Sour Lemon Beans
Sour Lemon Beans is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from the genetics of Lemon Bean. This strain is designed for cultivators seeking a productive harvest, exhibiting a high yield with a moderate difficulty level that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a flowering period of approximately 67 days before the plants reach maturity.
The chemical profile of this strain is defined primarily by terpinolene, followed by myrcene, ocimene, caryophyllene, beta-pinene, limonene, pinene, alpha-terpinene, gamma-terpinene, humulene, eucalyptol, and nerolidol. This complex array of terpenes informs a distinct sensory experience, where the dominance of terpinolene provides a unique aromatic foundation that is nuanced by the supporting secondary and tertiary compounds.
This THC-dominant cultivar is engineered to induce effects characterized by creativity, uplifted moods, and euphoria. Consequently, the strain is well-suited for social interactions, focus-intensive tasks, and the pursuit of creative endeavors. Its genetic influence is confirmed through its notable offspring, La Bichota, which continues the lineage established by this selection.

PMC11060501: antinociception via NO/PGE2/TNF-α inhibition; associated with cerebral sativa profiles; least clinically characterised of major terpenes.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Antifungal, antiviral, decongestant; activates CB1/CB2 at 10–60% THC efficacy per Israeli receptor study (NORML 2025); highly volatile (bp 50–66°C); limited clinical data.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
