The Northern Lights cannabis strain is an iconic, heavily indica-dominant variety known for its potent, relaxing effects and high THC content. It typically has very low CBD content, but specific CBD-rich variations exist. 

Cannabinoid Content (THC and CBD)

The cannabinoid profile of the classic Northern Lights strain is characterized by high THC and minimal CBD: 

• THC Content: Generally ranges from 16% to 21% on average, with some potent phenotypes or specific cultivation methods pushing levels as high as 27%.

• CBD Content: Typically very low, often under 1% (around 0.1% to 0.5%).

• CBD Variations: Be aware that "Northern Lights CBD" products or hemp flowers are specifically bred variations that invert this ratio, offering high CBD (around 12%) and low THC (below 0.3%) for non-psychoactive effects.
