When we speak of high quality Indica strains, there's a name that always comes to mind: Northern Lights. A three-way cross of NL #1, NL#2 and NL#5, this combination of Afghan genes revolutionized indoor growing, since it was one of the first cannabis strains ever created for growing with artificial lights. It's widely used to produce other hybrids by breeders and seed banks all around the world.
Northern Lights Cultivation
Northern Lights is easy to grow and an ideal plant for growers of all levels. Compact and resistant, it develops large dark green leaves and lots of branches, with a rounded shrubby structure. It's a vigorous grower that reaches medium heights, which makes it extremely versatile and suitable for both SOG and SCROG.
Revolution has arrived to indoor growing
Before the advent of the Northern Lights and its hybrids, indoor growing was limited to easy tropical Sativas, much more difficult to cultivate in this type of environment
This strain is a good producer and offers enormous colas of sticky buds in all its branches. Indoors, it only needs 8-9 weeks to mature, being able to yield several crops per year without problem. Its especially stable genetics are used in numerous breeding programs.
Despite being a strain traditionally grown indoors, its outdoor yields - especially in a Mediterranean climate - are also impressive. Robust, resilient, and highly productive plants that are ready to harvest in early October, and offer large amounts of resin loaded flowers.
Northern Lights Taste and Effects
Northern Lights' flavour is worthy of the most precious Afghan lineages: sweet and smooth notes with hints of citrus and juniper, which stay in the palate for a long time. The aroma is not particularly pungent during flowering, so it's ideal for outdoor and guerrilla growing.
The effect is strong and almost instant, with all the power of the Indicas. Perfect for relaxing and relieving stress, and also to fight insomnia and stimulate the appetite. If you are looking for a strain to provide you peace and calmness, look no further!
