Grab your lighter ladies and gentlemen! It’s time for another trip down memory lane – this time with the legendary Northern Lights. This isn’t just any old strain; this is my personal Kryptonite! Back in the late ’80s, Amsterdam, at The Bluebird Cafe—I had my first dance with Northern Lights. I remember the feeling of a heavy, lead blanket and wobbly legs like it was yesterday. My buddy was out cold back at the hotel, and I was still on a mission, my friends. I was determined to smoke anything and everything Amsterdam had to offer and it was now the very end of the day. After smoking my way through a smorgasbord of weed from all over the city, I lit up a Northern Lights joint and walked back to the hotel. Let me tell you, this weed was like a slap in the face with the stupid stick. It cut through the fog of EVERYTHING I had smoked that day and left me seriously debilitated and stupidly high, stumbling back to the hotel to wake up my friend.
Northern Lights has a backstory that’s as clouded as Scooby’s van. Some whisper it was first bred by a shadowy figure known as “The Indian,” right on an island near Seattle. Others gossip that it might have been a Californian native before it got to Seattle. But details aside, we’re talking about a strain that’s a true-blue Afghani indica, sporting a piney taste with a hint of purple hues when it flowers.
What is more clear is that eventually Neville Schoenmaker created a stabilized Afghan hybrid using a Thai Sativa and the rest is cannabis history. Countless EPIC strains can trace their roots back to Northern Lights including AK47, Super Silver Haze, Sweet Tooth, Neville’s Haze, Medicine Man, and too many others to count.
Now, fast forward to today, and here I am, gearing up for the release of Northern Lights F3 seeds. This isn’t just about throwing seeds at you to grow; it’s about passing on a piece of a legend. And these seeds? They’re practically a direct line to those mythical 90’s seeds, preserved in F2 form by JoeyWeed. Whether you’re a seasoned grower or a curious newcomer, planting these seeds is like stepping into a time machine.
I don’t want to get too deep, but growing these beauties is less about recreating some mystical cannabis folklore and more about nailing that killer Northern Lights experience in your own backyard. Think of it not just as some of the most narcotic weed ever made, but as your personal cannabis journey, with a side of historical homage (because who doesn’t like a bit of story with their strain?).
So, whether you’re in it for the nostalgia, the stellar genetics, or just because you heard some crazy guy named Katsu raving about it—you’re going to want to give these Northern Lights F3 seeds a go. Trust me, it’s not just planting a seed; it’s growing a legacy. And if it turns out as strong as that night in Amsterdam, you’re in for a wild ride!
