Citron
Classification: Balanced hybrid
Hook:
Citron is a citrus-saturated Greenpoint Seeds hybrid known for sticky, trichome-covered flowers, explosive lemon and orange peel, sweet cookie dough, skunky fuel, and a balanced experience that can shift from uplifting clarity into soothing physical relaxation.
Lineage:
The documented Greenpoint Seeds version of Citron crosses Crockett Family Farms’ Clementine with the clone-only Animal Cookies. Clementine, itself associated with Tangie and Lemon Skunk, contributes vigorous growth, larger yields, sharp citrus, and energetic cerebral effects. Animal Cookies adds sweet dough, skunk, pine, dense resin coverage, color potential, and a heavier physical finish. The Citron name is also applied to an unrelated OG Kush-associated cultivar of uncertain parentage, so products should be verified against their breeder or grower.
Aroma / Flavor / Appearance:
Citron commonly expresses lemon zest, orange peel, tangerine, tart fruit, cookie dough, skunk, pine, kerosene, and sweet-and-sour funk. The flavor may open with bright lemon and orange before developing doughy sweetness, pine, earth, and a lingering fuel note. Flowers are generally medium-to-large, sticky, and highly resinous, with Clementine-leaning plants producing larger citrus-heavy colas and Animal Cookies-leaning phenotypes displaying denser frost, darker coloration, and stronger visual contrast.
Effects & Use:
Citron is generally described as euphoric, uplifting, clear, creative, and physically calming. Clementine-dominant phenotypes may feel more energetic and functional, while Animal Cookies-dominant selections can become heavier or sleepy as the experience develops. It may suit music, creative projects, conversation, outdoor recreation, afternoon decompression, or relaxed evening use depending on phenotype and dosage.
Medical / Wellness Use:
Patients may look to Citron for stress, low mood, fatigue, reduced motivation, physical tension, persistent discomfort, or difficulty relaxing. Its effects can vary substantially between energetic and sedating phenotypes, while higher-potency batches may cause dry mouth, dry eyes, dizziness, anxiousness, or mental overstimulation in THC-sensitive consumers.
Grow Notes:
Greenpoint Seeds describes Citron as a medium-to-tall feminized hybrid suited to indoor, outdoor, or greenhouse cultivation in a warm, relatively dry environment. Plants may develop long branches, substantial internodal spacing, and significant early-flower stretch, making topping, fimming, supercropping, or low-stress training useful indoors. Reported flowering time is approximately 70–80 days. Some Animal Cookies-leaning phenotypes may be sensitive to environmental fluctuations, require additional calcium and magnesium, or show greater powdery-mildew susceptibility. Consistent pH, selective pruning, strong airflow, and controlled humidity are important for maintaining plant health and flower quality.
Lab Profile:
Greenpoint Seeds does not publish a fixed cannabinoid specification for Citron, while secondary references commonly associate it with approximately 18–22% THC and low CBD. Individual results may test higher or lower depending on phenotype, cultivation method, harvest maturity, cure, and testing laboratory. Expected terpene direction may include limonene, caryophyllene, myrcene, pinene, and humulene, supporting its lemon-orange intensity, cookie sweetness, skunky fuel, pine, and balanced hybrid effects.
Patient Reminder
Strain names are not enough. Two products with the same strain name can feel different depending on grower, harvest, cure, storage, lab profile, terpene content, and individual biology.
