Greetings fellow growers!
I'm looking forward to doing another grow, and this time it's the legendary Northern Lights strain from Sensi Seeds. The anticipation is palpable as I immerse myself in the world of this iconic strain, known for its rich history and potent effect.
Northern Lights, a staple of Amsterdam's cannabis scene in the 2000s, continues to captivate enthusiasts with its robust genetics and soothing Indica-dominant traits. This strain boasts a fascinating lineage, comprising NL #1, NL #2, and NL #5, which are believed to be a combination of Afghani Landrace, Thai, and Indica varieties. For more detailed information about its genetic makeup, you can explore Seedfinder's database.
For the germination process, I opted to combine two methods: first, the glass method, followed by germination directly in soil. The glass method involved a 24-hour soak in purified water, ensuring the seeds sank to the bottom before removing them. Subsequently, I transferred them into BioBizz Lightsmix soil enriched with Mykrorizza to promote healthy root development nutrient symbiosis in 0.2-liter pots.
Following germination, the ladies were treated to a day of darkness before being exposed to approximately 200 PPFD under dimmed Lumatek lamps. The staggered germination dates from 7 to 11 December showed the different reactions of the seeds.
Watering proved to be a learning curve, as I initially provided 50 milliliters but later realized that 30-40 milliliters would suffice in the greenhouse environment. This adjustment will be noted.
As we await the next stages of growth, I'm filled with excitement and curiosity to witness the Northern Lights flourish under my care. Stay tuned for updates on this promising grow!
Happy growing,
