This weeks blog from Seedstockers shows the remarkable results from one of our cheapest high-performance autoflower seeds, Northern Lights Autoflower.
The genetics are well proven and totally stable after many years of breeding.
Seedstockers work with a breeder who chose a special, top quality Northern Lights mother plant with THC levels consistently above 22% to create the Seedstockers autoflower version.
The high THC levels remain in the autoflower version and is one of the main reasons for her popularity.
Northern Lights Autoflower delivers genuine XXL harvests, the central bloom tends to be longer and heavier than the rest.
This is an autoflower variety which appeals to growers with seriously powerful grow room lights, and responds very well with intense bud and resin production.
She grows well under 20 hours of daily light but some growers successfully grow her under 24 hour light from seed to harvest.
In general, most growers feel that growing under 20 hours of daily light is optimum, it tends to minimise the chance of nutrient deficiencies.
The original Northern Lights Auto grow diary containing this grow is here on the Autoflower Network.

This grow went smoothly from start to finish without complications. The Northern Lights parent genetics are known for their robust growing style, Northern Lights Autoflower is a tough indica dominant autoflower seed which grows easily under a wide range of conditions from soil to coco to hydroponics.
The genetics deliver great results with any grow method. Large and heavy blooms are quite normal with this variety, because Northern Lights Autoflower is able to deliver such high quality XL yields under a wide range of conditions we often recommend her to first time growers.
In this weeks grow the true XL potential of this variety is shown. She was grown in soil in a 15 litre container and grew steadily for the first few weeks.
Usually Northern Lights Autoflower starts getting taller during weeks 3-7, by this point the roots are established and able to draw up large amounts of nutrition.
Despite the indica genetics, Northern Lights Autoflower has been bred to grow into a large size, and in optimum conditions the top of the main bloom can reach 1.5 tall, though usually she stays around 1 metre tall.
As Northern Lights Autoflower approaches the last month of her life the side blooms can get heavy and need support so that they don’t collapse under their own weight.
The key to maximising the yields from this variety is to deliver maximum light intensity, side lighting is especially useful to increase the yield from the side blooms.
Nutrients should be increased steadily as the plant grows, this variety loves nutrients from any manufacturer, she isn’t fussy and likes to deliver bumper harvests however you grow her.
Northern Lights Autoflower also grows well outdoors, she takes around 90 days from seed to harvest.
For best results germinate the seeds indoors under 24 hour light and grow the seedlings for 2-3 weeks indoors before planting them outdoors. This gives the seedlings the best start in life, which is the best way to get good harvests later.
Starting the seedlings indoors also protects them from pests, birds and the worst of the weather.
Northern Lights Auto is one of the most reliable indica-dominant autoflower cannabis seed varieties in the Seedstockers collection, we recommend her to growers that want a heavy yielding variety that grows easily and has the breeding quality to deliver high THC results.
Indoor growers can expect great results from this simple yet high performance auto.
She grows well under 20 hours of daily light and is usually ready to harvest after 75 days. Occasionally you will find a heavier yielding phenotype which requires an extra week or two, but the heavy yields are worth the wait.
After a month or two in the jars to cure this variety has a fresh, earth and spicy aroma. You may detect hints of berry, citrus and fuel. Occasionally you will find an appealing aroma of fuel. And this is a great variety to smoke in the evening, where she delivers a relaxing and comforting experience with a strong high and a clear body stone which medical growers will appreciate.
Northern Lights Autoflower is a staff favourite for all the right reasons, but more importantly than that she is an affordably priced customer favourite.
