How to grow Northern Light Blue
Taste
Seb's take
Northern Lights crossed with Blueberry produces a compact, densely foliaged plant with a citric aroma running through the fruity, floral nose. Sturdy secondary branches take well to SCROG or SOG training and shrug off pests and disease with equal indifference. The high is sleepy and relaxed, medicinal in character rather than recreational bravado.
Where it comes from
Northern Lights crossed with Blueberry — Delicious Seeds pairing the foundational indica with one of the most beloved fruit lines in the catalogue. The result is a pure indica with Blueberry's fruit written through it and Northern Lights' density and hardiness underneath. A well-matched cross, and a handsome one; two classics that have been put together many times, and for good reason.
Nose & flavour
A citric aroma leads, brighter than the pedigree might suggest, over a fruity, floral base — the Blueberry parent lending its sweetness to the Northern Lights weight. Clean and appealing, the citrus keeping it lively. A more aromatic nose than the heavy indica structure would lead you to expect, and the better for it.
The high
Sleepy and relaxed — a settling, evening-leaning effect at 20% THC, firmly in the indica register. The record frames her toward the restful end of things, and the pure-indica genetics back that up. Take her as company for a quiet night rather than a busy day; she is in no hurry, and neither will you be.
Growing it
Compact and densely foliaged, with thick secondary branches that carry the large flowers well and take readily to SCROG or SOG training. She shrugs off pests and disease with equal indifference and matures fast — flowering in just 50 to 55 days — for a solid 500 g/m². The record notes she can be grown in essentially any system without complaint. A sturdy, quick, forgiving indica that repays a little training with a full canopy.
