Our Alien Technology, also known as 'Alien Tech', is a pure Indica strain from Afghanistan. The origins of this rare landrace are unknown, but rumour has it that it was brought to America from Afghanistan by a US soldier. There it has made a name for itself with gorgeous, bright green buds with purple highlights and a thick layer of glistening trichomes. The pleasantly relaxing buzz that comes from the pure Indica genetics and the ease of cultivation have also contributed to the popularity of this strain. With so many outstanding qualities, it is no wonder that this strain has been used to create many modern hybrids such as Alien Dawg and Alien Kush.
With an average THC content of 15-19%, Alien Technology offers a pleasant yet intense effect that can last up to 6 hours. The effect is mainly calming and relaxing. Despite the pure Indica genetics, the high starts with an invigorating sense of euphoria that gradually turns into a deep general relaxation. Many users report positive effects on stress, pain, anxiety and insomnia.
Alien Technology also scores with a unique taste experience characterised by spicy, earthy and slightly sweet notes. The aroma is reminiscent of a mix of pine and diesel, with a hint of strawberry. This complex aroma and delicious taste when smoked make Alien Technology a favourite among cannabis connoisseurs.
These feminised seeds from Alien Technology develop into beautiful plants both indoors and outdoors, requiring no special care and producing excellent results even in the hands of inexperienced growers. Due to the bushy growth of the plants, they usually only reach a height of 70-110cm indoors. During the 7 to 9 week flowering period, countless buds begin to sprout, creating a spectacular display of gorgeous bright green colours with purple highlights. Growers with a green thumb can look forward to yields of up to 500 grams per square metre of these beautiful flowers. Outdoors, in optimal conditions, this strain will grow into a mighty plant, reaching up to 170cm in height and producing fantastic yields of up to 700 grams per plant. Due to its robust genetics and origin, this strain can also be grown outdoors at higher altitudes and in cooler regions with shorter summers, such as Germany. In the northern hemisphere, plants are ready for harvest around mid to late September.
