89 NL5

89 NL5 is a sativa dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 24-30% on average, with 1% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The 89 NL5 high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. Because of these effects, 89 NL5 is often chosen for managing mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

On the palate, expect coffee and chocolate up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. Each exhale leaves a coffee-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has dense grape-shaped forest green nugs with cool blue undertones, fiery orange hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

In the garden, 89 NL5 is a demanding plant best left to experienced growers, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Dialed-in climate control and careful pruning are repaid with exceptional bag appeal and top-shelf potency. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Nl5 family — see 89 NL5 BX and Exodus Cheese x Jack Herer x NL5 Haze Mist for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
