I’m probably not as well versed in strain names vs. your usual cannabis-friendly person, but I knew and remembered THIS name, so that’s saying something right there. NL is everything it’s cracked up to be…in every way. I’m much more of an indica person anyway, but this is a really unbelievably amazing strain. (This is coming from a 30+ smoker/vaper/etc, for whatever that’s worth.) The only not wonderful effect is very dry mouth, as others have mentioned. A small price to pay, though!

Mild, boring, flower and leaf taste/smell. Don't understand what the hype is about, in 30 years of smoking I've never come across a good version of it. One of the worst strains out there in my opinion-

- perfect habitable zone – smooth takeoff / soft landing - can couch lock or be energized enough to make a cup of tea and perhaps take that badly needed pee -

I am curious if anyone has read up on the history of old school strains like NL and SK1? I have never seen such fairy tales in my life or outright made up history. This strain supposedly came from an Indian in Washington state, Sk1 came from Sam the Skunkman ( David Watson) and the Haze strain came from the Haze Brothers who are a figment of Mr Watsons imagination. Big Bud also was clone only snuck out of Washington and they all hit the Dutch scene at the same time period. if I had to guess when the Sacred Seed collective was raided by the DEA Mr David Watson said he was arrested and after making bail went back to the scene and the seeds were all in a dumpster. That sounds like a lie so I say he is a DEA agent who took the Seeds and flew to Holland and was introduced to the Dutch under the Alias Sam Selenzy. He was introduced as Sam Selenzy by none other than Ed Rosenthal. All the strains listed above were taken to Holland by Watson and he started getting the cannabis cup started so the DEA could kick off operation Green Merchant. Having the Cannabis cup was the best way to get all the top Cannabis cultivators together in one place. During OGM ( operation Green merchant) in 90 or 91 Mr Neville Schoenmaker was arrested in Australia and the USA tried to extradite him. He made bail and never had to go face us charges. Is it not interesting that David Watson had the only legal Cannabis grow in Holland from 85-91 to my knowledge but had that revoked in 91 where he fled to England and received a job in GW pharma. I truly wish that I could get any of the people who were there and know the truth because light needs to be shed on the lies that hold villains as heroes.

Was a favorite of mine back in High School. 22 yrs after I graduated (now), it’s in my top 3 for sure. Euphoria, blended with a warm comforting body high. Would recommend for anyone that will ever use Cannabis…a must try.
