Genetic Heritage - Alien OG (Cali Connection) x Breeding Auto OSS
Seed Type: F6 Feminised Automatic
Project introduction and Overview:
On the Mephisto quest to find and create the best auto-flowering OG based strains we have worked tirelessly for success. After trialing many OG varieties that we’d been amassing in our stable of photoperiod genetics we settled on just a few to utilise for our Mephisto projects, one of which was an Alien OG cut selected from Cali Connection seed stock. The Alien OG was small, slow to veg and not incredibly stretchy for an OG cultivar but the cut was truly distinct and lovely in it’s own right. Just oozing quality she was thick with white resin which was a stark and beautiful contrast to the leaves that showed deep purple colouration. Turned automatic over the next generations of inbreeding she took on a larger structure but has lovely thick glue-like resin and chunky, funky flowers.
Strain behavior and structure:
In good conditions our Ripley’s OG will grow large with full buds, encourage branching and you'll get multiple colas in return. She doesn’t have huge inter-nodal gaps and is easily manageable to attain a high yield. Ripley’s happily layers on the frosting to this sweet auto cake. Aroma is potent with a burnt rubber to meaty intensity. Will purple up under cooler environments like her original mother. Ripley’s OG also returned some of the highest lab results we’ve seen from customer tests - and she is also very consistent - 3 difffferent plants submitted for analysis were between 22-23% total cannabinoids. If grown indoors, large yields are possible per plant, or as an arrangement of multiple plants. Grown outdoor, she can monster in good conditions and produce 300g per plant.

Strain FAQ
How has hybridization and adaptation changed Kush strains?
Kush strains have adapted to change, blending their genetics to create new types. This hybridization has expanded the cannabis gene pool and tailored strains to specific needs.
When are the best sales on cannabis seeds?
Smart customers watch certain dates for seed offers! Seed sale Super Bowls are Black Friday and 4/20. These are great times to get seeds cheaply so be sure to check us out then!
Do auto-flowering strains need much light?
Auto-flowering strains excel in this area since they flower depending on age rather than light. They are said to be perfect for newcomers as they offer a simple experience and there is no need to tinker with light schedules to have them bloom.
Do greenhouse conditions affect the terpenes in cannabis?
Due to the controlled environment, legal greenhouse-grown cannabis plants are said to be optimal for terpene creation. These aromatic molecules give cannabis its particular aromas and flavours, and greenhouse factors like temperature and humidity are said to boost terpene levels.
Were Sativa strains ever used for anything other than getting high or medicine?
Sativas' capabilities go beyond just these two things. Their strong fibres have been used to make ropes, clothes, and paper. This shows just how varied and valuable the cannabis plant has been even before its more modern uses.
