Area 51 is a strain of mysterious, contested origins. While many sources claim Area 51 is an accidental combination of Cannatonic and Alien Abduction bred in 2010, the breeders at North Genetics have their own version that combines Smurfberry with a Snowdawg x Romulan female.
Consumer reports mention Area 51 features an earthy fragrance of pungent citrus and pine with floral notes. Its smoke leans more towards the lemony side with hints of earthy pine.
Area 51 leans towards its sativa heritage, growing tall and thin and preferring a semi-humid climate full of warm sunshine. However, skilled growers can help Area 51 thrive in an indoor garden, particularly with hydroponic and the ScrOG method. Plants reach full maturity in 10-12 weeks indoors or in late October outside, producing up to 16 ounces of flower per plant in optimal conditions.
Area 51 is available commercially as seeds.
