X-Files Feminised

Everything about X-Files at harvest follows from one decision, which is when you stop. The figures are Up to 300g/m² indoors and Up to 400 gr outdoors, with resin filling towards 22% THC. The 42/58 balance gives steady gain with a lift in the closing fortnight. Outdoors, aim to be finished by mid-October rather than hoping for a dry third week of it.

Three parts of the 63-70 days of bloom account for most of the difference between a good result and an average one on a plant rated Up to 300g/m² indoors and Up to 400 gr outdoors.

The stretch, days 1-10 after the flip. Canopy height set here decides how evenly light lands for the rest of the run. Around a third is usual. A single pass of training across the tallest shoots keeps the top flat.

Weeks three to five. Myrcene production climbs through this stretch and responds to a 6-8°C gap between lights-on and lights-off. Outdoors an Irish September provides that without help; indoors it has to be built, at roughly 25°C by day and 18-20°C at night. Bloom feed goes potassium-forward around EC 1.6-1.8.

The final fortnight. Feeding stops, plain pH-corrected water goes on, and the loupe comes out daily. Ten to fifteen per cent amber sits in the middle of its range. Outdoors, that falls between late September and mid-October, and the forecast gets a say.

Flowering: 63-70 days. Indoor yield: Up to 300g/m². Outdoor yield: Up to 400 gr. Plant height: Short. Rated easy difficulty.

The catalogue lists relaxed, happy, euphoric, and that matches what growers here report back. At 22% THC this hybrid sits where the balance is the argument for it. Small doses stay functional, larger ones relax properly, and the 42/58 split means the direction is set by the amount rather than fixed by the plant. The Myrcene and Limonene together leave earth and faint sweetness, with fruit at the end.

Suited to most occasions, with the dose doing the steering.

Primary: Myrcene · Secondary: Limonene · Tertiary: Pinene. Temperature decides how much of this profile survives. Low vaporisation at 180-188°C keeps limonene and pinene audible over the myrcene; run it hotter, or burn it, and all three collapse into one note that is pleasant enough and tells you nothing.

X-Files suits growers with the fundamentals in place. Understand pH, rough nutrient ratios and a light cycle before committing to it; it asks for competence rather than expertise. Photoperiod genetics leave plant size and harvest date under your control — veg longer for a bigger plant, or flip early when the ceiling is low. A bloom of 63-70 days fits inside the season here for outdoor growers, with a tunnel making it comfortable rather than tight.
