Alien OG Kush
Also known as: Alien OG, Tahoe Alien
Alien OG Kush Strain Overview
Alien OG Kush, commonly known as Alien OG, is a potent hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing Tahoe OG and Alien Kush. Bred from Tahoe OG and Alien Kush, this strain is characterized as an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa). First available as a clone in California's Bay Area and now in seed form from Cali Connection, this strain has become renowned for its exceptional potency and complex effects profile.
The strain's lineage traces back to impressive genetics, with Tahoe OG Kush crossed with Alien Kush (Las Vegas Purple Kush x Alien Technology), where the Alien Kush male is Alien Technology-dominant. Alien Technology is a very special landrace Afghani strain that was brought back fairly recently by a U.S. soldier from an unnamed small village in Afghanistan. Alien OG buds have airy grape-shaped minty green nugs with olive leaves, thin orange hairs and a coating of frosty amber crystal trichomes. The buds are dense, compact with rich green hues and a frosty layer of trichomes that hint at its high THC levels.
This strain is highly sought-after for its unique blend of relaxing and euphoric effects, with THC levels ranging from 22% to 28%, making it unsuitable for beginners. Combined with its high 22-28% average THC level and 0-1% CBD level, beginners and novices should take it slow with this heavy-hitter. The strain has earned recognition as one of California's premium offerings, representing the pinnacle of OG Kush genetics through careful breeding and selection.

Alien OG Kush Strain Growing Information
Alien OG is considered suitable for intermediate to experienced growers due to its moderate cultivation difficulty. The strain grows well both indoors and outdoors, with a flowering time of 8-10 weeks (56-70 days). Indoor yields range from 400-450g/m² (1.31-1.47 oz/ft²), while outdoor plants can produce 400-600g per plant (14-21 oz). Plants typically reach heights of about 4.92 ft (1.5 m). The strain is resilient to cool, dry temperatures and has good pest resistance, though growers should monitor humidity levels during final flowering weeks as the dense flowers can trap moisture. Regular seeds produce both male and female plants requiring sexing, while feminized versions are also available from various breeders.
