I'm not very good at reports considering my sense of smell is very poor
I can say it's extremely sticky on the fingers and it has the same strong lemon, pine, fuel aroma as the clone parent and even though it's very fresh it still has a smooth taste and nice strong effect which lasts around 2 hours. It should get even better with time :)

THE MYTHICAL A5 HAZE MEETS OUR MALAWI KILLER TO CREATE OUR MOST POWERFUL, TRIPPY AND NARCOTIC HYBRID

Here at ACE Seeds we’ve done it again with Killer A5 Haze, creating a monstrous new sativa hybrid that has the potential to produce the most potent plants, with the highest amount of THC in our catalogue.

A5 Haze is one of the rarest mothers (and probably the most powerful one) belonging to the family of Dutch elite clones of Haze hybrids that Nevil Schoenmakers developed at the end of the 80s and that are still preserved to this day. This Northern Lights #5/Haze A mother is characterised by its extremely trippy and devastating potency, high production and by its incensed, organic and meaty aromas of authentic Dutch 'Old School' Haze with a greater influence from ancient Colombian sativas. The rarity of this A5 Haze mother is due to Nevil losing the Haze A male very early on, meaning that seeds were never produced in commercial quantities using this Haze A male.

With Killer A5 Haze our main goal was to create a sativa dominant hybrid that would maintain (and even exceed) the extreme potency, high vigour and high yields of the A5 mother, and we have achieved this by hybridising her with the killer phenotypes of our powerful Malawi, with which we have increased the THC content even further, reaching as high as 30% (the upper limit that cannabis plants can produce). At the same time we have considerably increased resin production and trichome size, and we have reduced the long flowering time of the A5 Haze to something more moderate (not only indoors, but also in its faster reaction to flowering outdoors) without having to introduce indica genetics. Despite its great sativa vigour and its very high production, Killer A5 Haze grows with a contained and manageable size, making it our sativa dominant hybrid with the highest production per m2.

In Killer A5 Haze we find 4 phenotypes:

- Haze dominant pheno: This phenotype is the one that shows the greatest Colombian sativa influence from the Haze A male, producing huge and beautiful colas with an excellent flower/leaf ratio, which mature with elegant and delicate reflowerings. Woody and incensed aromas of pure Haze. The resin production of this pheno is good, but not as extreme as in the following 3 phenotypes. Flowering time: 75-90 days.

- NL/Haze pheno: This pheno shows a greater indica influence from the Northern Lights, and therefore a smaller size, faster flowering and lower flower/leaf ratio. It is also the most faithful to the characteristics of the original A5 Haze mother, producing rounded and very resinous flowers with a silver appearance, which produces characteristic horn-shaped reflowerings at the end of flowering. Incensed, meaty (liver) and organic (petals of decaying flowers) aromas. Flowering time: 66-80 days.

- Haze/Malawi pheno: Sativa dominant and well balanced pheno in terms of displaying characteristics from both Haze A and Malawi parents. It produces huge, very dense colas, with an excellent flower/leaf ratio, with the gleaming resin coverage of our Malawi. It produces slight reflowerings in its final stages, although not as pronounced as in the first 2 phenos. Incense and woody Haze aromas, with the oily and resinous background of Malawi. Flowering time: 75-85 days.

- Silverish Malawi pheno: Monstrous sativa phenotype with a greater Malawi influence. Incredibly high flower to leaf ratio, very high production, with the classic huge trichomes and ovaries of our Malawi, and with a prodigious resin production that lends it an aggressive silverish appearance when mature, bringing the characteristics of Malawi Killer phenotypes to very extreme levels that have rarely been reached before. Flowering time: 75-85 days.

Killer A5 Haze is one of the first joint projects between ACE Seeds and Yo Sammy, a member of the small group of growers in South Holland who have preserved the elite clones of Nevil’s Haze hybrids for almost 3 decades. These Dutch elite 'old school' Haze clones were the fundamental parentals in the Netherlands of the 90s, used to develop the best Haze hybrids in History. Unfortunately, the best sativa qualities of these legendary Haze hybrids, and their unique incense terpene profile that led them to be globally recognised as the best sativa hybrids were diluted and brutalised (in particular over the last 2 decades), constantly mixed with indica or skunk genetics in an attempt to shorten their flowering time.

