Killian is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from NYC Diesel lineage. This strain has been engineered for high production, exhibiting a moderate cultivation difficulty that allows it to thrive in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this variety, which completes its flowering cycle in 66 days.

The terpene profile of Killian is led by a complex, layered chemical composition starting with dominant myrcene, followed by terpinolene, caryophyllene, humulene, and bisabolol. These primary compounds are supported by secondary and trace notes of limonene, nerolidol, linalool, caryophyllene-oxide, beta-pinene, camphene, p-cymene, and pinene. This diverse range of aromatic compounds creates a distinct olfactory experience defined by the specific order of these dominant, secondary, and tertiary constituents.

Users of Killian report effects characterized by a sense of euphoria, uplifted mood, and heightened creativity. Given these attributes, the strain is well-suited for social interactions and tasks requiring sustained focus. This THC-dominant profile has contributed to the development of further genetics, as identified in its notable offspring, Toxic Blue.
