He says the initial smell is strongly citrus, which softens to a sweet, earthy smell as you smoke.
The taste when you inhale is mainly lemon with an earthy hint that gets stronger when you exhale.

Cannabis THC and CBD
Callum points out the THC and CBD levels: London Lemons usually has about 17 to 19% THC, which is great for people who have some experience but don’t want something too strong.
The low CBD, around 0.1 to 0.5%, helps keep the effects sharp and focused, he adds.
Weed Appearance
The buds are as good-looking as they are effective, says Callum.
He describes them as dense, light green, and sticky, covered in orange hairs and a thick layer of trichomes that gives them a sugary look.
When you handle them, their stickiness tells you they’re full of quality substances.
Genetic Lineage
This strain is believed to come from Lemon Haze and Super Lemon Haze, both famous for their strong citrus flavors, Callum explains.
This makes London Lemons mostly sativa, evident in its energetic effects and the way it grows.
The sativa part is strong, showing in how the plant grows and how it makes you feel.
Growing Experience
Growing London Lemons is quite rewarding if you have the right conditions. It likes a warm, sunny climate, he shares.
Indoors, the plants are medium-sized, manageable but still productive, with yields of about 1.6 to 1.9 oz/ft².
If you grow them outside, they can get really tall, up to 7 feet, and by the end of September or start of October, you could be getting up to 28 oz per plant.
It’s a great choice for anyone looking at both quantity and quality.
