Overview
Aurora Indica is an Indica-dominant strain with genetics that come in around 90% Indica and 10% Sativa. It’s a cross between Afghan and Northern Lights and has medium levels of THC, averaging around 15 to 18%. Plus, it has smaller levels of CBD, upwards of 1%.
Strain Effects
The heavy full-body effects of Aurora Indica are sedating and provide complete relaxation while keeping your mind clear. Given its highly sedative effects, it’s a great strain to smoke when you get home from work and want to melt right into the couch and put on a movie. It can provide a deep and restorative sleep while also knocking out pain and stress thanks to its full-body buzz.
Growing info
This is a great strain for first-time growers because it’s easy to cultivate. When growing indoors you won’t need a ton of space because the plant doesn't normally exceed 100 cm. In fact, the height could be much shorter. You can even try growing Aurora Indica in a “Sea of Green” setup if you really want to max out your yields. If you choose to grow outdoors, you can expect a mid to late September harvest. And finally, yields can max out at 500 grams per M2.
Appearance and Aroma
Aurora Indica grows thick, dense, and bulky buds with lots of sticky resin. The nugs are covered in amber-colored hairs along with cloudy trichomes. And the aroma of this strain during the flowering cycle is hashy with spicy herbal smells.
MSNL Editors Verdict
With fast flowering times, ease of growing, and a therapeutic potency, Aurora Indica is a fantastic strain for these reasons and more. Many medical patients turn to this strain for its ability to reduce bodily aches and pains, providing relief to help them feel better and get a good night’s rest.

There are lots of great flavours to experience with Aurora Indica. The taste is very similar to its smell. You get hashy and spicy tasting notes, combined with earthy and sweet flavours upon inhalation. And with each additional hit, the notes become slightly citrusy for a tantalizing treat on your taste buds.

Always looking for a good couchlock, and this strain certainly brings it. Not recommended if you need to go out and get stuff done.

"Works well in small spaces"
Review by Lula
I only have a small indoor space, and this did really well there. It is a serious smoke though, hard to believe something so strong comes from something so small.

"Get Afghani right off the bat"
Review by Joshua
This is a serious Afghani smoke, which is one of my favorites, mostly because it's one of the only things that helps with my insomnia. But I have to admit, I've become partial to that skunky smell too

"Do wish it wasn't quite so strong"
Review by Kim
Wow, the other reviews aren't wrong when they all say that this is a seriously powerful strain that carries some serious knockout damage. Sometimes I wish these indicas weren't so incredibly strong, just because I still need to get stuff done!

"Woah, knockout"
Review by Ace
Don't make plans if smoking this at any point during the day you need to move. It hits you hard and will knock you out. Watching a movie was too much for me.
