The indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain Purple Alien OG produces harvest-ready buds that are shaped like spades and olive green in color with lovely dark purple hues. Its scent and flavor are reminiscent of sweet herbs, pine, and citrus.

Its THC levels range around 12-14% on average. After consumption, cerebral effects become apparent that uplift the spirits and grant the consumer energy. However, it can be hard to focus as thoughts drift away, relieving one of pain and stress. The cerebral high is then accompanied with a body buzz that warms the arms and legs, sometimes creating a couch-lock and making this strain best used at night. Reviewers have noted its ability to relieve mild depression, insomnia, and nausea.

Negative effects of this strain include dizziness, paranoia and sometimes headache if too much is consumed at once.

It takes Purple Alien OG between eight and nine weeks to fully flower. Growers will enjoy this strain’s ability to be grown in diverse environments such as greenhouses, indoors, and even outdoors.
