What is the True North strain?
True North is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 20.0% THC, known for its balanced effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
True North is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by Elemental Gardens, created by crossing the powerhouse True OG with a Northern Lights phenotype (Northern Lights #1 x Northern Lights #5). This exclusive strain represents a sophisticated blend of premium genetics that takes users on a 'cerebral flight through the upper stratosphere.' The strain showcases the best attributes of its legendary lineage, combining the potent, award-winning characteristics of True OG - a twice-crowned 'Best Indica' at the High Times Medical Cup - with the classic resinous, stable genetics of Northern Lights varieties that trace back to pure Afghani landrace origins from the Pacific Northwest breeding programs of the 1970s and 1980s. True North buds exhibit chunky, tall nugget structure with soft orange hairs protruding from stem to tip, striking an ideal balance between fluffy and dense texture that makes them suitable for both hand-breaking and grinding.
The strain's visual appeal is immediately impressive upon opening the container, offering striking optics and complex aromatics that appeal to even the most discerning cannabis critics. The nug structure primarily takes after its Northern Lights lineage, featuring the characteristic dense, resinous bud formation that Northern Lights genetics are renowned for. When broken down, True North maintains optimal consistency for rolling, remaining firm without becoming too granular, providing an excellent foundation for consumption. The strain's balanced hybrid characteristics make it versatile for any session and time of day, offering a 'make-it-what-you-will' experience that adapts to the user's needs and setting.

How do you grow True North?
True North appears to be a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, likely requiring intermediate growing experience due to its complex genetics combining True OG and Northern Lights lineage. Based on its parent genetics, the strain would likely prefer a flowering time of 8-10 weeks, with Northern Lights contributing stability and resilience while True OG adds potency. The plant structure would likely be medium height with good branching, suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Growers should expect dense, resinous buds with good trichome production inherited from both parent lines. The strain would benefit from proper support during flowering due to the dense bud structure, and optimal conditions would include consistent environmental controls for best results.
