Kill Vampire by Supragenetics
Indica × Sativa
Kill Vampire is a hybrid cannabis cultivar developed by SupraGenetics, known for its resin production and complex terpene profile. This balanced indica/sativa mix offers a versatile effect profile that can adapt to different times of day and dosages, providing both mental clarity and physical comfort.
Appearance
Kill Vampire produces medium-dense, conical to spade-shaped buds with a calyx-forward structure that trim easily. The flowers are covered in a thick layer of trichomes, with capitate-stalked heads visible to the naked eye, especially on the sugar leaves. Pistils mature to a copper color, contrasting with lime-to-forest green bracts. Cooler night temperatures during late flowering can induce anthocyanin expression, resulting in deep plum or violet accents on the bract edges and sugar leaves in some phenotypes.
The buds feel tacky and resinous, indicating good trichome production. Solventless rosin yields from A-grade flower are often reported in the 18-23% range. The dried buds have a firm consistency without being overly hard, and the flower-to-stem ratio is favorable for post-harvest processing.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Kill Vampire is characterized by dark berry and black cherry notes, underpinned by peppered earth and a hint of citrus peel. Phenotypes often release a clove-like spice, with Myrcene contributing to a forest-floor depth. Grinding may reveal a subtle savory undertone, reminiscent of garlic-adjacent cultivars, without dominating the overall bouquet. The terpene intensity remains consistent during cure if humidity is properly maintained.
On inhale, the flavor profile features ripe berry layered with cracked pepper and a touch of cocoa husk, presenting a balance of sweet and savory notes. Limonene enhances the top notes, while Myrcene rounds out the mid-palate, creating a plush mouthfeel. The exhale is marked by a pepper-clove finish, often described as warming and slightly numbing. Vaporization at specific temperatures can accentuate citrus and berry flavors, while higher temperatures intensify spice and earth notes.
Effects
Kill Vampire is designed to provide a versatile effect profile that can adapt to the user's needs and dosage. It is reported to offer an initial period of mental clarity that smoothly transitions into physical comfort and relief. This hybrid effect aims to provide relaxation without significantly diminishing motivation, making it suitable for various times of day.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This cultivar is a THC-forward strain with minimal CBD content. The terpene profile is robust, frequently testing between 1.8% and 3.2% by dry weight in optimized conditions. The dominant terpenes are suggested to include Myrcene, Limonene, and Beta-Caryophyllene, with supporting terpenes such as Linalool and Humulene contributing to the complex aromatic and flavor profile. Occasional phenotypes may exhibit savory notes, potentially linked to sulfurous volatiles.
Growing
Kill Vampire is a hybrid cultivar that responds well to training techniques and is tolerant of various environmental conditions. It typically finishes flowering within 60–67 days, though some phenotypes may benefit from an additional few days to maximize color and resin maturity. Indoor yields are generally in the medium-high range when the plant is properly trained. The strain's resin production is substantial, making it suitable for both flower sales and solventless extraction.
The breeder aimed for a plant that is responsive to training and forgiving of minor cultivation errors, making it suitable for both experienced home growers and commercial facilities. Agronomically, it tolerates a range of EC values and shows visible responses to increased PPFD and CO2 during mid-flower stages.
Origins & Lineage
Kill Vampire was developed by SupraGenetics, a breeder recognized for focusing on resin production and intricate terpene complexity. While the specific parental lines are not publicly disclosed, the strain is the result of a contemporary polyhybrid breeding approach. The genetics are described as a balanced indica/sativa mix, aiming to combine traits for dense trichome formation, sturdy structure, and layered aromas.
