About Kryptonite

In grower catalogs and dispensary menus, Kryptonite is documented as a indica cross combining Mendocino Purps and Killer Queen.

Photoperiod cuts typically finish flowering in 8–9 weeks (~56–63 days) under indoor or greenhouse lighting.
Aroma and flavor
Jars of Kryptonite are most often described as showing sweet, sugary notes, loud, room-filling pungency, crisp conifer pine and earthy, soil-like depth. Chemotype data points to earthy, herbal myrcene, peppery beta-caryophyllene and crisp, forest-like pinene as the primary aromatic drivers, with batch-to-batch variation depending on cultivation and curing.
