Information about Sour Alien:
People expect a lot of things from a particular strain. From its cultivation to its fragrance and most importantly, to its effects. It is also essential for users to know if it suits their taste. Hence, when looking at possible hybrids to use, much is expected from those that descended from well-respected and sought-after lineages such as Sour Alien.
The Cali Connection used two of their prominent strains in developing Sour Alien. One of their motivations is to come up with a hybrid that does not reflect the classic traits of cannabis with regards to not only its appearance but also its effects.
First of the parent strains used is Alien Kush, a child of Las Vegas Purple Kush (LPVK) and Alien Dawg. It is an Indica-dominant strain that is well-known for mental and body buzz. Also, it tends to slowly creep into the body and leave users definitely feeling out of this world.
The other strain used is Sour Diesel, a hybrid that is known to keep its users beyond contented with the remarkable high that it delivers. Due to that, it is considered by many in the cannabis scene as legendary.
Through a careful process of selection and breeding, The Cali Connection finally released Sour Alien. For the users, it is a hybrid that starts off with a reinvigorating high before bringing one to deep relaxation. And, for the medical users, it is one strain that does not only relieve stress but also take away pains and aches.
