Seven Ghost by Alien Genetics
Indica-dominant genetics
Seven Ghost, bred by Alien Genetics, is an indica-dominant strain with a rich history rooted in underground breeding practices from the late 1980s and early 1990s. It is recognized for its potent indica genetics, robust growth, and a complex sensory profile.
Appearance
Seven Ghost buds are typically dense and compact, reflecting their indica heritage. They often display deep green coloration, sometimes with purple undertones, especially when exposed to temperature fluctuations. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a sticky, shimmering appearance, further enhanced by vibrant orange pistils.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Seven Ghost is a captivating blend, beginning with a pungent earthiness reminiscent of damp soil, layered with subtle floral sweetness and spice. Upon inhalation, notes of citrus and pine emerge, while the flavor profile delivers a robust earthiness and woodsy spice, transitioning to sweet, fruity, and cherry-like notes on the exhale, with a lingering creamy aftertaste.
Effects
This strain is known for inducing a sense of calm and relaxation, often accompanied by an uplifted mood. While predominantly indica, it can provide an energetic yet tranquil experience. Its effects are generally attributed to its high THC content and specific cannabinoid and terpene profiles.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Seven Ghost typically exhibits THC levels ranging from 20-25%, with minimal CBD content below 1%. While specific terpene data is not fully detailed, common terpenes associated with its profile include Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, and Pinene, contributing to its aromatic and potential therapeutic qualities. Minor cannabinoids may be present in trace amounts.
Growing
This strain is noted for its resistance to environmental stresses and stable, consistent yields, with up to 90% of test grow cycles showing predictable results. Its compact, robust structure is characteristic of indica-dominant plants, and it is considered to have a grounded genetic foundation that contributes to its resilience in cultivation.
Origins & Lineage
Bred by Alien Genetics, Seven Ghost was developed during the late 1980s and early 1990s, drawing from traditional landrace genetics and modern hybridization. It is estimated to possess up to 85% indica genetics, with some legacy gene pools contributing significantly to its resilience and potency. It is considered an homage to ancient indica strains and a preservation of rare genetic lines.
