What is the Alien Technology strain?
Alien Technology is a pure Afghan indica landrace that the US breeder Obsoul33t worked with and used as the foundation of the "Alien" family of strains. SeedFinder records 33 direct descendants, including Alien Kush, Alien Gorilla Glue and Alien Chocolate. Reported THC runs from about 13% to 19% with very little CBD, the plants flower in roughly 8 to 9 weeks, and the buds are known for a spicy, earthy, cedar-and-hash aroma and a quick, calming indica effect.
SeedFinder lists Alien Technology as a pure Afghan indica landrace.
SeedFinder lists 33 direct Alien Technology descendants, which makes regular seeds of it a natural starting point for breeders.
Alien Technology strain specs
Obsoul33t never published grow numbers for Alien Technology, so the THC, timing and yield below come from the Seeds66 version on SeedFinder, Leafly and AllBud. Because these are regular seeds from a landrace line, expect more variation from plant to plant than with a modern feminized hybrid.

Where does the Alien Technology strain come from?
Alien Technology is described by its breeder, Obsoul33t, as a pure landrace from a small village in Afghanistan, brought to the United States by an American soldier. Obsoul33t grew the seeds out and compared the frosty result to "the white". That soldier story is the only origin account in circulation, and the exact village or valley has never been named, so it stands as the breeder's account rather than a confirmed history.
What is well documented is the line's influence. SeedFinder lists 33 direct Alien Technology descendants, and the strain sits in the family trees of Alien Kush (Las Vegas Purple Kush × Alien Technology from Alien Genetics), which in turn fathered Alien OG. Seeds66 later released a feminized version from a clone of the line, and SeedFinder notes that Obsoul33t's own Alien Technology was never offered as feminized seed.
Why buy Alien Technology as regular seeds?
Regular Alien Technology seeds give you the male plants that breeders need, plus a wider spread of females to choose a mother from. Because this landrace became breeding stock for so many Alien crosses, growers who want to make their own Alien Tech hybrids start with regulars. Feminized seeds are simpler for a one-off harvest, but they cannot supply pollen from a true male.
About half of regular seeds turn out male. Start roughly twice as many Alien Technology seeds as the females you hope to flower, and check the plants for pre-flowers before you commit them to the flowering room.
What does Alien Technology taste like, and how does it feel?
Aroma and flavor
Alien Technology smells spicy and earthy, like cedar wood and old-school hash, and the Seeds66 listing adds a sweet, almost vanilla aftertaste. Leafly reviewers also pick out woody and fruity notes, and Seed King mentions a faint fuel edge.
- Spice
- Earth
- Cedar
- Hash
- Vanilla
- Fuel
Terpenes
- Myrcene
- Earthy, musky base typical of Afghan indicas
- Pinene
- Woody, resinous pine note
- Caryophyllene
- Peppery spice behind the hash aroma
Leafly lists these three Alien Technology terpenes; no breeder lab profile has been published.
Reported effects
People who have tried Alien Technology mostly describe it as relaxing, happy and euphoric, with effects that arrive quickly. A few sources, including Seed King, say it feels livelier than a typical Afghan indica at first before the body calm takes over.
- Relaxed
- Happy
- Euphoric
- Calm
- Sleepy
With Alien Technology, the side effects people mention most are a dry mouth and, now and then, an anxious edge.
This Alien Technology effect summary draws on Leafly and AllBud reviews and on Seeds66 and Seed King descriptions. People react in their own ways, and nothing here is medical advice.
How do you grow Alien Technology seeds?
Alien Technology seeds grow into compact, easy Afghan-type plants: start several seeds, sex them during late veg and pull the males (or keep one for breeding), then flower the females for about 8 to 9 weeks.
- Germinate3–7 days
Pop a few extra Alien Technology seeds, since roughly half of a regular pack grows into males.
- Vegetate4–6 weeks indoors
By weeks 4 to 6, look at the nodes for pre-flowers: small pistils mean female, small round sacs mean male. Separate males before the sacs open.
- Flower8–9 weeks
Move the females to 12/12. Alien Technology stretches modestly and packs on dense, frosty buds that need good airflow late in bloom.
- HarvestDay ~58–63 indoors · late Sep–early Oct outdoors
Judge ripeness by the trichomes; Afghan lines often turn amber fast in the final week.
Grow tips for Alien Technology
- Sex your plants early. Regular Alien Technology seeds produce males, and a single male left to shed pollen will fill every female's buds with seeds. Check every node in late veg and remove or isolate males the day you spot them.
- Keep the best female as a mother. Landrace seeds vary. Take cuttings from each female before flowering, then keep a clone of the one with the best resin and aroma.
- Save a male only if you plan to breed. Choose a vigorous, short-noded Alien Technology male, flower him in a separate space, and collect pollen to cross onto a female of another strain.
- Watch humidity on dense buds. Afghan indicas grow tight, chunky flowers. Keep humidity near 40–45% in late flower to limit bud rot.
- Control the smell. Alien Technology's spicy hash aroma gets strong in bloom, so run a carbon filter indoors.
- Use a SCROG for an even canopy. Short Afghan plants fill a screen evenly, which helps a small Alien Technology grow reach the Seeds66 yield range.

