Northern Light has rightfully earned its reputation as one of the most iconic strains in the cannabis world. This indica-dominant hybrid still shows off plenty of its sativa heritage, especially in its leaf structure and internodal spacing. A feminized variety, Northern Lights grows tall and vigorous, reaching up to 120cm indoors and stretching to 200cm outdoors. She develops a huge, resin-coated central cola with long, slender leaves that give her a majestic presence in the grow room or garden. After just 7–8 weeks of flowering, or by late September outdoors, Northern Lights rewards cultivators with impressive yields of 500–550g/m² under a 600W light indoors and 575–625g/plant outdoors. Best suited to warm climates such as Spain, California, or North Africa, she flourishes in plenty of sun and space. With a THC content of 18%, this strain delivers a strong knockout effect that hits fast and lingers for several minutes, making it a perfect choice for fans of a heavy body stone and full physical relaxation.

Right after opening the jar, the aroma comes through with that classic earthy sweetness mixed with pine and a slightly spicy undertone. Breaking up the buds releases even more depth, with a creamy herbal smell that instantly fills the room. The buds themselves came out dense, frosty, and surprisingly colorful with deep green and purple hues hidden under a heavy layer of trichomes. Definitely one of the prettier harvests I’ve had in a while. The smoke is super smooth after cure. Thick flavorful hits without harshness, and the ash burns clean. Flavor-wise it leans earthy and sweet on the inhale with a slightly woody/spicy finish on the exhale. Effects hit fast but stay very balanced. It starts with a calm uplifting head buzz before melting into a deep relaxing body high without completely knocking you out. Perfect evening smoke — strong enough to unwind after a long day but still functional if you keep the dosage reasonable. Overall, really happy with how this Northern Lights finished. Easygoing grow, great terp profile, and exactly the kind of relaxing smoke you hope for from this strain.

First plant down! It was the biggest plant of them all, and it provided 236g wet bud. I didn't even weight the smaller buds. Three plants left, i will update how much they weighted when their times comes! Northern Lights was and easy strain to grow. And it didn't smell much as promised at the start of the flower, but after week 4 the smell really started to show. Maybe not as much as some other strains. Dry bud from first plant: 65g. Two of the plants have been drying two days, and third one will be cut down today. I will keep you updated about the weight. Second plant wet bud: 158g. Total dry weight is around 150-200g, im too lazy to put all of them on scale... Smoked a little yesterday. Good smoke, makes you relaxed and zero paranoia! 16/4/26 Plants have been curing about a month now, and the look, taste and smell are very good. If you're going somewhere in the next couple hours, don't smoke much. Uploaded new picture.

Chopped these ladies after 60 days of flowering. These plants produced some very tasty buds! There was not much difference in taste between the two plants. They both taste sweet with citrus undertones and a very smooth smoke. These girls were good for smoking right after drying and a breeze to trim! Although the terps were on point the flower was not very frosty or potent and lacking density. these traits are something you expect from a legendary strain like Northern Lights. I chucked my mother plants as well because they started to flower in veg under a 18/6 light schedule. I'm not sure if it was my growing methods or the genetics from Royal Queen seeds, this take on Northern Lights really missed the mark for me.

I had no issues at all running this cultivar. She was a dream to grow. She is LOUD though. Skunky, funky sweetness. Update: I ended up with 1.9 pounds after dry and trim. Nugs are rockhard and dense.

Very good strain great smoke smells great. No complaints this is a classic and good genes. Only complaint is not the frostiest buds but that could be my fault due to my whole tent herming.

The plant is so strong that it survived the hot weather in Manila. This is just a test run tbh, not happy with the buds as they’re airy but so impressed by the genetics. Stable and pest resistant. I was away from home several times during the cycle of this plant. There are days that I dont get to check and feed her. This plant literally survived on its own almost 80% of her time. Really strong genetics. Will run another round for RQS for sure.

IMO this strain is in top 3 best strains. It grows in any conditions. I never use heaters. These days outside Temps are 0 to 10°C, 5 to 14°C in my garage. After i cut the apex after 4 nodes peripheral branches had short development. Outside in summer i cut after 3 nodes to get a 6-buds bush because flowering strech is more important and buds are thicker

Ist auf jeden Fall ordentlich Harzig, beim Rauchen entsteht ein schöner Oilring und die Asche ist definitiv weiß. Richen tut es auch Klasse, ein wenig nach Zitronenmelisse, vom Geschmack hätte ich mir aber dennoch mehr erwartet. Alles in allem ein guter Strain, macht auch gut dicht.

Found it stopped growing just after week 3 and all the energy was redirect to bud growth. Definitely got some nice dense buds.

What a great plant. Still can’t get over how strong the high on this girl is. So we’re obviously happy about having this cut available for pollination. She’s strong with very good vigour. Squat as a plant with massive head buds and tight internodal spacing. Despite being particularly susceptible to WPM she does grow right through it without issue if the problem is being actively managed. The spicy bitch by contrast was very resistant which is exactly one of those traits that you hope gets shared with these F1 seeds. The colours should be a light show based on how each tend to colour in late flower. All told and despite limited info - I have very high hopes for this cross🤞🤞🤞🙏. We’re gonna call it Northern Spice F1. All the plants pretty much cried uncle around week 8 and then a couple took some decent burn when we inadvertently mixed up the feed ratios. Regardless, beautiful tiger striping on the seeds👌. It ain’t a pretty finish but mission definitely accomplished👍.
