Alien Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid that was first grown by The Cali Connection. It is a cross between Las Vegas Purple Kush and Alien Dawg, and it has medium THC levels of around 14%.
The plant is light green and the sticky flowers are covered with red and orange hairs and shiny trichomes. It will grow to a medium height and it is a strong plant, making it easy to grow both inside and outside. In terms of smell, there are hints of pine, herbs, earth and spice, and when smoked there is a mild citrus taste with a woody undertone.
One of the most appealing features of Alien Kush is that it is ideal for both recreational and medicinal use. Just one hit is usually enough to leave the brain feeling a bit trippy, almost like it was a sativa strain. The high then settles down leaving the body feeling very relaxed.
You can expect the high to last for roughly two hours, and you will experience feelings of happiness, relaxation and elation. Furthermore, it often opens up the mind to free flowing thoughts and creativity. Moreover, thanks to its ability to relax, it may help to sooth pains, headaches, and nausea. It will also increase appetite and improve your mood, making it popular with those who struggle with depression.
As noted, it can be grown both indoors and outdoors. The strain grows well in both hydro and soil, and will be aided by trimming and organic nutrients. The will produce an average yield of roughly 300g per square meter and it has a flowering time of eight to nine weeks.
