  Breeder's Description - 'Northern Light x Shiva'
This cross has many fans. It was the starting point for many of the special "White Strains". Retained that super Shiva taste, but the stone is something else. Mix of two of the best kinds, very dense buds. A very pretty lady if you had to have a photo of just one plant. This is it.

Has a 56 day flowering time, shows preflowers at around 6 weeks. Good germination rates, though the original F1 seeds were quite tiny.

Aroma is very fruity, like juicy fruit gum. The smell is about a 2 while in the veg stage, and about 5 when in flowering. Most of the smell picks up while drying after harvest.

The high is mainly couchlock, a 7 to 8 on potency. It takes a few minutes to really kick in, but once it does, it's there to stay for hours, a very long lasting stone. It has some good euphoric qualities to it, and it's a great stone to watch movies on. But it is a creeper sort of stone. A great smoke for evenings to unwind with.

The flavor is very sweet, with a little hash taste to it, that kind where you have to keep licking your lips, cause it's that good. It also has a good amount of frosty buds, that just glisten all over. Some pistils turn a purple color, some phenos the pistils turned a brownish red. Bulk picks up in the last 2 weeks, so be patient and she'll reward you greatly. If the temps are cool while flowering, the fan leafs will turn different shades, very beautiful.

It had an average stretch when flowering was induced, about half its size. It is a bushy plant, with good side branching, but flower early if you like a more columnar plant, it does great both ways. Cloning is also easy, most show roots within 1 week. One of the best all around plants I have. I would give it a higher overall rating, but the hermaphrodite tendency when there is any kind of light leak, kept it at 7. I just had one plant from the orginal seeds that had a few bananas, but also had the best stone of them all, go figure.
