Highly valued for her therapeutic properties due to her high cannabinoid levels.
Our 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.
Crossing her with the classic, Indica dominant, mythical Skunk #1, which was the first real Indica-Sativa hybrid comprising Afghan, Mexican and Colombian genes and a strain that changed the face of cannabis culture worldwide, demonstrates the true meaning of hybrid vigour, by further improving the already impressive yields and therapeutic value of the illustrious Northern.

Strain FAQ
Do mould-resistant strains have different leaf structures?
Many mould-resistant plants have smaller leaves than indica or sativa crops. Airflow around and through the plant is improved by this leaf shape, preventing mould growth.
What climates are best for strains with Central American and Caribbean heritage like this one?
These strains thrive in humid and tropical Central American and Caribbean settings. They resist pests and moulds common in these environments, making them useful for breeding programmes to improve cannabis disease resistance.
Why do some cannabis strains smell like incense?
Incense-scented strains frequently come from landrace strains from India and the Middle East. Cannabis' various terpenes give it its fragrance.
How does greenhouse cultivation extend the legal growing season for certain cannabis strains?
It is said that the beauty of a greenhouse is in how it lets legal growers play with time, using tricks like extra lighting or shading to stretch the growing season beyond what Mother Nature dictates. This flexibility means strains that would usually get just one shot at harvesting outdoors each year can enjoy multiple cycles. This reportedly results in an increased yield and greater efficiency.
Rare cannabis cannabinoids: what are their benefits?
Cannabis contains approximately 100 cannabinoids, including CBG and CBN, which are being studied for their reported therapeutic properties. CBG-rich strains are being studied for treating inflammatory bowel disease and glaucoma, demonstrating the vast medicinal potential of cannabis beyond just THC and CBD.
