Cannabis Clone Plant | Alien OG

Hybrid

A clone is a cutting from a mature cannabis plant that has been rooted to create a new plant. Cloning is beneficial because it allows growers to maintain identical genetics for each harvest and ensure that plants are always female.

These clones will be delivered to the store approximately 2 weeks after ordering. Customers will be notified when the clones arrive and can pick them up at their soonest convenience. NO CLONES ARE IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE IN-STORE.

General:

Although it has roots in California’s very own OG Kush, Alien OG is an out-of-this-

world strain with a reputation all its own. This sativa-leaning hybrid was created by

seed company The Cali Connection as a cross between Tahoe OG Kush (itself a

phenotype of the original OG Kush) and Cali Connection’s very own indica Alien

Kush. Alien OG offers a soaring psychedelic high with roughly equal parts cerebral

stimulation and and physical relaxation. Alien OG’s THC content can range from 20%

to as much as 28%.

Buds of Alien OG are packaged as small, nugget-like clusters. Although the flowers

often have a dense, compact bud structure, some phenotypes lean more sativa and

have looser, fluffier leaves. The leaves themselves appear light green and are offset

by orange to vibrant red pistils, which are structures that allow the female plants to

catch pollen for fertilization. As evidenced by their high THC content, flowers of Alien

OG are resinous, covered in trichomes that make them appear moist and frosty.

Like parent strain Alien Kush, Alien OG has certain mind-bending properties that

make it an attractive strain for potentially trippy activities like nature walks, music

appreciation, or just intense conversation. Its great taste and balanced high make it a

welcome addition to the ever-expanding OG family.

Profiles:

This strain has a surprisingly sweet, citrus-like smell, with notes of lemon wafting up

from the cured buds. There are also more subtle notes of earth and fresh pine. When

combusted, flowers give off a more spicy, hashy scent typical of the OG family. The

smoke is lung-expanding but very smooth. Smokers may taste hashy incense and a

faint tang of ammonia on the exhale. This is one pungent strain, and its odor can

linger for a while after it’s smoked; this might not be the right choice for any smokers

trying to keep their consumption discreet.

Effects:

The high from Alien OG is said to come on quickly as a bracing pressure behind the

eyes. This head rush is accompanied by a sudden change in cognition, as thoughts

race in rapid-fire association. The intensity of this cerebral effect is often determined

by user’s set and setting or by their individual tolerance. In cases where a smoker is

able to comfortably settle into Alien OG’s altered state, the high can take on

psychedelic proportions: visual distortions like enhanced colors or peripheral flashes

can happen, as can the trippy sensation of time moving more slowly.

Physical relaxation sets in as the high progresses, or as users consume greater

amounts. This strain can be as energetic or as relaxing as smokers intend — as easily

enjoyed out among friends as it is vegging out alone. Alien OG’s well-rounded high

also lends itself to several medical applications.

Its euphoria can be a boost for those struggling with depression, while its ever-

present cerebral nature can be grounding and mindful for those with stress, anxiety,

or PTSD. Its palpable body stone, while not immobilizing, can be helpful in relieving

chronic aches and pains and even nausea. In high enough doses, Alien OG can even

be an effective means of banishing insomnia and lulling users into a deep, refreshing

sleep.

Because of its “racey” properties, however, this strain can sometimes lead to a kind of

paranoid, recursive thinking for smokers who are inexperienced or prone to anxiety.

Growing:

It is a moderately difficult grow, and may not be the best for newcomers to cultivation.

Better grown indoors than out, this strain is known to have trouble developing a root

system, and may require potting with rockwool and a significant amount of nutrients

when first planted. The short, bushy plants may also require topping, by trimming

large fan leaves in order to allow light and air to reach flowering nodes on the lower

branches. Alien OG flowers within 8 to 9 weeks when grown indoors and offers an

average yield.

Once they’ve harvested, growers should also take care to properly cure their flowers

to preserve this strain’s high composition of THC. Curing is a two-stage process that

involves first hanging flowers upside down for 7-10 days in a room with 50% humidity

and a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit; and then, once stems snap easily off

the flowers, sealing the buds in clean, airtight jars in a space that maintains 70

degree temperatures and 60-65% humidity.
