It Starts With Genetics

Like many strains, the exact origin of Northern Lights isn’t completely clear. Storys claim that the strain originated on one of the small islands off the coast of Washington state where it was cultivated by a man known as “The Indian” before migrating to Holland. The strain is believed to have originally been born from Afghani Landrace plants, giving it its Indica dominant characteristics, and then later had Thai Sativa mixed into its gene pool. Typically this strain's THC levels are in the 16 to 21 percent range and contain very little CBD.

Smoking Experience

As with most Indica strains, Northern Lights is perfect for unwinding at the end of a long day. Its effects are heavily physical, often providing users with a deep sense of relaxation while also easing any tension or pain they may be feeling. With its high THC content and uplifting effects, this heavy hitter is known as a two-hit-quit, because much more than that and you’ll find yourself drifting off into dreamland. Its top-shelf flavor offers a smooth earthy mix of spicy pine, hash, and a hint of citrus that leaves a lingering sweet sensation.
