Northern Lights is a legendary strain with a mysterious genetic background thought to have originated from the west coast of America from eleven different seeds. These seeds have been extensively bred, leading to the current genetic makeup being somewhat of a mystery. However, it's widely acknowledged that Northern Lights has significantly influenced the cannabis genetics landscape, contributing to many award-winning strains over the years.
This strain is predominantly Indica, derived from an exclusive Afghan plant, but also exhibits Sativa characteristics in its leaf structure thanks to Thai genetics in its ancestry. Feminized Northern Lights grows to 1.2m indoors and over 2m outdoors, with a sativa-like leaf structure and spacing but produces dense, resinous buds reminiscent of its Afghan roots.
Under ideal conditions, it yields 500g per square meter indoors under a 600w light, and up to 625g per plant outdoors in warm climates like southern Spain, California, or North Africa. It has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks, culminating in a crop of light, resin-coated buds.
The strain is known for its potent effects, offering a strong, couchlock experience due to its Afghan heritage, making it ideal for those seeking a deep stone.
