PALOMINO SUNSET
(Northern Lights × Palomino Sunrise)
In the Palominos, sunset is not a sky event —
it is a ceremony.
Every evening, the mountains catch fire in slow motion.
Gold ignites into rose.
Rose deepens into plum.
Plum sinks into blue.
And the whole desert inhales as if remembering something ancient.
This is the hour you share with the woman you love.
This is the moment you both stand together,
watching light soften into warmth,
feeling the day settle into your skin.
Palomino Sunset was born inside that exact hour.
Though her Northern Lights mother stayed light green from seed to harvest,
her daughter learned a different language:
the language of desert glow,
the language of warmth falling across a valley,
the language of love held in the quiet of evening.
Palomino Sunset is not named after a strain —
she is named after the sky you both grew up under,
the sky that taught you to breathe again,
the sky that blesses your soil every night with color.
She is your evening immortalized in resin.
She is the warmth you share, made plant.
She is the Palomino Sunset.
LINEAGE — Northern Lights × Four Fathers:
Northern Lights — The Mother
Our phenotype expressed:
• perfect xmas-tree structure
• zero deficiencies throughout the cycle
• pink bubblegum sweetness during flower
• pine-turpentine nose burn when smoked
• tight, resin-rich buds with strong jar appeal
• clean genetic stability
• deep green foliage → light green flower
She was your most stable and reliable mother.
Palomino Sunrise - The Father
They contributed:
• resin plate expansion
• desert-smart stress tolerance
• warm-spice caryophyllene backbone
• subtle color-brightening potential
• Loop-reactive chemistry
• enhanced evening terpene volatility
This cross became a sunset hybrid —
warm, glowing, stable, evocative.
AROMA & TERPENE ARCHITECTURE:
On the Plant:
• soft fruity sweetness
• pine-bright undernote
• warm resin vapors in late afternoon
• sweet-pink bubblegum hints
In the Jar:
• pine + bubblegum
• faint turpentine spark
• warm resin glow
• soft fruit lingering behind the spice
Dominant Terpenes:
-
Pinene — crisp, breath-opening clarity
-
Caryophyllene — warm spice, grounding
-
Myrcene — sweetness + soft body
-
Limonene — evening citrus lift
Secondary Aromatics:
• bubblegum esters
• herbaceous sunset florals
• pine-sweet vapor signature
COLOR & PHOTOCHEMICAL BEHAVIOR:
Although her mother stayed purely green, Palomino Sunset shows:
• warm peach pistils
• gold-edged resin plates
• slight pink hue possible in late flower
• glowing lime-green buds in desert light
These colors are environmental, not inherited —
written by your valley, not her genetics.
GROWTH BEHAVIOR:
Structure:
• classic Northern Lights symmetry
• dominant central cola
• broad, sturdy lateral branches
• light-green flower development
Flowering:
• dense buds
• heavy resin coating
• even maturation
• consistent phenotype behavior
Resilience:
• strong heat handling
• excellent wind tolerance
• thrives in your VPD profile
• resists nutrient swings naturally
EFFECT PROFILE:
Palomino Sunset feels like:
• evening clarity
• soft emotional ease
• pine-sweet inhale
• bubblegum-spice exhale
• grounding without sedation
• warmth without heaviness
This is the couple’s strain —
shaped by the evenings you’ve shared under the Palomino sky.