With these new projects, our priority will be to try to raise the bar of Sativa Haze breeding, by crossing these old elite Dutch Haze clones with elite parentals of our most worked sativa varieties, and also in organoleptic terms, experimenting with different types of incense profiles by hybridising elite parents in this regard.

We’d especially like to thank Karma for rescuing the A5 Haze mother, and for offering it to us for the development of Killer A5 Haze.
Special thanks to all the growers who helped us to test Killer A5 Haze for the last year and a half: Syd Barret, Spaventa, beanz, deepwaterdude, Buddler, Neiko and many others :huggg:

GENETICS: A5 Haze by Nevil (Northern Lights #5/HazeA) x Malawi Killer.
STRUCTURE: Excellent vigour. Branched sativa structure with medium internode distance, of a contained and manageable size and stretch.
BOUQUET: Dutch old school dark incensed Haze aroma, meaty (liver), with a strong organic/rotten background, with final touches of decomposing flower petals, resin and cured wood.
HIGH: Extraordinarily powerful, complex, profound and long lasting. Psychedelic beginning that completely changes visual, auditory and tactile perception, catapulting the psyche to new dimensions where there seems to be no tangible reality. As the effect develops, it produces an uncontrollable hilarity, later becoming more introspective and physical, producing strong dissociation of mind and body, and a strong final narcosis similar to opiates. Recommended only for the most intrepid and experienced psychonauts. It can cause panic and/or complete physical debilitation to users with low tolerance or without experience with strong sativas of this caliber. Nothing will be ever the same after trying Killer A5 Haze.

GROWING TIPS

Indoors, outstanding results can be achieved in terms of quality and production with a correct and abundant feeding and strong light intensity. A sativa hybrid that’s very well suited to SCROG culture due to its excellent branching and lateral production.

Outdoors, it can be cultivated up to 43º latitude, although it is a variety that works best in climates with hot summers and warm, dry autumn weather, due to the density and size that its flowers can reach.

We recommend high levels of nutrients for the whole cycle.

I bought three ACE seeds just over three years ago. Three fems. The package arrived with a huge round Ace sticker on back of package. Buggered if I know how it never got pinged. Ace fan in the mail room? Especially arriving in my neck of the southern temperate woods. (Think global). Anyway, kept them in the fridge and popped one a year. Last one powering along now, after a slow seasonal start (outdoor) re spring temps. The first two were very much typical from the all the pics I see here. But this one is more broad leaved and little different structure. Somewhat darker green. Guessing its fallen into more A5 genotype? Wondering which of the four phenos described by Dubi it might be? I was plugging for the silver pheno... but my eyes tell me perhaps not?

BTW, after three years in the fridge, this last KA5 seed was first to tail. Extraordinary vigour right out of the skin. Double the speed of last years fresh crosses. A testiment to the quality of breeding coming out of Ace. We all stand on the shoulders of giants no doubt... but there's still some good work going on. Lucky for us.

I had a bit of a look at Dubi's 'group' images at KA5 intro and it was a little hard to tell... given mine is still in leaf stage. Many a sativa leaf starts of a little wider in early stages. But if I had to take a guess groups 7/8/9 in the posted pics seem closest? Looking at all of those images it seems hard to go wrong either way dont it? Impressive grow out. One image of Panama just for some sativa contrast. Anyone able to hazard a guess from earlier growth phase which way this KA5 seems to be leaning?

I’ve got just one KA5 inside, it’s been nothing but metallic since flowering, day 63 …metallic has always been mean herb in my experience. I’m ok with that.

If you’re okay with that well so am I :biggrin:
Compliments for those gorgeous looking flower, beautiful work.
Similar sentiments for @JustGrowing420!
Beautiful work, buds look super dense and I really dig your pot size compared to the plant, says it all.
No signs of botrytis so it seems? Looking at the flower time it could be an issue depending on the environment.
Thank you both and all others being so kind of sharing their results with all of us out there, most valued and appreciated!

Thanks! No botrytis no nothing, just potent ganja that sends you to another dimension!!! :biglaugh:

First two phenos very dense buds indeed, the longest flowering one is a bit fluffy but also seems like the queen from these three, need to smoke lots more to judge :biggrin:

Also love the range of aromas, from liver/incense to sour garlic pine fuel, to floral/livery/spicy
