Area 51

If you were going to name a rare hybrid known for its otherworldly effects and mysterious origins, calling it Area 51 was a really good call. This cryptic strain is of unknown origins, and Green Gene Seeds are not giving anything up anytime soon. Though, as one might expect from a strain of this stature, this is a full body high that will have you believing that the truth is out there.

This perfectly balanced 50/50 bud offers up high THC levels ranging from 20% to 23% on average. As a result, the effects on your mind and body are quite substantial and could have you falling in love with these little cone-shaped buds. Nugs are rich in color and texture with olive green tones and electric orange hairs that are covered in jumbo-sized white trichomes, giving it an almost alien-like feel. The aromas are floral and citrus with flavors to match, and are so easy to smoke it’s easy to get lost in Area 51.

Not for the faint of heart, this bud busts through the walls of your mind like the Kool-Aid guy and works its way through your body with stealth and ease. For recreational use, this is a fun high to take with you on the town. It’s incredibly uplifting right from the start and has you feeling full body tingles and mind-bending bliss in very little time. You’ll feel after the initial wave that your focus begins to sharpen and your desire to be social skyrockets. As the high starts to level out, you’ll feel the mellow sensation in your limbs spread to your body and utter relaxation will kick in and overrule the chatty nature of this bud.

Medical users rave about this strain for its ability to uplift and invigorate the senses. If you suffer from chronic fatigue, the energetic nature of this bud will enliven even the worst of your symptoms. Mental illness and mood or attention disorders stand little chance against this bud as it is by design focused on the elevation of mind, body, and spirit. This makes it a great option for anyone suffering from depression, stress, bipolar, or ADHD. The all over body relaxation makes this strain ideal for treating muscle tension and cramps as well as mild to moderate chronic pain.

While we’d like to say that this strain is as easy to grow as it to love, unfortunately, it isn’t. This moderate to advanced plant is hard to maintain in a home environment and as a result of that is typically left to the experts. If you can get your hand on seeds and want to take a stab at it, be sure to monitor each aspect of the plant’s life cycle closely as changes may not always be good. The secret life of this strain makes it difficult to pin down exact tips on cultivation.

Immediate feelings of euphoria are just one of the many reasons to love this lively strain. Area 51 is one of those rare and secretive breeds that makes you feel like a real sleuth if you can manage to get your hands on it. As this is a very social strain, when you do get the opportunity to indulge, bring a friend and share in the mystery.
