Northern Light is a strain that has won so many indica cups and prizes that they even asked for her to be retired from competition to give other high quality indica strains a chance.
Furthermore, to give us a better idea of her quality, the genetics of many subsequent champions were based on Northern.
By crossing her with Big Bud (one of the best-selling strains during the 80s and 90s owing to her high yields), we produced an exceptional genotype that is ideal for indoor growing owing to her small stature, great yields and resin coated buds.
Highly medicinal, her balanced cannabinoid levels make her an effective tranquiliser. Her elevated CBD levels will leave you in a mildly sedated state, ideal for therapeutic use.
