Critical Lights
Critical Lights Strain Overview
Critical Lights is a very successful combination of Northern Lights #5 and Critical cannabis strains. It produces exceptional results for the novice and the experienced grower alike and is 90% indica in genetic composition. Developed by Expert Seeds, this strain represents a powerful hybrid that has garnered attention from both recreational and medicinal cannabis users for its impressive yields and consistent potency. The genetic lineage combines two legendary strains, with Critical contributing its massive yield potential and Northern Lights #5 providing stability and distinctive aromatic qualities.
This plant grows medium to tall in height and produces big yields of easily manicured buds with a high bud to leaf ratio. The bud size and density is such that staking or netting will be necessary in order to support the buds and prevent the stems from snapping. The flowers contain a potent THC content of 21%, fueling a high that is fast-acting and long-lasting. Both flavour and aroma feature a nice blend of spice and fruit from the NL#5 and Critical parents. The strain's indica dominance makes it particularly suitable for evening use, offering users a deeply relaxing experience while maintaining enough mental clarity to remain functional.

Critical Lights Strain Growing Information
Indoors growers can expect to harvest between 500 - 600 gr/m2 with 8 weeks flowering. Outdoors yields are a terrific 1200 - 1500 gr/plant with harvest time expected in the middle of September in the northern hemisphere. This is an easy-to-moderate difficulty strain suitable for both novice and experienced growers. FLOWERING TIME 56 days (8 weeks). The strain can be grown indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouses. Despite such big yields, Critical Lights remains a medium size for most of the grow cycle—a reflection of its indica dominance. The strain is known for massive yields (thanks to its Critical influence), so structural assistance is usually required to prevent branches from snapping. String and stakes can be used to support branches with particularly swollen colas.
