Ortega is a pure indica strain created from a cross of Northern Lights #1 and Northern Lights #5. This cannabis classic has been around since the 80s, standing the test of time thanks to its heavy indica high and manageable THC average of 17-18%. The dank flavor of this iconic cross combines spicy berries and sweet fruity flavors with peppery and slightly herbal undertones. The effects start out with a hazy cerebral euphoria that quickly becomes a heavy body high with strong sedative-like effects, leaving you relaxed from head to toe and super sleepy. When it comes to medical effects, Ortega is an excellent choice for med patients seeking relief from insomnia, anxiety, stress, depression, migraines, cramps, eye pressure, and pain. As far as growing goes, this strain has a moderate difficulty, making it best for growers with some experience. Flowering time is 6-8 weeks indoors, while outdoor plants are ready to harvest in mid October. Yields are high, producing as much as 700g/m2 indoors and 600g/plant or more outdoors.
