Growing Lemon Drop
Growing Lemon Drop fits most US climates, the 8-9 week flower fits inside nearly every outdoor window from Florida to Maine. Lemon Drop is photoperiod, which means you control when it flowers by switching from 18/6 (vegetative) to 12/12 (flowering). Most indoor growers veg for 4-6 weeks before the flip. Indoor yields land around Moderate under quality LED, and outdoor plants given full sun and 5-7 gallon containers reliably produce Moderate. Expected plant height is Medium (5 to 8 FT), with intermediate cultivation difficulty. Practical tips that move the needle: flush nutrients in the final 10-14 days for cleaner flavor; trichomes finish properly even on plain pH-adjusted water; and top once at the 4th node to encourage 4-6 even main colas instead of one dominant cola. The most common challenge growers report is over-feeding nitrogen past week 1 of flower, switch to bloom nutrients within 7 days of seeing pistils.
