Northern Lights #5 Haze is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar bred from the crossing of NL #5 and Haze BX1. This lineage blends the genetic characteristics of two well-established foundations to create a plant that flowers in 70 days. It is cultivated effectively in both indoor and outdoor environments, where it is known to produce a high yield. While its growth requires a moderate level of expertise, the resulting plants demonstrate the reliable structural traits of its specific parentage.
The terpene profile is led by terpinolene, with myrcene present as the secondary component and caryophyllene rounding out the tertiary levels. This chemical composition dictates the sensory experience, offering a distinct aromatic character that translates into its flavor profile. As a THC-dominant strain testing at approximately 18.5% THC with 0% CBD, the experience is defined by this specific balance of these three primary volatile compounds.
The effects of Northern Lights #5 Haze are characterized by a sense of being uplifted and happy, making it a suitable choice for users seeking to enhance creativity. Beyond its creative applications, the strain is frequently utilized in social settings and for tasks requiring sustained focus. This hybrid-sativa serves as an effective option for those targeting specific functionality, though the strain currently has no recorded offspring in its genetic lineage.

PMC11060501: antinociception via NO/PGE2/TNF-α inhibition; associated with cerebral sativa profiles; least clinically characterised of major terpenes.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Antifungal, antiviral, decongestant; activates CB1/CB2 at 10–60% THC efficacy per Israeli receptor study (NORML 2025); highly volatile (bp 50–66°C); limited clinical data.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.

morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
