects: what people report
LGMO is described as a balanced hybrid: an uplifting, euphoric start, sometimes with a creative or social feel, that settles into a relaxed body calm without heavy sedation. That makes it sound more flexible than GMO, which most people save for late in the day.
These are descriptions, not promises, and there are very few user reviews of LGMO so far. How it feels depends on the product, the amount and your own tolerance.
How strong is LGMO?
Published listings put LGMO at about 23% to 24% THC, with very little CBD. Only a few figures are available, so treat that as a rough guide.
That's above average, so if you're new to it, start with a small amount and wait before having more. The THC and CBD numbers on your label are what matter, and our guide to reading cannabis labels explains how to read them.
Buying LGMO in Canada
LGMO is a newer, less common name, so check the label for the GMO and Melonade cross and the producer. Short names like this are easy to mix up with other GMO crosses.
Look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date. Fresher flower holds more of the melon and citrus, which fade before the savoury notes do.
LGMO vs Melonade
Melonade is LGMO's sweeter parent. Melonade is all melon and lemon, sativa-leaning and usually described as upbeat and happy. LGMO keeps that melon and citrus but adds GMO's savoury, garlicky funk underneath, and reports describe a more relaxed finish. If you want clean, sweet fruit, Melonade is the simpler pick. If you like sweet and savoury together, LGMO is the more unusual one.
