I can tell this strain is a classic because of it's nice aroma and look. This strain seems like it's best to do with friends. Good for pain relief but definitely is a sedative haha.
Seems to do what I need it to do for my depression and anxiety. This strain does give me a slight headache, dry mouth, and dry eyes. I was pretty much attached to the couch with only a few puffs. Can really lay you out for a while, so make sure you don't have anything important to do anytime soon.
This is the first strain I'm reviewing because it is one of my go-to favorites!! I have dealt with chronic neck pain from a childhood braintumor (along with some PTSD and IBS) for almost twenty years now and Northern Lights has always been my magical medicine of choice. It takes away my pain and anxiety and is also oh so beautiful (like it's namesake) and always delicious!

Just reviewing the growing of this plant; when I smoke this strain in the next few weeks, it will be from my own organic indoor plant.
If you are thinking of growing, this plant is perfect for the noob, including me. It is durable, easy to grow and resistant to all problems. My approach was do no harm.
I germinated two autofem seeds from Crop King Seeds with wet paper towels, just as they suggested. The tap root appeared in about 4 days. Then I moved them to small 6" terra cotta pots. Later to large 15" terra cotta pots.
They weren't fed much: Jobe's organic fertilizer (chicken bones, etc, not salt based) each week, but lightly. They were grown under a $29 LED array from Amazon. For the last two weeks of bloom, I decided to feed them some Fox Bloom fertilizer (worm castings and bat guano) to fatten the lower nugs.
I used terra cotta spikes and wine bottles to keep the soil perfectly moist.
Five months after germination, I'm looking at 5 - 7 ounces as I stagger my harvest. (The lower part of the plant bloomed later than the top). The bud is dank. Lots of crystals all over the leaves of flowers. True to online advice, the white hairs turned orange. When mostly orange, I began the harvest.
Bottom line: easy to grow; looking forward to the experience.
Yield is already 2.5 ounces with at least that much left on the two plants. I project 7 ounces with a per gram cost of $1.16.
Now I'm trying an autofem GG4 indoors and a couple regular seeds outdoors now that spring has arrived.
(I used seed starter pods on a couple photocycle seeds with mixed results. Be sure to cut open that pod to allow roots to grow.)

Fairly decent strain. Not as sedating as what I typically look for in an Indication, but great affects overall, and good flavor. Very noticeable heavy body sensation, but my brain was firing a million miles an hour, so really good if you need time to think, but not good prior to sleep.
