Atomic Northern Lights

Atomic Northern Lights is an indica-dominant hybrid strain with a lineage tracing back to Afghani indica seeds brought to the U.S. in the 1980s and crossed with Thai Haze to create Northern Lights, a three-time Cannabis Cup winner developed and stabilized in Holland by Sensi. The strain later reached Canada, where Dr. Atomic Seeds recrossed it with its distant relatives, resulting in Atomic Northern Lights. This hybrid features fast flowering times of about eight weeks and produces short, stocky plants. It delivers a mind and body sensation accompanied by an uplifting effect. The scent is pungent, while the flavor is sweet, with noted lime, pine, and skunk tastes. The strain contains approximately 16% THC and 1% CBG, with no CBD. Terpenes present include terpinolene, myrcene, and pinene. Users report feelings of arousal, tingling, and euphoria, while potential side effects include dizziness, paranoia, and dry mouth. Medicinally, Atomic Northern Lights has been used to help alleviate migraines, anxiety, stress, and pain.
