Where the Lemon Diesel Strain Is Grown
Word has it that the breeders at Green Lantern Seeds came up with the Lemon Diesel strain. But the California-based Emerald Triangle Seeds also has a version of Lemon Diesel, which is a cross between California Sour and Pakistani X Lemon Thai X Chemdawg #4 (which is, for all intents and purposes, the Lost Coast OG strain). The ETS version of the strain appears to have the genetics we’re talking about here.
Lemon Diesel Summary
Lemon Diesel is an excellent choice for just about any toker looking for some soothing, smile-inducing flower that has the power to ease stress, anxiety, insomnia, depression, and pain. Similar strains include Purple Diesel, Cherry Diesel, Lilac Diesel, and Sour OG, all of which are balanced, indica-sativa hybrids with comparable, chill-inducing effects.
