Growing Tips for Arctic Sun Seeds
Arctic Sun seeds are incredibly easy to grow, even if you have limited experience growing your own cannabis. Although this strain was originally crafted in Amsterdam, it requires warmth, sunlight, and fresh air to grow to completion. If you are going to take on this grow, you will need to replicate warm summers similar to those of the Mediterranean to provide it with the correct environment, indoors or outdoors. Indoor growers will need nutrient-rich soil, ample high-intensity lighting, and the perfect temperature range and humidity to produce favorable yields come harvest time. Outdoor growers with access to a greenhouse will have an easier time bringing this strain to harvest, as greenhouses provide a similar climate to that of an indoor grow and can be controlled throughout the duration of the grow cycle. If you don’t have access to a greenhouse, then you will need to plan out a window of clear skies and warm weather, typically during the late Spring and Summertime, depending on where you live, to bring this strain to fruition. Arctic Sun grows tall and will need the right amount of space to grow both vertically and laterally to grow without issue. Growing indoors, you will need to adjust the lights so that they don’t burn the top buds. Providing a consistent temperature range of 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit and ensuring relative humidity levels stay around 40-70% is critical for optimal growth. Outdoor cultivation requires warmth and humidity with lots of sunlight to produce bud-rich, resin-coated plants. Topping and Low-stress training (LST) are the best methods for this plant because they both adjust the canopy so that light penetration and air reach the lower levels of the plant. Arctic Sun grows tall, so adjusting the top of the plant or the canopy is crucial in reaching peak harvests. Routine maintenance on the branches and canopy will help increase yields. During the vegetative stage, you should provide 18-20 hours of light each day. You will need to change the light cycle from 18-20 hours to a 12/12 cycle to induce the flowering stage of growth. This change will get you through flowering and into harvest.
How to Germinate
Before you even plant your Arctic Sun female cannabis plants, you will first need to germinate these seeds. To do so, refer to our free germination guide, knowing that they are backed by our impressive 90% germination guarantee.
Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest
- Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Arctic Sun strain to harvest after a flowering period of 50-70 days.
- Yields: While Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 450 grams per plant. These yields are fantastic, especially when you consider that this grow is easy, even for first-time or novice cannabis cultivators. Keep in mind that these plants grow taller than your average cannabis strains, so that will need to be considered when harvesting these plants.
- Harvest: Outdoor grows should be ready to harvest around the middle to the end of October, depending on when you planted your seeds.
Arctic Sun Terpenes: Flowery Diesel
The Arctic Sun terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while limonene and myrcene are the secondary terpenes.
- Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – This terpene produces a peppery and spicy flavor and aroma when found in cannabis.
- Limonene: Secondary Terpene – Found mostly in the rinds of citrus fruits, this terpene helps with anxiety and improves lung function.
- Myrcene: Mother of All Terpenes – Myrcene can be found in a number of cannabis strains and provides the herb with an earthy and woody flavor and aroma.

I remember the day I decided to try my hand at growing my own cannabis. With a surge of excitement, I picked up a pack of seeds that promised an easy grow, and boy, did they deliver! Once I planted the seeds, the anticipation built up as I watched the little sprouts come to life. Each day brought new marvels; the vibrant green leaves unfurling and soaking up the sunlight was captivating! The aroma of the plants started to fill my space as they matured, and I couldn’t believe my eyes when the buds began to form. Harvest day was a dream—plump, sticky buds that looked like they were straight out of a magazine. The quality was out of this world! The smooth smoke and euphoric high exceeded my expectations and made all the effort worth it. This entire growing journey transformed not only my backyard but my appreciation for cannabis. I can’t wait to try my hand at another grow!

Grows quite quickly, my normal flowering time is 2 months but this took a week less to get harvested. I ended up with a decent amount of buds and found growing this plant to not be too difficult. It does however grow tall to be mindful of having enough space for it.

A great pick me up strain if you start dipping part way through the day. I never felt more productive than when I was smoking this. I can see why everyone compliments Pacific so much, shipping was so smooth and customer service was very helpful to me! Bought 5 seeds and got 5 germinated for a 5 star review!

You know that point in the day when you feel tired and don’t wanna work anymore, well take a little hit of arctic sun and watch your fatigue melt away….This weed has an earthy fresh flavor, minty almost! I was so proud to work with these plants, they were really tall and very productive too. I got nearly 500 G of weed, hardly had to blink an eye! These seeds practically manage their own dang selves. And I LIKE that!

I love the plant istelf. Arctic sun is very compact but very vibrantly colorful. I see whites, golds, oranges, and yellows. It’s so pretty! I am happy I tried this out. It’s been a great experience for me. Whenever I feel down, I just smoke a bowl of this and feel much better. If you have any reservations about buying, don’t worry! Pacific has great customer service and they’re always so helpful every time I call 🙂

Mmm these bright and frosty nugs are truly something special. I had never even heard of this strain before growing it with Pacific seeds. Their collection of strains is very extensive, I could peruse their online collection literally all day. Arctic sun is a great grow with some very frosty trichomes and a bright, intense, sativa laden high. You won’t be disappointed!!
