01 / Strain overview
A familiar name on different labels.
Royal Queen Seeds writes Northern Light. Vision Seeds uses Northern Lights. We bring these names together as a reading guide, without claiming the products are genetically identical. Each manufacturer provides a description for its specific version.
Do not start with one universal Northern Lights specification. Compare the brand and seed designation below first. Then consult the reported background in the linked source. A name family can be useful without smoothing over the differences.
02 / Seed designation
Versions side by side
“Fem” is catalogue shorthand for feminized. “AutoFem” combines autoflower and feminized.

03 / Reading the name
What do “#1” or “S1” add to the name?
Keep these additions in a source record. They are different notations and should not be silently substituted for one another. A background entry reading Northern Lights #1 and another reading Northern Light S1 remain separate manufacturer statements. They do not form a family tree independently reconstructed here.
Worth knowing
Are Northern Light and Northern Lights exactly the same seeds?
The names alone do not establish that. RQS and Vision Seeds use different product names and descriptions. Treating them as equivalent requires product documentation, not merely similar spelling.
Is Northern Lights always autoflower?
No. The sources below include both feminized and autoflower versions. Read the complete name and type designation, rather than Northern Lights alone.
