Also known as: Alien Glue OG
Alien Glue Strain Overview
Alien Glue is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the crossbreeding of Alien Kush and Gorilla Glue #4. This combination brings together the potent indica characteristics of Alien Kush, known for its heavy resin production and relaxing effects, with the award-winning hybrid Gorilla Glue #4, celebrated for its high THC content and sticky trichome coverage. The strain gained popularity among cultivators and consumers for its balanced effects and robust growth characteristics.
The plant typically displays dense, conical buds with a thick coating of milky-white trichomes that give it a frosty appearance. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to purple hues, often accentuated by vibrant orange pistils. Alien Glue's buds are notably sticky to the touch, a trait inherited from its Gorilla Glue #4 parentage, making it challenging to handle without proper tools. The strain's aroma combines earthy, pine, and diesel notes with subtle citrus undertones.
Alien Glue is recognized for its balanced hybrid effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation. The strain has gained particular attention in the cultivation community for its resin production and adaptability to various growing environments. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Alien Glue has developed a dedicated following among enthusiasts who appreciate its combination of potency and manageable cultivation requirements.

Alien Glue Strain Growing Information
Alien Glue is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for intermediate growers. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be regulated. Plants typically reach medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plant is sensitive to overfeeding during flowering.
