GROWERS TIP:
Alien strain grows in a tall plant, lanky and gorgeous but a little weak. You have to support Alien with stakes to keep the plant upright and prevent it from buckling. We recommend stakes at least three feet long for the best results. Cookies has a 21% THC average and provides a relaxing high. The taste is a product of several terpenes that create a full-bodied flavor of fruit, herbs, and nuts. Sabinene provides an orange-like flavor, Phellandrene the taste of plume and pine, Bisabolol a nutty dimension, and Humulene the herbal taste of earthy tea.

Jaws Gear Description

 

Alien Cookies is a descendant of the almighty Cookies family of cannabis strains. Bred in America by a low-profile breeder, Alien Cookies boasts pungent aromas, old-school flavors, and a happy, carefree stone. Keep reading to learn all there is to know about Alien Cookies.

History of the Alien Cookies Cannabis Strain

Alien Cookies is a cannabis strain created by Jaws Genetics (also known as Jaws Gear), a cannabis breeder with over 20 years of experience growing and breeding weed. While highly respected by many growers, Jaws is a fairly low-key breeder. Besides the odd forum and social media post, Jaws doesn’t have much of a digital footprint. Nonetheless, his strains have attracted a strong, almost cult-like following among breeders and growers.

Genetic Lineage of Alien Cookies

Animal Cookies is a hybrid strain bred from GSC and Alien Dawg.

 

GSC, formerly Girl Scout Cookies, is one of the most famous cannabis strains of the last decade. Bred by The Cookies Fam (the predecessor to the almighty Cookies cannabis brand), GSC introduced cannabis users to a whole new array of flavors and aromas. It produces light green flowers with an iconic aroma dominated by a sweet earthiness reminiscent of cookie dough, highlighted by contrasting notes of pine and mint. Its genetics come from OG Kush and F1 Durban—two A-grade strains in their own right. While it first hit the streets over a decade ago, GSC is still a highly sought-after strain loved by smokers from all walks of life.

 

Meanwhile, Alien Dawg (also known as Aliendawg and Alien Dog) is a hybrid strain descending from Chemdawg and Alien Technology. While the exact origins of Alien Dawg aren’t known, the strain has been attracting a growing body of smokers with its musky, sour aroma and soothing effects. Alien Dawg usually hits hard and fast, leaving users in a heavy state of bliss. Inexperienced smokers may need to take a nap after enjoying this heavy hybrid, while seasoned tokers will want to sit back on the couch and watch a good movie.

Physical Characteristics of Alien Cookies

Alien Cookies has all of the appeal of a good indica-dominant hybrid. The strain produces short and stout plants with brawny branches and luscious, dark green leaves. In bloom, Alien Cookies plants grow heavy with thick indica nuggets. As they mature, Alien Cookies plants may turn a deep, blackish purple. The ripe flowers boast out-of-this-world looks, featuring large, tight stacks of bulging calyxes, bright orange pistils, and a sugary coating of resin that gives the buds an almost metallic sheen under the light.

Properties and Effects of Alien Cookies

Alien Cookies, like other strains in the Alien lineage, boasts hard-hitting effects. On average, Alien Cookies flowers contain 20–24% THC, though some batches may be even stronger. Limonene, caryophyllene, and myrcene are all commonly found in Alien Cookies, though the strain may also contain humulene, linalool, pinene, and other common cannabis terpenes. Pick up and smell an Alien Cookies bud and you’ll enjoy a pleasant mix of fruity, sour, and vanilla notes. Break it apart with your hands or a grinder, however, and you’ll be greeted by a much stronger aroma of rose petals and lavender, ripe fruit, toasted vanilla bean, citrus, and fresh pine needles. Its flavor, on the other hand, is reminiscent of a good, old-school OG, soaking your taste buds in thick smoke/vapor with strong notes of citrus, pine, and earth. Some users also detect a peculiar licorice aftertaste when smoking Alien Cookies.

 

In terms of effects, Alien Cookies goes straight to the head. After just one or two tokes, you’ll experience a strong head rush that immediately elevates your mood, leaving you positive, happy, and stress-free. Soon after, you’ll be treated to a soothing body high that starts at the neck and back before reaching out into the extremities. Within minutes, you’ll be moving much more slowly, with droopy eyes and a big grin on your face. If you’re an experienced smoker, you should be able to cruise through simple work tasks like answering emails or household chores with a positive attitude while under the spell of this strong strain. Users with a lower tolerance, however, might want to enjoy Alien Cookies in the evenings and let its positive stone provide the perfect setting for a relaxing night and a restful sleep.

Uses of Alien Cookies

Alien Cookies has received very positive reviews from users of all types. For many, its relaxing yet not overwhelming buzz is perfect for afternoon or evening use, providing an elevated mood and overall positive vibes. Based on user reports, Alien Cookies pairs well with:

 

• Working from home
