Northern Limez
Also known as: Northern Lime, Limez
Northern Limez Strain Overview
Northern Limez is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing the classic indica-dominant Northern Lights with the sativa-dominant Lime Kush. This combination aims to blend the relaxing, body-heavy effects of Northern Lights with the uplifting, citrus-forward profile of Lime Kush. The strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create a balanced hybrid with pronounced flavor and versatile effects, though its exact origin and breeder are not widely documented, making it a somewhat niche or regional variety in some markets.
Visually, Northern Limez typically produces dense, resinous buds with a structure leaning toward its Northern Lights heritage, often displaying a mix of deep green and purple hues, complemented by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of trichomes. The aroma is dominated by sharp, zesty lime and citrus notes, underpinned by earthy, piney undertones from its Northern Lights lineage, with a flavor profile that translates smoothly to the taste, offering a refreshing, tangy smoke or vapor.
Notable features include its relatively high THC content, which can range from 18% to 24%, and its balanced effects that cater to both recreational and potential therapeutic users. The strain is appreciated for its ability to induce relaxation without excessive sedation, making it suitable for evening use. Due to its limited commercial availability, information on Northern Limez may vary, and it is often grown by enthusiasts or in specific regions, with its genetics sometimes appearing in crossbred varieties.
