Mike’s Strawberry Lemonade
Mike’s Strawberry Lemonade is a modern, hybrid strain bred from the lineage of Strawberries and Cream. This cultivar is designed for those seeking a balance of genetic traits, performing well in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a moderate level of difficulty and a high yield, with a flowering period that concludes after 55 days of development.
The chemical profile of this strain is anchored by a terpene composition led by myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene. These compounds combine to define the sensory experience, offering a distinct aromatic and flavor nuance that reflects the prominence of these three specific terpenes.
As a THC-dominant variety, Mike’s Strawberry Lemonade produces effects characterized as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These attributes make the strain suitable for individuals managing stress, pain, or difficulties with sleep. The genetic legacy of this cultivar is further evidenced by its status as a progenitor of the notable offspring Zitric Z.

Research notes below describe isolated terpene mechanisms and early findings. They do not guarantee effects from this strain and are not medical advice.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Russo 2011: acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (IC50 0.44 mM) counteracting THC-induced short-term memory deficits; most widely encountered terpenoid in nature; anti-inflammatory via PGE-1.

Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