What strains come from Alien Technology?
SeedFinder lists 33 direct descendants of Alien Technology, including Alien Kush, Alien Gorilla Glue, Alien Chocolate and Alien Cheese. Alien Kush, made with Las Vegas Purple Kush, is the father side of the popular Alien OG.
Do Alien Technology regular seeds produce males?
Yes. Expect around one Alien Technology seedling in two to turn out male. Growers spot them by the small pollen sacs that form at the nodes in late veg and remove them, unless they want to collect pollen for breeding.
How much THC does Alien Technology have?
Reported THC for Alien Technology ranges from about 13% to 19%, with Leafly listing around 14% and CBD near 0.3%. Regular landrace seeds vary from plant to plant, so individual results differ.

How much does Alien Technology yield?
Seeds66 lists about 400 to 500 g/m² indoors for its Alien Technology line. Obsoul33t never published yield figures, and regular landrace plants vary, so selecting a strong female matters more than with uniform hybrids.

WOW, this weed is insanely potent! If you’re not careful, this stuff can knock you off your feet, so proceed with caution, particularly if you’re a newbie to marijuana. Alien Technology Reg relatively simple to cultivate and grow, though the yield isn’t as high as one would hope. I got about 400 grams per plant, which isn’t bad. It tastes earthy, tropical, and fruity. I enjoy smoking this in the evening because it provides a well-balanced buzz with a strong indica component. So it will undoubtedly help with pain and tension. Furthermore, I will likely recommend this to my colleagues!
Forrest Vang –
With Alien Tech reg, you’ll be able to travel to the farthest reaches of the universe! It’s insanely potent stuff, man! Whoa, that caught me off guard, so well, I usually just take one hit at a time. But it’s weird stuff; it smells like earth and spice, and the flowers do have orange and white whiskers that make things appear like little alien creatures from another planet. Smoking this is very energizing, but it has a crash, so, as I previously said, a little goes a very long way.
I’m looking forward to purchasing more!
Stephanie Shepard –
If you want to try something new, start smoking Alien Tech reg!! After a few joint hits, I had experiences I couldn’t believe. You may also want to have a notepad nearby so you can recall what came to mind later. I had the impression that I could see things from a different viewpoint, giving me a fresh outlook on my life. This weed is genuinely enlightening and soothing that washes away the pain and worries I felt. Very tasty and appetizing at the same time! I suggest you give this perfect weed a shot and see what new perspectives you can get!
Larry Wagner –
I’m in love with this shit! It’s the perfect blend of Indica and Sativa, with a flavor and aroma of tropical goodness that transports me to the jungle! I grew this in my backyard and had a lot of success that I wasn’t expecting! With these bright green nugs that appear in just a few months, plants become extremely tall and bushy! It’s ideal for kicking it with friends, playing video games, or simply watching TV before bedtime. It won’t lock you in your sofa, but it won’t send your mind into overdrive either. This is a fantastic pot to smoke at any time!
Tuan Wood –
This stuff is definitely out of this world to smoke, and it’s perfect for unwinding or even doing some creative writing or drawing. I consider myself extremely lucky to have grown all for myself, as I have these delicious buds that are dense and pretty resinous. It is pretty potent and harsh to my throat, but in the end, I got used to its potency! Intense flavors of herbs and spices are dominating my tongue!
Johnny Turner –
This pandemic really stressed me out! But I was thankful I got this Alien Tech, this strain really gave me a clear head when I used it. And this strain took all my worries and stress away. When I planted this strain I always had a positive feeling to harvest good products, and I DID! With all the efforts and training I have given this plant, it was all worth it. Oh! it also has very tasty spicy and herbal flavors.
Damon Scott –
In my case, Alien technology was a success. It was quick and easy cultivating this since it was also the best strain option for beginners like me, I enjoyed the very organic pungent spicy and herbal taste. The effects were soothing and refreshing. 5 Stars!
Henry Hutchinson –
I like this Alien Technology Marijuana because it can yield massively! My friend and I takes time to produce some strain but this one is exceptional! In just 10 weeks we cultivate and harvested bunch of Alien Tech, it really responds well to the nutrients and some LST done. The effects is promising! and the smell and taste of spice and earthy is very addicting! The potency of this strain embodies within! Love it! Try this one!
Phil J. –
As a writer, I use weeds to help me do my job. And I find Alien Technology very helpful to me and gave me mental clarity. It never gave me hard time to grow them in an outdoor setting. Glad to have found this on Beever Seeds’ site. Thanks for these great quality seeds and for fast delivery.
Zerbino Baron –
That is a top quality strain.It was my first Alien Technology, it continued astounding me and the smell showed signs of improvement and better, this weed is useful for day and evening. Useful for rest as well, yet in addition great as a solid daytime weed.
