Northern Lights is a legendary Indica, and its genetics are believed to trace back to ancient Afghani and Thai landrace strains.

This 95/5 Indica-dominant hybrid delivers deeply grounding effects, paired with blissful mental ease that feels both relaxing and euphoric. Expect major couchlock after a few hits.

Northern Lights ranks among the strongest strains in Arete’s catalog, delivering serious potency even for experienced users.

Arete’s Northern Lights contains 31.1% THCa with 32.3% total active cannabinoids. Its terpene content reaches 2.1% with creamy, herbal, and nutty aromatics that enhance the overall session.

Any seasoned user will tell you that THCa produces the exact same effects as Delta-9 THC. This is because THCa is the precursor to Delta-9, meaning THCa transforms into Delta-9 THC when heated, like from the spark of a lighter.

At first glance, you’ll notice that Northern Lights lives up to its iconic status, with dense, dark green buds featuring subtle purple accents and exceptional frost.

Crack open a nug, and creamy, herbally notes hit first, followed by nutty undertones that create a rich, cozy aromatic profile perfect for autumn nights.

This aroma translates directly into flavor with every hit, delivering the same creamy, herbal, and nutty notes that make this strain instantly recognizable to Northern Lights fans.

If you’re into complex, layered aromas that translate into ultra-specific flavors, this strain delivers a sensory experience that’s genuinely unmatched.

Northern Lights is becoming increasingly popular for good reason: it delivers the euphoric, uplifting experience that made it a cultural icon.

Arete’s Northern Lights is one of the most potent batches we’ve tried, thanks to its generous THCa content that naturally converts to classic Delta-9 THC.

Expect to melt into the moment with this potent cultivar. Typical effects when consuming Northern Lights include:

• Dreamy euphoria and mental calm
• Full-body relaxation is ideal for unwinding
• Gentle sedation is perfect for nighttime use
• Stress relief and mood-soothing warmth
• Long-lasting effects that carry you through the evening

Best for nighttime use or when you need serious wind-down energy, this legendary strain practically screams cozy blankets, horror movies, and candlelight.

If you’re after a rich, creamy smoke with iconic landrace lineage and powerfully relaxing effects, get your hands on this October essential. For more products and information about Arete, head over to aretehemp.com.
