What strain is Xeno?

Xeno is an indica‑dominant hybrid (≈60% indica / 40% sativa), bred by Alien Labs from Zkittlez × Kush Mints genetics. It delivers fruity sweetness and terpene-rich diesel flavor with a calming yet uplifting experience.


Flavor, Aroma & Terpene Profile

Xeno’s sensory profile stands out:

  • Flavor & Aroma: Sweet tropical fruit (grapefruit, apricot, tree fruit) with a minty, tangy diesel aftertaste

  • Dominant Terpenes: Limonene and Linalool for citrus and floral layers, with Caryophyllene providing spicy undertones

  • Appearance: Light‑green, resin-coated buds with vibrant orange hairs and trichome frost


Effects & User Experience

Xeno hits with a balanced, relaxing high:

  • Start with cerebral lift—euphoria, creativity, focus

    Gentle body calm kicks in—ideal for winding down without full sedation

  • Reported effects: Sleepy, relaxed, aroused, happy—often used for insomnia, stress, and muscle spasms

Reddit users rave:

“Starts strong then melts into full-body relaxation… creeping comfort that lasts.”
“Xeno is fire—sticky, grapefruit-nosed, deeply relaxing.”


Potency & Medical Uses

  • THC: Typically 18–23%, with some rare batches hitting 26–30%

  • CBD: Negligible

  • Common medicinal uses: Chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, stress, depression, muscle spasms


Is Xeno indica or sativa?

Xeno is indica‑dominant (≈60% indica). While it starts with an energizing onset, most users experience relaxation deepening into night—making it great for evening use. AllBudLeafly


Grower Notes: How to Grow Xeno Strain

Xeno is relatively approachable for growers:

Detail Metric
Flowering Time 8–9 weeks indoors; outdoors: mid‑Sept to early Oct
Indoor Height Compact — ~80–120 cm
Outdoor Height Up to 200 cm
Yield Indoor: 350–450 g/m²; Outdoor: 500–700 g/plant

This strain thrives in warm, Mediterranean-style climates. Low-stress training (LST) and proper airflow help maximize trichome production and reduce mold risk.


⭐ Why Xeno Is a Standout Strain

  • Rare, top-tier pedigree from Alien Labs

  • Bold flavor combining Zkittlez sweetness with Kush Mints’ diesel bite

  • Smooth, balanced effects from head to body

  • High THC with moderate duration (~2–4 hours)
