Nothing overly memorable about this indica marijuana strain. A combination of White Russian and Northern Lights has created an ok pain relieving indica. There’s plenty of great pain relieving indicas, but this marijuana strain isn’t one.
Oh sure Russian Lights worked well at relieving pain.
However, there’s nothing to make Russian Lights stand out.
In other words what’s the point.
Both White Russian and Northern Lights are best marijuana strains on their own. Combining them might make stoner sense, but alas the phenotype probably still hasn’t been found.
The marijuana buds were dense, but easy to bust up. For an indica I’d say the buds were fairly dense, but not the most dense marijuana buds I’ve come across.
Russian Lights takes after White Russian when it comes to the toke. It’s a smooth to inhale and easy to exhale. Smoothing out the harshness associated with Northern Lights.
Both marijuana strains aren’t overly known for their taste.
Russian Lights doesn’t do much better. Its taste is almost none existent. Very subtle. White Russian is an Amsterdam marijuana type that was never bred for taste. Northern Lights can have a candied taste if your not hacking up a lung.
Russian Lights has a very subtle candied hint on exhale. But nothing overpowering. I’ve had Northern Lights with more powerful high and taste.
The marijuana strain is very much like the marijuana strains that were created in the Gen X days. Heavy sedate body buzz with a hint of taste.
These days enthusiasts expect more from their indica marijuana buds. They want taste to go with their body buzz. Plenty of indica marijuana types deliver, but Russian Lights isn’t one of them.
Again what’s the point?
Russian Lights did its job admirable at managing chronic pain. However, plenty of indica marijuana types do that. The strain lessened my pain. Made video game playing with Compton easier, but I’d probably not get it again.
