Northern Jungle
Also known as: Jungle Northern, Northern Jungle Haze
Northern Jungle Strain Overview
Northern Jungle is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from two legendary parent strains. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records, it appears to have emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create a strain that combined the cerebral effects of sativas with the physical relaxation of indicas. The strain represents a deliberate attempt to blend diverse genetic lineages into a balanced hybrid expression.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, resinous structure characteristic of its indica heritage. The flowers display a vibrant green color often accented with purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange pistils weave through the dense floral clusters. The visual presentation suggests careful breeding for both aesthetic appeal and resin production.
Northern Jungle is noted for its complex aromatic profile that evolves during the curing process. The initial fragrance combines earthy and pine notes with subtle citrus undertones, while breaking apart the buds releases more pronounced fruity and floral scents. The smoke tends to be smooth with a flavor profile that mirrors the aroma, leaving a pleasant aftertaste that many users describe as slightly sweet with herbal notes. The strain's balanced effects and appealing sensory characteristics have contributed to its popularity among both recreational and medicinal users.

Northern Jungle Strain Growing Information
Northern Jungle is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it thrives in controlled environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to reach medium height (1-1.5 meters indoors, 1.5-2 meters outdoors) with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training. Northern Jungle responds well to organic nutrients and requires good air circulation to prevent mold in dense buds. The strain shows good resistance to common pests and diseases but benefits from regular monitoring.
