Grow facts
Grow facts come from the breeder first, then seed banks and strain databases. With 2 sources we show the range and the middle; with 3 or more, the range and the median, after leaving out values far from the rest. The breeder's own value is the anchor, unless it is far from every other source (outside their range and more than 20% from their median); then we show the full range and the median of all of them. A fact from a single source is marked "1 source", and a fact no source lists is left out. Yields are converted to one unit: indoor per square meter, outdoor per plant.
CTU writes every profile from these facts; we do not copy other sites' descriptions. Values that are a generic default in the source data are left out. Last checked Oct 21, 2026.
Source: CTU strain dataset (public strain listings and breeder info, checked by CTU), verified Oct 2026. Potency, flavor and effects vary by grower, batch and plant. Facts no source lists are left out.

In public strain data, Khalifa Mints is classed as a hybrid credited to Compound Genetics. The parent strains on record are Khalifa Kush and The Menthol.
Public listings give Khalifa Mints a THC level of 18–23%, which is around the middle of the range. Compared with all strains in our research dataset that have their own THC figure, it is higher than roughly 50% of them. Potency varies by grower, batch and lab, so read these numbers as typical values, not guarantees.
People most often describe the flavor of Khalifa Mints as mint and earthy. The terpenes listed most often are limonene (citrus), linalool (floral, lavender-like) and caryophyllene (peppery, spicy). Limonene is the lead terpene for about 21% of the high-confidence strains in our dataset, so it is a less common lead. Terpenes shape smell and taste; their levels change from batch to batch.
People who have tried Khalifa Mints most often report feeling relaxed, euphoric, sleepy, happy and tingly. These are user reports, not promises. Effects differ from person to person and depend on dose, setting and tolerance.
