Dossier

History & sources

1. Summary

Alien OG is a Cali Connection seed strain of about 2010. Its parentage is recorded consistently, though the sources reach us only through Seedfinder and resellers:

  • Seedfinder's Cali Connection page: "Tahoe OG Γ— Alien Kush (Alien Tech Pheno Male)".1
  • North Atlantic Seed's Cali Connection listing: "Alien Kush Γ— Tahoe OG Kush S1", i.e. reversed order with a Tahoe S1. This is a variant or conflicting statement.2
  • Royal Queen Seeds sells a version as "Alien Kush Γ— Tahoe OG Kush".3

Seedfinder resolves Alien Kush as Las Vegas Purple Kush Γ— Alien Dog. Alien Dog descends from Obsoul33t's Alien Technology line.1 Some retail copy credits the Alien Kush male to the breeder Obsol33te. Cali Connection is credited with the cross.4 The parentage is therefore reported (consistent across secondary and reseller sources, but no breeder page could be read). The Cali Connection site blocks AI crawlers via robots.txt.5

2. Identity

  • Names/aliases: Alien OG, Alien OG Kush, Purple Alien OG and White Fire Alien OG (derivatives; see white-fire-og).6
  • Type as reported: balanced hybrid (RQS lists it at 50/50); 7.9–9.3 weeks (RQS) or 8.6–10 weeks (North Atlantic).32
  • Breeder: The Cali Connection (Swerve); the Alien Kush parent comes from the Alien Technology / Obsoul33t line.14
  • Propagation: seed (and clone selections).

3. Genetics & lineage claims

  • 3a. Tahoe OG Γ— Alien Kush (Alien Tech pheno male) β€” reported (Seedfinder breeder page).1
  • 3b. Alien Kush Γ— Tahoe OG Kush S1 β€” reported (reseller header for Cali Connection).2 This competes with 3a on order and on the S1.
  • 3c. Alien Kush = Las Vegas Purple Kush Γ— Alien Dog (Alien Technology line) β€” reported.14

4. Timeline and derivatives

  • 2013 β€” HT notes an Alien OG "Raw" extract by Jar Jar Binks.7
  • 2014 β€” Michigan Cup: Alien Dawg F2 (Herbal Solutions) 2nd Indica, 24.71% THC.8
  • 2014 β€” La Plata Labs DGOG = Alien OG Γ— Alien Bubba (HT Top 10 of 2014).9

6. Community sentiment

Little data was collected. It was a popular Nevada and Michigan market name in the 2015–2026 lab records.14 Overall score: not estimated. Reddit not sampled.

7. Open questions

  • Cali Connection's own Alien OG page (blocked); whether the Tahoe parent was the clone or an S1.
  • The breeder of Alien Kush (Obsoul33t vs others).
