X-File
Also known as: X-Files
What is the X-File strain?
X-File is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and berry and citrus flavor profile.
X-File is a rare sativa-dominant hybrid strain created through a potent three-way cross of Sour Diesel, The Mask, and Purple Drank. The strain was bred by Pheno-Type Seeds, founded in Central Oregon. X-File produces foxtail-shaped bright neon green buds with amber undertones, fiery orange hairs, and a super sticky coating of sweet syrupy resin. The flowers are densely packed with resin featuring dark green buds with purple calyx hues followed by big broad yet elongated leaves that turn purple as well.
The strain inherits a strong tangy flavor with buds that grow dense like its Sour Diesel parent. X-File has a sweet citrusy flavor with hints of sour berries and grapes on exhale, while the aroma is super diesel and spicy with a lavender berry grape effect that's released as the nugs are broken apart and burned. This hybrid cannabis strain is well-balanced between its indica and sativa effects, causing the consumer to feel otherworldly, with buds that emit a smell reminiscent of diesel and a taste similar to grapefruit.
