Papa Alien Bus
Also known as: PAB
Papa Alien Bus Strain Overview
Papa Alien Bus is a relatively rare hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from experimental breeding projects in the early 2010s. The strain combines genetics from two distinct lineages, resulting in a plant that exhibits characteristics of both its indica and sativa heritage. Breeders aimed to create a strain with unique terpene profiles while maintaining potent effects, leading to this particular genetic combination. The strain remains somewhat obscure in mainstream cannabis circles but has developed a following among connoisseurs and home growers interested in its distinctive properties.
The physical characteristics of Papa Alien Bus plants typically include dense, resinous buds with a complex coloration pattern that often features deep purple hues mixed with vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are usually covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The leaves tend to be broad with some serration, reflecting its hybrid nature. The strain's name references its alien genetics combined with a bushy growth structure that makes it visually distinctive among hybrid varieties.
Notable features of Papa Alien Bus include its complex aroma profile and balanced effects. The strain is known for producing a cerebral uplift while maintaining physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day. Its rarity means that consistent phenotypes can be difficult to find, and different growers may report varying experiences with the strain. The genetic stability has improved over time through selective breeding, but some variation still exists between different batches and cultivation methods.

Papa Alien Bus Strain Growing Information
Papa Alien Bus is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late September to early October. Plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 4-7 feet outdoors. The strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors but prefers a controlled environment with stable temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C).
Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 14-18 ounces per plant in suitable climates. The strain benefits from regular pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training to manage its bushy growth pattern and improve light penetration. Papa Alien Bus is somewhat resistant to common molds and pests but requires good air circulation and humidity control during flowering (ideally 40-50% RH). Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers noting sensitivity to nitrogen during flowering.
