Alien Sour Apple
Also known as: Alien Apple
Overview
Alien Sour Apple is a 50/50 hybrid strain created through a cross of the hugely popular Sour Apple x Alien Tech strains. Originally bred by Obsoul33t Genetics (formerly known as Franchise Genetics), this strain is part of the legendary Alien Technology lineage that traces back to a cultivar allegedly brought from Afghanistan by a US soldier. It is infamous among collectors and patients for its Granny Smith apple-like flavor and smell, featuring a sweet yet sour fruity apple bouquet with just a hint of earthy berry when the flowers are broken apart. The taste is of sour apple with a hint of sweetness and earth that intensifies as consumption continues.
This strain produces long, dense and super-dense spade-shaped bright neon green flowers with a spattering of fiery orange hairs and a thick frosty coating of chunky oversized milky white crystal trichomes. The buds are predominantly dark green with flashes of vibrant lime, with plants exhibiting a generous dusting of trichomes that reflect light, giving them a sparkling or almost otherworldly appearance. The Alien Sour Apple experience is fast-hitting with effects of both indica and sativa varieties, making it a versatile strain appreciated by both recreational users and medical cannabis patients seeking balanced effects.
