Discover the specific nuances of the world's most demanded exotic cannabis strain. Compare the legendary cuts: Cannatique, Seed Junky, Runtz Crew, and Backpack Boyz.
Lemon Cherry Gelato (LCG) is a sophisticated hybrid phenotype derived from Sunset Sherbet crossed with Girl Scout Cookies (GSC) and an unknown third strain. It is renowned for its stability in hydroponic and living soil environments.
The strain exhibits high concentrations of Caryophyllene (spicy/diesel), Limonene (citrus), and Humulene (earthy). This creates the signature "gassy candy" nose that defines modern exotic cannabis.
LCG is a high-yielder for solventless extraction. Its trichome heads are often large and detach easily, making it ideal for Ice Water Hash and premium Live Rosin production with high returns on fresh frozen material.
| Strain Cut | Flowering Time | THC Range | Terpene Intensity | Flower Yield | Hash Yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cannatique | 8-9 Weeks | 28-30% | High (Candy) | Heavy | 4-5% |
| Seed Junky BX2 | 8 Weeks | 30%+ | Med-High (Gas) | Massive | 5-6% |
| Runtz Crew | 9 Weeks | 26-29% | Very High (Fruit) | Medium | 3-4% |
| Backpack Boyz | 8-9 Weeks | 29-32% | High (Zesty) | Heavy | 4-5% |
The Cannatique cut is often cited as the "Bag Appeal King." It produces dense, purple-hued buds completely coated in trichomes. This phenotype leans heavily into the sweet, creamy gelato profile with a distinct lemon zest finish.
J-Beezy and the Seed Junky team created the BX2 (Backcross 2) to stabilize the highest potency traits. This is the production grower's choice. It offers unmatched vigor, resistance to stress, and consistently tests over 30% THC.
The Runtz Crew brings their legendary "candy gas" expertise to this cut. While slightly lower in yield than the Seed Junky version, the terpene profile is unmatched in complexity. This is the connoisseur's smoke.
The cut that likely popularized the strain globally. The Backpack Boyz cut balances heavy yield with the signature LCG aesthetic. It features dark purple leaves and neon orange hairs, creating a visually stunning canopy.
