Breeder's Description - 'Northern Lights'
|
Northern Lights is highly adapted to indoor growing. Nearly all promising modern indoor strains contain NL genes. High flower to leaf ratio, compact buds, good yields and exceptional resin production are all characteristics displayed by this wonderful plant. Northern Lights is a most lucrative plant for the indoor grower. The smoke is full bodied yet somewhat neutral in flavour.

Pack received was a freeby along with another strain. 10/10 seeds germed in 48 hours and plants vegged under 110w fluro light for 4 weeks.
Plants showed sex within one week of switching to 12/12 resulting in 6 females and 4 males.
Of the 6 females, 4 were similar mixed Ind/Sat phenos, which finished around 45 days. These smoked piney and induced a heavy body stone that sent me to sleep and made me feel hungry, not really to my taste.
The 2 other plants were Indica doms and finished a few days later. These had denser bud formations and one smokes fruity (my favourite) the other lemony. The effects of these plants is more balanced.
A great 'first' strain and well worth the price. I encountered no problems with this strain and would recommend it to others. Smoke is strong but not the tastiest.
