The original haze
The original haze
Thsi strain is probebly dead but thought I'd give it a try.
I lived in Santa Cruz back in the day of the haze and this is what I recall.....
The strain was developed by the Hayes brothers in Santa Cruz. They used a special soil formula that gave the plants all they needed. They grew these incredible plants in their backyard in Santa Cruz. They used a breeding pair consisting of one incredible gold Columbian male and a Thai female. The hybrid offspring wre varied and not consistent for years. They had many different types and strengths. They were all very powerful and delicate. Very stony. What's call Haze today is nowhere near what the Hayes brothers developed. I beleive the strain faded away with the Hayes brothers long ago.
I remember one of their plants specifically. They called it lambs wool as the flowers looked just like the material used in womens clothing by the same name. They had many types each year and it always fetched big bucks.
They sold exclusively through a broker in the Santa Cruz mountains in Boulder creek. He bought and sold virtually all the pot grown in the area and even had an inventory going back several years for sampling. He had many sampling parties that I remember very well.
There was the onslaught of Columbian weed being brought into San Franciso bay at that time and there were two basic strains; red and gold columbian. These were used as the base for much of the pot being grown there today.
The Hayes brothers worked hard to make sure that none of their seeds made it to the public but late in the 70's this same brojker took some to Mexican farmers and I don't know what happened to that effort. I believe the Haze strain became what it was because of the exceptional climate in Santa Cruz that allowed slow maturation of the flowers. These plants had very delicate flowers that broke apart easily. It was back bred using more Columbian genetics.
Personally, I don't believe any of that strain exists today. There are very few breeders that understand genetics these days and many things are sold using the Haze name that have nothing to do with this original haze.
I have one of the posters mentioned and would be glad to publish it if anyone still exists on this thread.

best smoke i've had to date was a haze, it turned purple and took forever. the earlier it was picked the more paranoia came through the high. I can't wait to let TomHill's haze go the distance cuz i crave what all of you speak of about the haze.
Sam's ohazexskunk 1 is looking and smelling outrageous at 10 weeks.

Dunno if it's worth anything (yet)... but seedbay has African Haze, from time to time. I picked up a pack since it's Original Haze X Bushman.
With my indica sensitivity... figured a cross with an African sativa would get better results than afghani (Skunk).
Sure hope you find that poster!
Stay Safe!
