Overview

Northern Light, a renowned cannabis strain, primarily Indica, originated in the 1970s in the USA from Afghani genetics. By the 1980s, it made its way to Holland, revolutionizing the indoor growing scene. With evolving growing and breeding techniques, today’s Northern Light Automatic perfectly combines tradition with innovation.
