Alien Rift

Originally cultivated by Ocean Grown Seeds, Alien Rift is an Indica-dominant hybrid made from a three-way cross between Alien OG, Alien Dawg, and Alien Abduction. Many cultivators have grown this Indica, and it generally tests between 20-24% THC with our review batch from testing at just over 20% THC.

Alien Rift has an earthy yet tangy lemon and pine aroma, with some subtle spiciness, and a touch of ammonia. The flavor is similar to lemon-pine cleaner, and leaves a peppery aftertaste.

The long and fluffy oval-shaped Alien Rift buds have tightly coiled lime-green leaves, interspersed with long orange pistils. A coat of gold trichomes covers the buds fully, lending an overall desert-brown color to the nuggets.

Alien Rift reportedly leaves a pleasant, yet not overwhelming, psychoactive euphoria for many users who describe experiencing a stimulated imagination. The highest marks were earned in the easing of physical aches and pains, most notably chronic arthritis and cramps. The soothing body buzz is most likely the result of the dominant terpene, Beta-Myrcene, taking its effect. These vegetative body effects seemed to act as a good precursor to bedtime, as reviewers appreciated a deeper and more restful sleep. One user reported how he was able to sleep longer than usual. While a longer, more restful sleep is often desired, many suggest taking note and preparing accordingly to wake up on time.

Alien Rift is an Indica heavy blend of 3 Aliens strains that scored high in body effects, while maintaining a low rating in triggering anxiety. From these comments, its clear this hybrid may cause drowsiness and is probably best suited for evening consumption at home.
