Alien Rock Candy
Also known as: Alien Candy
Overview
Alien Rock Candy by Alien Genetics is an indica-dominant hybrid created through crossing Sour Dubble and Tahoe Alien strains. This strain typically features a 60/40 indica to sativa ratio, though some sources list it as 80% indica/20% sativa. The strain was expertly bred by the renowned team at Alien Genetics, representing a careful selection to achieve remarkable flavor and effects. This bud is extremely rare but still infamous for its sweet fruity yet mind meltingly sour flavor that's almost like having a Sour Warhead candy or five. The flowers aren't visually impressive but are sticky, covered in silver resinous trichomes, with dense and small buds arranged in a popcorn-like formation and forest green leaves with rust-colored pistils. The strain's unique aesthetic and potency have made it a sought-after variety among both recreational and medical cannabis users, particularly valued for its balanced effects and distinctive candy-like flavor profile.

Growing Information
Alien Rock Candy finishes around 8 weeks (56 days) into its flowering cycle and is a good choice for both novice and expert growers alike. Indoor cultivation produces yields of 1.31-1.64 oz/ft² (400-500 gr/m²) with a flowering time of 8-10 weeks, while outdoor plants can yield 17-19 oz per plant (500-550 gr). Due to its indica genetics, the strain requires more vertical space and can grow up to 6 feet, preferring a Mediterranean climate with temperatures between 69.8 and 80.6°F (21-27°C). The strain is excellent for beginner growers, can be cultivated indoors and outdoors, requires little care once established, and is more resistant to mold due to resinous trichomes. It shows high resistance to pests and diseases, making it ideal for those seeking a robust strain that doesn't require constant attention.
