Citral is a modern hybrid strain with an undocumented lineage. Cultivators categorize this strain as being of moderate growing difficulty, suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. When managed under proper conditions, the plant is known to reach maturity quickly with a 49-day flowering cycle and is recognized for producing a high yield.

The chemical profile of Citral is defined by a primary presence of myrcene, followed by secondary caryophyllene and tertiary limonene. This specific terpene arrangement creates a distinct aromatic and flavor experience characterized by the interaction of these three compounds. Each component contributes to the overall organoleptic profile, grounding the strain in its specific chemical composition.

Consumers typically report feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted after use, making this a frequent choice for managing stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. As a THC-dominant variety, the strain has established a substantial genetic legacy through its use in further breeding projects. Its offspring includes Bhushana, Critical Lemon, Dr. Weedman, FG13, Ierdbei F3, Lemon Bud, Lemon Skunk CBD, Northern Light x Shiva x Citral, and Royal Dane.
