How to grow Aurora Indica
Taste
Seb's take
Afghani crossed with Northern Lights, sweet and piney with a pungent berry edge on the nose. Ninety percent Indica and it shows — the sitting-down sort of high, relaxed drifting into sleepy — on short, purple-tinged bushes stacked with dense, resinous colas. Easy for a beginner, provided the humidity is watched.
Where it comes from
Nirvana Seeds crossed Afghani with Northern Lights here, and the arithmetic is uncompromising: ninety percent Indica to ten Sativa, two Indica plants making a third that keeps every tradition of the family. The Afghani lends the resin and the weight, the Northern Lights the structure and the colour. There is nothing subtle about the pedigree and nothing subtle about the outcome. A proper Indica, bred true.
Nose & flavour
Sweet and piney on the nose, with a pungent berry edge and floral notes threaded through. It is a layered profile, the sweetness and berry lifting the pine, the whole thing carried on buds so dense with resin that humidity must be watched. A rich, characterful aroma from a plant that dresses heavily for the occasion.
The high
Ninety percent Indica, and it shows without apology: the sitting-down sort of high, relaxed and happy at the outset before drifting toward euphoric and, in time, sleepy. This is the couch-locking end of the canon; you will not be needed elsewhere this evening. At 18 to 24% THC there is real weight behind it, so a measured hand serves best.
Growing it
Forty-nine to sixty-three days in flower, a prompt turn for buds this heavy, on short, compact purple-tinged bushes with numerous side colas. Yields run a solid four hundred to five hundred grams the square metre. Height is not recorded, only that she stays short and stocky in typical Indica fashion. She is easy enough for a novice, with one caveat: the dense, resinous mature buds demand good humidity control, or trouble follows. At 18 to 24% THC, a compact, generous Indica for the watchful.
