Northern Lights Automatic

Overview

The Northern Lights Automatic brings the legendary Afghani Indica into the world of feminized auto-flowering strains. With no need to identify and eliminate males, and no need to change light cycles to induce flowering, it’s never been easier to grow this definitive example of cannabis Indica. The original Northern Lights genotype has been famous for decades as the source of industry-changing strains and hybrids such as NL#1, NL#2, NL#5, NL 5x2, Shiva Skunk, Hash Plant, Silver Pearl, and Northern Lights #5 x Haze.

Bred from the same rock-solid gene pool, Northern Lights Automatic blends NL#5 and NL#2 with the best feminized auto-flowering Indica, back-crossing with the NL parents. Like most of her family, Northern Lights Automatic is usually grown indoors, under lights, though this strain can also perform very well outdoors in a warm, sunny Mediterranean climate.

Indoors or out, NL Automatic can progress from germination to harvest in as little as 11 weeks! Flowering typically begins 20 to 30 days after seedlings emerge from the soil, regardless of photoperiod, and NL Auto’s blooming phase is complete within 50 to 60 days. Indoor growers who give more hours of light per day (say, 18 hours instead of 14) may see the flowering cycle completed slightly faster, but the difference is usually negligible.

Northern Lights Automatic normally attains a height of 60-90cm by harvest time. This strain continues the traditions of her classic ancestors, producing fast, solid harvests with surprisingly little growing odor. Nevertheless, her buds are sweetly fragrant and, due to their thick coating of THC-rich trichomes, remarkably powerful!
