Citrus Notes
Citrus notes in cannabis refer to aromatic compounds commonly associated with lemon, lime, orange, and grapefruit characteristics. These aromas typically stem from limonene and other terpenes present in the plant's essential oil profile. Citrus-forward strains have been documented across various lineages, particularly in cultivars descended from Haze and Skunk genetics. The intensity and specific citrus character—bright versus deep—varies significantly based on growing conditions, harvest timing, and individual plant phenotypes. Breeders working in this category often select parent plants exhibiting strong limonene expression to stabilize these aromatic traits across generations.

Breeders frequently use citrus-noted cultivars as parent stock when seeking to introduce or amplify limonene-dominant profiles in new crosses. Selecting for consistent citrus expression requires multiple generations of phenotype hunting and environmental standardization, as terpene production fluctuates with light, temperature, and nutrient variables.
