Dosing

Alien Stardawg has potent effects from the offset, and its intensity can be overwhelming for beginners or users sensitive to psychoactive substances.

Beginners should start with a strain at the lower end of the THC range and/or under the guidance and support of a friend. Thankfully, Alien Stardawg can occasionally contain moderate levels of THC at around 14%, so read the label and keep an eye out for lower THC percentages and a mixture of cannabinoids if you are sensitive to THC.

Growing

Alien Stardawg possesses the typical characteristics of sativa plants: tall with thin stalks that are feeble and may break easily in conditions like strong winds or heavy rain. It can be grown indoors and outdoors, but lengths should be taken to protect these plants from harsh conditions. These plants are great candidates for the “screen of green” growing method. Hydroponic setups will also improve the yield and trichome production of Alien Stardawg, but this is not a requirement as the plants also flourish in soil.

The strain’s buds are relatively small and light green with blue, red, and purple undertones. Each nug is often dusted with a coating of white crystal trichomes. Due to these factors, Alien Starwdawg best suits growers with at least some experience.
