Haze (Serial Hybrid)

๐Ÿ”ฅ Culture First mentioned: Ep. 222

A legendary narrow-leaf drug cultivar developed through serial hybridization in Santa Cruz, California during the 1970s. Each year a new male was crossed into existing females, incorporating Mexican, Colombian, Thai, and South Indian genetics over approximately five years of successive crosses.

Rob Clark explains that Haze was strictly narrow-leaf with no wide-leaf Afghan genetics involved. The development ran from roughly 1974-1978, created by 'Bob and Jerry' (the Haze Brothers). Clark confirms the 1976 poster as a landmark. All Haze plants were grown in greenhouses due to their extremely late maturation -- they couldn't finish outdoors even in Santa Cruz. David Watson knew both creators and later brought the genetics to Amsterdam.
