Super Lemon G strain guide
Super Lemon G is a hybrid most often listed as a cross of G13 and a Colombian Gold backcross. It smells of lemon and pine with a peppery, diesel edge. People describe a bright, energetic start that settles into a relaxed body feel.
Where does Super Lemon G come from?
The cross given by a strain database and by at least one producer's listing is G13 with Colombian Gold BX. BX means backcross: a version of Colombian Gold bred back to itself to lock in its traits. One other producer lists G13 with Colombian Haze instead, so the second parent isn't fully settled.
No breeder is clearly credited, and we couldn't find a release date. Sources also disagree on how it leans: one database calls it about 60% indica, while a producer sells it as a sativa. Despite the name, there's no documented link to Super Lemon Haze.
What does Super Lemon G smell and taste like?
Lemon is the headline, sweet and sour at once, with pine, wood and earth behind it. Many descriptions add a peppery spice and a little diesel, which keeps it from tasting like plain lemonade.
Published terpene data is limited to producer listings, which name myrcene, pinene and caryophyllene. Pinene fits the piney freshness, caryophyllene the pepper and myrcene the earthy base. The flavour usually follows the smell: citrus first, pine and spice on the finish.
Super Lemon G effects: what people report
The common description is a quick, bright rush of energy and mood lift, followed by a relaxed body feel. Some people find the head side hazy and a little detached rather than sharp, so it may not suit everyone who wants a clear-headed strain.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. There aren't many written reviews, so expect some variation from batch to batch.
How strong is Super Lemon G?
The one published range we found puts Super Lemon G at about 20% to 22% THC, with little CBD. That's a modest amount of data, so lean on the number printed on your package.
If you're new to it, start small and give it time before having more. Our guide to reading cannabis labels explains what the numbers mean.
Buying Super Lemon G in Canada
Don't mix it up with Super Lemon Haze or Super Lemon OG, which are different strains with similar names. If the label lists G13 as a parent, you're in the right place.
Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of the lemon.
Super Lemon G vs G13
G13 is the parent sources agree on. G13 is famous mostly for a legend about a government grow, and it smells earthy and piney with a calm, heavy reputation. Super Lemon G brings a much brighter lemon smell and a more energetic start, likely from its Colombian Gold side, before the relaxed body feel arrives. If you want something steady and earthy, go with G13. If you want citrus and a lift first, try Super Lemon G.
