Alf
Overview
Alf is a super rare indica-dominant hybrid strain created through crossing Animal Pie (an Animal Cookies and Cherry Pie hybrid) and Black Raven (White Fire Alien OG x '09 Cookies) from The Captain's Connection. The strain exhibits 70% indica dominance, making it well-suited for evening use and relaxation. Alf buds are characterized by their purple crystal-coated appearance, featuring lumpy light green nugs with purplish undertones, furry amber hairs, and a thick frosty coating of bright white trichomes. This strain is considered super rare and the parent Black Raven is described as near impossible to find. Flowering typically occurs over approximately 60 days, and the strain has gained recognition among cannabis enthusiasts for its unique combination of effects and exceptional visual appeal. The strain's rarity and distinctive genetics make it a prized find among collectors and connoisseurs seeking premium cannabis experiences.

Growing Information
The plant retains the typical structure of many indicas – short and stout, with nutrients redirected to branches that grow wider each week. Alf may be grown both indoors and outdoors but requires experienced cultivation. Flowering time is approximately 60 days, with some sources indicating 9-12 weeks for flowering to begin. Growers should provide ample space between plants for lateral growth and regular trimming is necessary to prevent mold and mildew in high humidity conditions. Trimming helps regulate height and removing unnecessary plant matter, while stalk support may be needed against strong winds. The strain requires careful attention to environmental conditions and is recommended for experienced cultivators due to its specific growing requirements.
