The Clementine Strain Overview

Clementine is a Sativa-dominant hybrid strain (70% Sativa and 30% Indica). First created by cannabis breeders Crockett Family Farms, Clementine is a mixture of Tangie x Lemon Skunk, resulting in citrusy and tangy flavors that are perfect for any sweet tooth.


This strain is known for being used as remedies for many chronic health issues, such as lack of appetite, anxiety, nausea, fatigue, and depression.


Similarly, the Clementine strain is excellent for boosting energy, gaining focus, and feeling euphoric. As a result, it’s one of the top cannabis strains for increasing your body’s energy levels.


The 2015 Cannabis Cup in Michigan awarded a concentrated live resin of Clementine second place in the best Sativa category. Clementine is also easy to grow due to its robust resistance to common molds and mildew.
