These tents are amazing. Strong zippers, heavy canvas, lots of openings for cords and vents but they can all be sealed easily. The 5x5 has a huge rear opening as well and virtually no smell escapes till you open the tent.
I like to veg a little longer than some people, but I like a nice tall strong plant. I try to top at least once a week during veg to produce loads of colas during flower. I generally try to clip some clones the day I change the light schedule to flower mode so the babies will be ready for moving into flower as its mamma is being harvested. This strain is pretty hardy and can take some abuse then bounces right back. You know, the days you forget to water.
1st time ever growing Northern Lights as well as the 1st time every growing from seed. They grow very similar to the others I have grown. They seem pretty hardy and had a decent yield. I would compare it to Granddaddy Purple for strength and effect. A little dry mouth and a lot of couch lock. What I really like about it is that it is much easier to trim after harvest than GDP. Nice big solid buds without tons of small leaves. I did end up having to give her support because her buds were pretty heavy. I have been experimenting with harvest time and this time I only waited till all the pistels were a nice dark orange. Next time I am going to wait till some trichomes turn amber. With my other plants I have found the THC/CBD content to be noticeably higher when I wait and for my small grow that extra quality is of more value to me than getting it a week earlier.
