Citral Profile
Citral is a prevalent terpene compound found across numerous cannabis lineages, particularly those descended from Lemonhaze, Lemon Skunk, and related citrus-forward families. The terpene profile is commonly associated with bright, lemon and lime-like aromatic characteristics. Citral exists as two isomers—geranial and neral—which together create the distinctive acidic, fresh quality often tagged in breeding records. Lineage records frequently report citral prominence in strains where lemon or citrus aromas are primary selection criteria. Breeders working in this category often cross lines with established citral-dominant parents to stabilize or enhance these volatile compounds across generations.

Breeders use citral-dominant parent lines as flavor anchors when developing new cultivars targeting citrus-forward profiles. Consistent citral expression across F1 and F2 generations helps breeders identify stable genetic markers for aroma consistency.
