About Sour Alien
The Cali Connection crossed Sour Diesel with Alien Technology to build Sour Alien, a sativa-leaning hybrid at 70/30. The terpene profile runs deep, led by caryophyllene and myrcene, with linalool, pinene, humulene, caryophyllene oxide, limonene, ocimene, and eucalyptol all present in a genuinely extensive lineup that hints at real aromatic complexity. Flowering takes nine to ten weeks, a moderate-difficulty grow reaching 100-140cm indoors and returning 400-500 g/m2. THC tests around 16 percent, a moderate dose that puts the emphasis on terpene richness over raw potency. Sour Diesel's famously pungent fuel genetics and Alien Technology's own distinct lineage combine into a cross whose sheer terpene count suggests a smoke with a lot going on beneath the surface.
