Brood X

Brood X is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Crickets and Cicada Seeds, a boutique breeder specializing in preserving rare genetics from the 1990s. Named after the 17-year cicada cycle, this strain represents a unique fusion of award-winning genetics combined with meticulous breeding practices. The strain was created by crossing Sensi Star, a legendary Paradise Seeds creation known for winning over 15 Cannabis Cups, with Lazy Dog, a complex three-way hybrid comprising Chemdog 91 x Pacific Northwest Hashplant x Northern Lights #1. This genetic combination produces plants that exhibit the compact, resin-heavy structure typical of indica-dominant varieties while maintaining balanced effects suitable for both recreational and medicinal applications.

Brood X plants display dense, conical buds characteristic of their indica heritage, with a mossy green coloration accented by rust-colored pistils and a thick coating of crystalline trichomes. The strain's appearance reflects its potent genetics, producing substantial resin coverage that makes it particularly valuable for concentrate production. Cultivation reports indicate the strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, with growers noting its relatively fast flowering time and robust structure that can support heavy bud development.
