Xfile
Also known as: X-File, X File
Xfile Strain Overview
Xfile is a relatively rare hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2000s, though its exact origins remain somewhat obscure within cannabis breeding circles. The strain is believed to have been developed by crossing two potent parent strains, resulting in a balanced hybrid that offers both cerebral and physical effects. Its name references the popular television series 'The X-Files,' suggesting mysterious or unusual characteristics, though this appears to be more of a marketing reference than an indication of particularly unique genetics.
Visually, Xfile plants typically produce dense, resinous buds with a mix of deep green and purple hues, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The buds are usually medium to large in size and have a frosty appearance due to a generous coating of trichomes. The strain's aroma profile is complex, combining earthy and pine notes with subtle citrus undertones, while the flavor upon consumption tends to be smooth with a slightly sweet aftertaste.
Xfile is known among users for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to body relaxation. The strain has gained a small but dedicated following among experienced cannabis consumers who appreciate its versatile effects profile. Due to its relative rarity, comprehensive information about Xfile's exact genetic lineage and breeding history is limited, and it is not as widely available as more mainstream commercial strains.

Xfile Strain Growing Information
Xfile is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically have a flowering time of 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready by mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plants tend to be medium in height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though they perform particularly well in controlled indoor environments. Xfile prefers a stable climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity levels. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and mold, especially during the flowering stage when the dense buds develop. Some training techniques like topping or low-stress training can help maximize yields and light penetration.
