Northern Light Automatic is the autoflowering take on one of the worldβs most legendary indica-dominant strains. A perfect blend of old-school charm and modern autoflowering genetics, this cultivar carries 80% indica and 20% ruderalis, offering growers the best of both worlds.
Thanks to her resilience, Northern Light Auto thrives both indoors and outdoors, adapting easily to different climates. From germination to harvest, she takes just 9β10 weeks, rewarding growers with impressive yields of 500β550g/mΒ² indoors and 170β220g per plant outdoors. For an autoflower, she reaches a respectable height of 90β120cm, making her a solid producer without taking up too much space.
Much like the classic Northern Light, her buds deliver a sweet, smooth smoke and a deeply relaxing physical effect that soothes the body while keeping the mind at ease. This makes her not only a delight for recreational use, but also a valuable ally for medicinal consumers seeking relief.
I had to harvest her early. Possibly 2-3 weeks.
The early harvest had two reasons.
1. I had to harvest before my vacation
2. I noticed bud rod!
After drying I had about 50 grams - but I didn't trim so well - guess I end up at 40 after final trimming.
Compared to my Watermelon harvest, I do not know what to expect.
Some of the buds have brown spots, looks like they dried too much. (Might also be an early stage of bud rod).
But I didn't see any mould or growing brown spots.
The smell is very different from Watermelon. It smells like dry hay after drying.
Currently I am curing the buds and the smell of hay reduces.
I am excited for the taste and effect!
One of the easiest autos I grown. Minimal training and she put out some nice looking spears. She was a lot thirstier in flower than I'm used to, the. Again she was a big girl!
Harvested with 75 days. A little bit earlier than what I would've wanted, but life got in the way and I had to chop them early.
Overall pretty satisfied with the grow, but the buds are very mid. Was a very good learning experience though, will improve in the next one.
Total of 72g dry off of Northern Lights #1 (lots of larf) and 18g off of Norther Lights #2.
Neither Northern Lights or Royal Cheese were particularly incredible on the nose or even smoke - although I believe some of it is due to the early harvest.
Anyways, pretty satisfied with how this went through, was able to test some techniques and learn a lot. Now to the next grow!
How is this strain for someone who gets paranoid pretty easy? Maybe paranoid is the wrong word. It's just that whenever I smoke high-THC strains I tend to overthink everything and don't really enjoy the high that much. I'm actually growing a low-THC strain (Fast Eddy) with the hope of a more enjoyable experience, but I got three of these for free and don't really want to waste them.
@Zweibel, Hi bud, I have the exact same issue as you. I would recommend just to go for Indica leaning strains and to harvest a little late - let those trichomes go amber. Also be sure to cure it properly for at least 3 weeks since the high becomes much more relaxing and less prone to paranoia/overthinking, it really makes a diference.
These Northern Lights from RQS are really perfect for that since they also have a medium THC level.
