Alien Otto
Also known as: Alien OG Otto, Alien OG CBD
Alien Otto Strain Overview
Alien Otto is a high-CBD, low-THC cannabis strain developed specifically for therapeutic applications. The strain was created by crossing Alien OG with a high-CBD Otto phenotype, resulting in a plant that produces minimal psychoactive effects while offering significant cannabidiol content. This breeding effort was part of a broader movement to develop cannabis varieties with specific cannabinoid profiles for medical users who require symptom relief without intoxication.
The strain exhibits characteristics of both its indica and sativa lineage, typically growing to medium height with dense, resinous buds. The flowers are often light green with orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. Alien Otto's aroma profile combines earthy, piney notes with subtle citrus undertones, reflecting its terpene composition. The strain is particularly noted for its consistent CBD production, making it a reliable choice for those seeking predictable cannabinoid ratios.
Alien Otto has gained recognition within medical cannabis communities for its therapeutic potential. While documentation about its exact breeding timeline is limited, it emerged during the early 2010s as interest in high-CBD strains grew. The strain represents a deliberate departure from traditional high-THC varieties, focusing instead on maximizing CBD content while minimizing psychoactive effects. This makes it suitable for daytime use and for individuals sensitive to THC's intoxicating properties.

Alien Otto Strain Growing Information
Alien Otto is considered moderately easy to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are typically ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. The plant grows to a medium height of 3-4 feet indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors, making it manageable for most growing spaces.
Yields are moderate, with indoor growers typically harvesting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 14-18 ounces per plant. Alien Otto adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and maintain proper airflow to prevent mold, particularly in dense bud structures.
