Seb's take
Critical crossed with Northern Lights #5, the buds forming heavy enough that unsupported branches have been known to snap. Spicy and fruity on the nose — Northern Lights lending the spice, Critical the fruit — and sought after by recreational and medicinal growers alike. Stake her early.
Where it comes from
Expert Seeds crossed Critical with Northern Lights #5, pairing a reliable yielder with one of the most decorated indicas in the book. The result is a 90% indica sought after by recreational and medicinal growers alike. Each parent leaves its mark on the nose, as it happens — the spice from one, the fruit from the other — a clean division of character in a well-matched cross.
Nose & flavour
A fantastic spicy and fruity profile, with the two notes tracing neatly to their sources: the spicy aroma from the Northern Lights #5, and a hint of fruit from the Critical. A warm, well-balanced nose that reads as two distinct hands at work rather than one muddle. Layered, and pleasingly legible.
The high
The record does not detail her effect, so I will not invent one. What it does confirm is that she is sought after by recreational and medicinal growers both — a broad appeal that speaks to a well-rounded character. Beyond that I will keep my counsel rather than claim particulars the record has not given.
Growing it
She flowers in around 56 days and returns 500 to 600 g/m² of heavy bud — heavy enough, in fact, that unsupported branches have been known to snap under the load. The record gives no height, so take the warning as the practical note it is: stake her early and support those branches before the weight arrives, not after. A generous, spicy-fruited indica that needs a little scaffolding to carry what she grows.
