Northern Light

after a wonderful performenc i was able to harvest a good crop. unfortunately i was not able to dry under ideal conditions and mould developed. unfortunately only 8g dry weight remained from the 236g buds i initially harvested. a real shame.

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.

Very forgiving strain.

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

Excellent Strain, easy to grow and beautiful flowers, I loved it! Will recommend for my friends, especially if you are a new grower. Thanks people, love to all of us!

Very good smoke and super smooth. The trichomes on it are abundant and the buds are super sticky.

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.

Easy to grow and I without much focus you can grow really good weed

its hard indica with an 100% heavy stoned effect, tasted good like citrus. easy to grow and a great plant for training

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👍.

Bummmm! I just started my Christmas day 24th of December 2021 with her as a first try and of course took a glass of mulled wine on the way as well. Next day just went for it pure and 😴 Let's see then but firstly, Thank you Royal Queen Seeds providing me this majesty. Another big thank you to ViparSpectra providing thsi outstanding XS2000. Great creation well done. I used to grow her autoflowering version from RQS that was a great strain I really loved that one too! So when I just strarted reading the official RQS site description about this strain I found a lot of thing was drawn the way I perfectly feel or felt so I will add those to be able to describe the clearest way. So it says "According to the legend, it was an exclusive Indica plant from Afghanistan, although some of the original eleven plants were said to contain Thai genetics." Interesting and about the strain is mostly Indica but it has sativa in its leafs. So the leaf structure is supposed to be sativa style. What is your openinion about it? I was checking other diaries as well. Just wondering anyways... Alright for me she was like the plant just need to grow and LST max nothing else. She stayed for me quite small and weak but was looking good, I did a bit stronger FIMming. Nicely coated buds and got purple in the end so was exotic style a mini one ;) It was great to grow but I also know that I could do better with her but it can happen only next time. Let's move to the smoke.... So here I would like to copy from their site: "Northern Lights is simply one of those knockout smokes that guarantees a couchlock session for the next few minutes. The Afghan heritage really shines through in the smoke, and anyone looking for that strong stone need seek no further than this beautiful strain." Well...... true.... it is a strong indica dominant strain and it really gives you nice strong relaxation for sure.... feeling good and relaxed.... guaranteed haha I wanna say that this strain more than worth growing and you grow out 300g or 30g beleive me it is a winning smoke you gotta try..... As I know growing part can be different and seeing great other results here I would give 9 to grow and the smoke yeah .... what do you think you all? 10 of course... Bye ❤️

I’ll skip the overview on this one as most of that is under the blueberry harvest. Aside from a constant battle with WPM and a slight nute burn issue that didn’t make it to the buds - these plants grew out great. Surprisingly they yielded out quite a bit more than the others (save the white widow which was a beast) and the bud structure and density is fantastic. The effects are also very very strong for this foundational type of strain. NL is traditionally 17% or so but, this particular plant hits like a 10 pound hammer across both the head and the body at onset. It comes down within an hour or so and levels out to a very narcotic type of couchlock. Great movie strain👍🤩.

From same phenotype as the previous Northern Light photoperioids. Flowered till +70% amber trichomes which made this real couch locking smoke 😎😶‍🌫️

Brought this one down with the Skywalker. It’s likely too early for her as with the rest but she caught some significant WPM and bud rot as well so there simply wasn’t an option. Meh - we’ll see what it shakes out after the bud wash and trim. Again - we’ve either got some solid gold bud this run or a bunch of garbage grass that can go in to bubble hash. ***Update*** She dried out to almost 2oz. Which is pretty good for this genetic all things considered. Again, there are no guarantees the bud quality is any good and as far as we can see so far - no seeds. Shame it is and a waste of a good plant. Either way - we’ll see how her clones fare on the next dutchy cycle. ***UPDATE*** Finally got around to initial sampling of this one and results are very surprising. This is easily the hardest hitting strain in the whole run. Very strange because it was supposed to be the mildest. The smoke is still a little rough as she’s still curing but the effects are crazy. She hits almost immediately like a 10pound hammer to the brain. It’s a little racey at higher dosages and a phenomenal initial high. It mellows out into a strong narcotic after effect, promoting drowsiness and couchlock. A perfect strain for those lazy evenings by the tv. I am super impressed with how this turned out. She wasn’t supposed to be anything like this.
