Flavor and effects Northern Lights Weed
This almost pure indica naturally produces a body stone. Thanks to its high THC content, it is quite strong. There is almost no other strain as relaxing as this one. Northern Lights weed calms and anesthetizes body and mind to the extreme. If you're a medicinal user who enjoys a solid high, Sensi Seed's NL will serve you well. She has a rich and pungent earthy flavor. With it come hints of fruit and spice.
Growth and yield
Sensi Seeds' Northern Lights strain can be grown indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse. Outdoors it grows best in a sunny or Mediterranean climate. But since she has an incredibly short flowering period of 6 to 7 weeks (Fast Flowering), outdoor growers in temperate or continental climates can also put her outside. In fact, she is ready for harvest very early thanks to that short flowering time.
Northern Lights plants are dense and have many branches. During growth and the first weeks of flowering she has a mild smell. Only at the end will you really smell her. Indoors, you can expect 80-130 centimeters in height. Outdoors she can grow taller with lengths up to 2 meters. She needs the space to create her wide fan leaves and large clusters of buds. Under ideal conditions she can yield 600 grams per plant.
Growing tips from Dutch-Headshop
Indoors, this Fast Flowering strain is perfect for a SOG (Sea of Green). She also does well in a ScrOG setup and is suitable for lollipop and supercropping. Because the flowering period is short and intense, it is best to put the energy into the growth phase by giving her a soil conditioner and root stimulator. Northern Lights seems to grow well in nitrogen-rich soil.
