The American Legend in Autoflowering Form

Northern Lights stands as a milestone in the history of cannabis. Originating in the United States in the 1970s from pure Afghan genetics, this Indica variety has earned a legendary reputation among growers and enthusiasts around the world.

Continuous Evolution

Decades of careful selection and advanced hybridization techniques have led to numerous variants of the original Northern Lights. Each version retains the winning traits that made the strain famous, while introducing new elements to its genetic heritage. Northern Light Auto by Royal Queen Seeds represents the perfect balance between tradition and innovation.

Versatility and Ease of Cultivation

Thanks to its autoflowering and feminized nature, Northern Light Auto adapts seamlessly to diverse cultivation environments:

• Indoor: ideal for limited home-growing spaces

• Outdoor: excellent for large-scale cultivation

The plant begins flowering automatically and reaches maturity in just 10–12 weeks from germination, greatly simplifying the cultivation process even for beginners.

Climate Resistance and Adaptability

A remarkable strength of Northern Light Auto is its high resistance to low temperatures. Due to the Ruderalis component in its genetic makeup, this strain can withstand colder climates more effectively than traditional photoperiod varieties. This makes it particularly suitable for:

• Outdoor grows in northern regions

• Growth during cooler seasons

• Areas with significant temperature fluctuations

The plant’s robustness allows it to complete its life cycle even under suboptimal conditions, making it an excellent choice for growers operating in colder climates.

Impressive Yields for an Autoflower

Despite its compact size (typically 90–120 cm), Northern Light Auto delivers outstanding yields, placing it among the most productive autoflowering strains available:

• Outdoor: up to 200g per plant under optimal Mediterranean-like conditions

• Indoor: around 90g per plant in a controlled environment

These are impressive figures considering the short life cycle and the compact structure of the plant.

Organoleptic Profile and Effects

Northern Light Auto inherits the distinctive sensory profile of the original strain:

Aroma and flavour: sweet notes with hints of citrus, pine, earth, and peppery touches, creating a complex and pleasant tasting experience.

Effects: deep physical relaxation typical of Indica strains, balanced by a stimulating mental clarity. This combination makes the variety appreciated for therapeutic applications as well.
