Strain Description
Northern Lights is indeed a legendary strain in the world of cannabis genetics. It is renowned for its potent Indica effects and has been the basis for many award-winning classics. The exact genetic makeup of Northern Lights remains a mystery, but it is believed to have originated from a combination of Afghan and Thai genetics. The feminized Northern Lights strain is still predominantly Indica but possesses some Sativa characteristics in its leaf structure. When grown indoors, it typically reaches a height of around 1.2 meters, while outdoor plants can stretch to over 2 meters. It has wider internode spacing and long, thin leaves, which reflect its Sativa heritage. However, during the flowering stage, its Afghan genetics become evident, with dense, resin-covered buds forming all over the plant, including a prominent main cola. Northern Lights feminized plants have a relatively short flowering time of 8-9 weeks. They produce an average yield of 50-60 grams per plant or around 500 grams per square meter under a 600-watt light when grown indoors. Outdoor cultivation in warm environments like southern Spain, California, or North Africa can result in yields of up to 625 grams per plant. Given ample sunlight, nutrients, and water, Northern Lights can grow into a sizable tree-like plant and provide excellent yields.The smoke of Northern Lights is known for its strong Indica stone. Its Afghan heritage is evident in the potent effects it delivers, often inducing a couch-lock session for those who consume it. This strain is highly sought after by individuals seeking a powerful and relaxing experience.
