Aka: O Haze; Haze Brothers Original Haze
Haze-Lineage
Haze Brothers -> Sam the Skunkman (Cultivators Choice) -> Wernard (Positronics); Neville (The Seed Bank); Eddie Reedeker (Flying Dutchmen)
Sam the Skunkman, who was the breeder of the first commercial available "Original Haze" out of the Haze-Brothers genetics, on Haze:
"The main Haze Brother, R was gone, retired in Mexico by 82 he did not come back for 10 years. He was the one that created O Haze. The second Haze Brother J quit growing O Haze about 1980 and only grew Skunk #1 after that... and anyway recently he told me he did not sell any Haze seeds to anyone else, ever. The Haze Bros had a falling out in the late 70's and stopped talking to one another, for certain they did not sell seeds as the Haze Bros to anyone. Both the Haze Bros were close friends of mine and both were close neighbours for years, J lived a few hundred meters from my house until he departed to Mexico."
More History Of Haze
In 1988 Neville introduced the first Haze to Holland. The 'Haze x NorthernLights F1-Hybrid' had it's origins in the United States, where the 'Haze Brothers had been growing the Sativa plants since the 70's. The price in 'The Seed Bank' catalogue was then $100 for 10 seeds. It nearly became extinct beginning of the 80's because growers were looking for easier varieties. The Haze brothers eventually retired, but first made a trip to the Netherlands, where they met with Neville, a breeder whos name has often been associated with the Haze and its hybrids even before he was 'the king'. Neville acquired Haze seeds from them, preserving the strain and using it for many crosses. Haze requires proffesional care and alot of patience because of its long season.. but it has been very good for hybridization. Today, the Haze variety is found in many crosses that are available, and is a favourite to many 'Sativa Connoisseurs'
The first Haze is vintage masterpiece of cannabis breeding - a harmonious blend of complementary equatorial genotypes that's widely regarded as the purest and most powerful Sativa ever created.
Haze started out as a multiple-Sativa hybrid with roots in Central America, South India and Thailand. Developed in the days before indoor growing and cultivated below 30°N, her breeders were not restricted by factors like height, yield or short summers. As indoor growing gained popularity in the Eighties, true Haze began to disappear. Though smokers still adored the soaring high, growers found her slow flowering, low yields and unstoppable height-gain impractical for indoor production.
Indoor-Specific Haze, aka (Super) Silver Haze
Silver Haze was the first seed strain to offer a solution by delivering the full-strength Haze experience in a fatter, faster, more compact form. Together with NL#5xHaze (her taller sister), Silver Haze helped reverse the decline of the psychedelic Sativa. As soon as such frosted, pleasingly dense tropical crops could be produced efficiently with lights, ganja lovers all across the globe were able to sample that supreme high and the Haze cult rapidly spread far beyond its original circle of devotees.
The original Haze has had both its outrageous height gain and interminable flowering period brought under control by breeding with an extra-potent, non-dominant individual from the Northern Lights line to make (Super) Silver Haze. The dark Afghanica also throws its weight behind the feathery Sativa budding pattern, adding bulk without affecting flower formation.
Silver Haze buds are composed of long, silky pistils sprouting from oval calyxes which surge along the stem and branches to fill the gaps between internodes. Afghani influence is seen in the strain's thick layers of silver resin glands and the way her calyxes swell, adding density in the final weeks of flowering.
