Atomic Northern Lights

hybrid

Atomic Northern Lights is a hybrid strain attributed to the Canadian breeder Dr. Atomic, who is said to have reworked the classic Northern Lights lineage to produce this variation.

About Atomic Northern Lights

The lineage of Atomic Northern Lights begins with the original Northern Lights, a cross between an Afghani indica and a Thai Haze. While the exact genetic composition is subject to speculation, it is reported that Canada’s Dr. Atomic recombined Northern Lights with strains previously used in its family tree to create this iteration. The resulting moderate-THC hybrid offers a flavor profile featuring woody and sweet notes, occasional peppery undertones, and a pungent floral aroma. Users report that the experience typically begins with feelings of arousal and happiness, which gradually transition into physical relaxation.

Plant characteristics

The plant exhibits a short, bushy stature. It flowers in approximately eight to nine weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor harvests in the Northern Hemisphere typically occur by mid-October, with the plant performing best in warm climates.
