All About Alien OG Weed Strain
THC

Potency
Tahoe OG and Alien Kush are the parent strains of Alien OG Kush, which makes it a hybrid Indica-Sativa strain. It gets its lemony flavor from its parents, then the woody and citrus aroma that announces this Kush's presence once a jar is opened. The range of THC in this strain is 14% to 17%, and the effects are more cerebral than they are felt in the body.
A Review of Strain Effects
Just like its parent strains, Alien OG weed has the ideal cerebral effect that makes it great for a joint to smoke during a walk or when you are about to have candid conversations. The effects of Alien OG are instant at first, but they also intensify over time. Its effects last long, so you want to ease into it even when you feel as though you are yet to hit your preferred high. A headrush is experienced at first, followed by a tingly feeling that relaxes your body before it lulls you into a peaceful space. This quality makes it ideal for long, stimulating conversations and activities that require you to be in the zone.
Thanks to the euphoric feeling it brings users, this strain is ideal for treating depression, anxiety, and stress. It also relieves chronic pain and nausea, and even insomnia when taken in slightly higher doses.
Growers' Tips
New growers may want to give this one a pass until they have mastered the art since it is relatively difficult to grow. The bushes are usually dense since the plant doesn't grow too tall. The taller leaves will require trimming to ensure the lower bottom branches receive adequate sunshine.
The root system of this plant is a little troublesome and may require some help to develop while it is still in its earliest stages of growth. Lots of nutrients and potting with rockwool are essential at the beginning as they will determine the yield. The good thing is that your effort is rewarded with a good yield. The seeds are easy to buy online too. You get to see the first flowers in 8 to 9 weeks.
