The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s.

However, South Dakota’s journey toward cannabis legalization has been anything but straightforward.

Ive grown many lemon strains trying to find my preferred flavor profile. But nothing had hit that sweet spot until this Lemon Bubblegum by 34 Mongrels Genetics. As mentioned in Part I, Lemon Bubblegum is a cross of Lemon Skunk and Indiana Bubblegum that was then backcrossed with the Lemon Skunk. And its one of my new favorite strains. The round light-green buds with bright-orange pistils flaring outward were extra sticky, leaving a smell of lemon skunk on the fingertips with each touch.
