flavor: at first it made me think of menthol but after another hit its more like the taste of a good tea. maybe with a little hint of mintyness.
affects: I am immediately relaxed, sleepy, and worry free. This morning I also woke up with cramps and back pain and those ailments are suddenly gone as well!
my 'ailments': insomnia, ptsd, anxiety, depression, adhd, pcos.
side note: if I remember correctly this is a strain I first tried on a birthday trip to colorado because it was suggested to me to help with insomnia and elevation sickness. did me wonders!
Northern Lights has always been hands down my favorite indica especially true Northern Lights, the high is HARD and HEAVY after smoking northern lights you'll truly feel "blowed"!
Almost not like being stoned , because there are zero sativa effects, but the pure indica feeling is lovely. Very relaxing, euphoric, sleepy... it just feels more like a gentle sedative than a strain of weed. Sometimes that's exactly what you want though.

I have just tried this strain for my insomnia and back pain. This has been one of the best for both. It gives me a nice and easy relaxation and calms me before I go to bed. Once I lay down I'm usually out with 15 minutes and I sleep throughout the night. When I don't use it, I'm awake for hours, wake up after an hour or so. I have nerve and muscle pain in my back and it is aggravated from laying or sitting. NL has made sleeping possible once again!
I’m probably not as well versed in strain names vs. your usual cannabis-friendly person, but I knew and remembered THIS name, so that’s saying something right there. NL is everything it’s cracked up to be…in every way. I’m much more of an indica person anyway, but this is a really unbelievably amazing strain. (This is coming from a 30+ smoker/vaper/etc, for whatever that’s worth.) The only not wonderful effect is very dry mouth, as others have mentioned. A small price to pay, though!
Northern Lights is one of my favorite stains. It's makes me, meditative, creative, lovey, hungry and sleepy, in that order, for the most part. I don't feel too giggly and I'm never anxious. I vape flower, for the most part, and Northern Lights seems to hit me late, sometimes even 15-20 minutes after smoking it. When the high hits, I go through the modes I described, above, changing every 20 minutes or so. The high I experience lasts up to three hours. Oftentimes, I use it in the evening, and I don't even get to those three hours, because I'm going to bed early. And, I've also used Northern Lights for bouts of insomnia. It works better than just about anything I've ever tried.
I have never been a pure indica guy, and Northern Lights was my first lil adventure into the legal market now that I've got my medical card. This stuff will put you to sleep better than any medicene can, it lulls you in by couchlocking you, rewarding you with euphoria whenever you nod off until you finally get to sleep. Don't operate heavy machinery on this one.
Fantastic morning smoke. Gets you up and going! Made me feel happy and like there was no care in the world. Spaced me out for sure.
