Franco’s Lemon Cheese…Cash grab or worthy tribute?

Have you grown out Franco’s Lemon Cheese?

Who’s familiar, what do you know about this cultivar?
Please share your personal experience.

Could GreenHouse seed Co have done better?

I would love to hear the OG communities thoughts on this one.

I have a couple currently in early veg, so I will be able to give updates on my own experiences as they progress also.

It does doesn’t it!
I remember watching Franco on strainhunters.
One of those strains I just have to see for myself.
Expecting disappointment, but hoping for the best. 🫡

Hey mate, yeah I have checked out a few grows.
Given the name attached to this strain. I Thought it would be cool to have a conclusion/ overview all in the same place. 🫡

Our good friend @Sebring grew some and sent it around a few years ago. Nice plants for sure.

Hey @Enjoi802 nice one. :point_up:
I wonder if they have been fairly stabilised or if there’s a certain pheno I should be hoping for.
Only managed to crack 2 out of the small pack I had.

I think there is always a bit of hit OR miss with these major European seed suppliers. with the exception of a few. but there is quite a lot of good information about this strain. also on other forums.

Good luck with your grow. I am currently also germinating 2 seeds for Greenhouse seeds, namely cloudwalker.

Update after many many runs….
It’s been a staple. Nice sized buds. Fairly frosty, stinky but really good kind of smell. Finally I’m getting a bit bored of it but it took a long time. Can confirm nice strain. :+1:t2:

His slh haze is supposed to be the cut to look for if you ever see her available

Alright :+1:t2: thanks for the heads up

I would NEVER buy anything from Arjan. His stunts all over the world with taking landrace seeds and leaving feminized indica crap is dispicable. To further compound the insult he then keeps all the landrace for himself and creates hybrid feminized seed so no one EVER will have a chance at those.

Yeah i think that’s a fair opinion.

U can still breed with femized gear though

Absolutely agreed.

Besides, their “breeding” work, if you can even call it that, is so bad that there is nothing they offer that can’t be gotten elsewhere just better.

Greenhouse is in the RQS tier for me in terms of what they offer.
Can you find good plants in there? Sure.
Can you find something worthy in a 10 pack and will it be what is advertised? Doubtful.

Does Greenhouse hurt “the game” or cannabis as a whole more than they do good for it? Abso-fucking-lutely.

Gh sucks bad these days since Franco passed imo. Tried several offerings all hit and miss. Stick to their hawaiian snow its the only good thing they still offer

I dunno mang, why would you?
Its not like they are the ONLY “breeder” with Hawaiian genetics?

I understand when n00bs fall prey to all the marketing and continue to give Sensi, DP, GH, RQS etc. a chance and buy from them.

But when you are in the know, why would you when there are others that offer better for less money? Or you could get F2s from a forum member and usually for free?

That Lemon Haze or Silver or Super Lemon Haze from GH keeps popping up.
Really, in 2025 you would still buy from 'em and give 'em a chance?
Sure Mr Nice for example doesn’t have a “Lemon Haze” per se in their lineup but before I give GH money and have to hunt throgh 2-3 packs to find what is actually advertised and worth to keep, I might as well run through 2-3 Mr Nice packs of SSH or NLxHaze or whatever until I find my Lemon pheno.

The difference is I will spend less at Mr Nice and find other worthy keepers along the way, while the GH gear is likely to only yield that one good pheno to keep, if that.

And that doesn’t even consider ethical business practices etc. and not supporting someone like Arjan.
