One of the most known strains around the globe, Northern Lights originates from a cross between Afghani and Thai landraces, making it one of the most potent strains available back in 1985, with around 13% THC levels. This is a relatively easy-to-grow strain with a quick flowering time of 45 to 50 days, making it highly recommended for beginner growers who seek short, compact strains with an increased resistance to mold and powdery mildew Northern Lights offers a very complex mix of pungent, sweet, and spicy aromas. Expect a strong herbal background with hints of pepper and citrus, with, oftentimes, touches of sandalwood and pine. This unique terpene profile translates into that classic weed flavor with a prominent taste of pure hashish. This strain delivers a very powerful effect that’s perfect for medical patients. Northern Lights’ effects start with euphoric cerebral stimulation, combined with a potent physical relaxation that soon gets you very sleepy and couch-locked.
