Alien OG
An out-of-this-world indica-leaning hybrid crossing Tahoe OG with Alien Technology—renowned for its intense potency and classic piney fuel profile.
What is Alien OG?
Alien OG is a heavy-hitting masterpiece from The Cali Connection. By taking the iconic Tahoe OG and introducing it to the mysterious, landrace-derived Alien Technology, breeders created a strain that redefined "California Kush" for a new generation.
This cultivar is famous for its incredible resin production and a terpene profile that hits like a freight train of lemon-sol, pine needles, and jet fuel. Unlike some OG variants that can be finicky to grow, the Alien lineage adds a layer of structural stability and "extra-terrestrial" trichome density that makes it a favorite for both craft cultivators and extraction artists.
Terpene Profile
The Alien OG strain terpenes provide a pungent, multi-dimensional aroma. It starts with a sharp, astringent citrus note that quickly gives way to a deep, damp earthiness. It is one of the most recognizable "loud" scents in the cannabis world.
Growing Alien OG
Alien OG is a vigorous grower that displays the best traits of its parents. It tends to grow with the classic "OG stretch" during the first few weeks of flower, so vertical space management is key. It produces tight, rock-hard nuggets that are completely coated in a frost-like layer of resin.
