Limonene Dominant Families
Limonene-dominant families represent cannabis strains where limonene—a monocyclic monoterpene—comprises a substantial portion of the strain's terpene profile. Limonene is commonly associated with citrus aromatics and is frequently detected in strains descended from Lemon, Sour, or Citrus-tagged lineages. These families often trace through modern breeding work involving cultivars like Lemon Haze, Super Lemon Haze, and various Sour diesel-adjacent lines. Limonene concentration and expression can vary significantly between phenotypes, even within the same strain. Breeders working in this category often prioritize terpene stability and preservation across generations when selecting parent stock.

Breeders select for limonene dominance to maintain citrus aromatic consistency and to explore how this terpene interacts with other cannabinoid and terpene profiles. Limonene-rich phenotypes are useful markers for polyhybrid selection when building new crosses with predictable aromatic outcomes.
