I never stop thinking about Sam's story of the rootbeer phenotype in haze, I think rootbeer would be the best tasting and smelling cannabis ever

So what do you think the best chances of finding it are? Do you think it's possible to make a rootbeer pheno from breeding other strains, and if so, what stock would you start with? Has anyone else run across a rootbeer pheno in haze or anything else?

Cool! Do you know which one? How common the pheno is?

LP #1. The Lemon Pledge pheno was more common, the Rootbeer didn't pop up as often. Some people got lucky and found it in a single pack, others reported running multiple packs before finding a keeper as I recall.

Good topic, mummy! I was intrigued by the skunkman's mention of a rootbeer pheno as well.

Grew some bagseed from some commercial that came from Arizona about 5 years ago.Finished early Oct.;had dark brown leaves and buds,and tasted like "fizzy" rootbeer.I always wondered what strain that might have been.

I want rootbeer haze so bad.

I wonder how rootbeer-y that Love Potion pheno is, I read some threads where people talked about it. Seemed like everyone was more interested in the lemon pheno which makes me wonder...

Here is what Sam said in post #94 of the "question for Sam Skunkman about original haze" thread.

To be honest the purple Hazes were maybe stronger but not as clear or as up and high. I liked the lime greens with maybe a bit of Thai blood. I do remember a med dark purp Haze that tasted just like root beer, amazing. I also had a Kerala that tasted just like Vics Metholated it was Camphor for sure, strong as hell but not as clear as I like.
I grew mex seeds from a bag of weed in 1965.

That sounds fantastic.


Rootbeer x Ice Cream = Rootbeer Float? Cream soda pheno's?

that would be so awesome

I'll venture 10:1 over a 50 year period of seeking it out.

yeah, I have a feeling that finding it in pure haze again would be like hitting the mega millions :-(

Mummy I'd say the old hazes are your best bet. TomHill's or OT's from ace, or the O.haze from either seedsman or dutchman(I can't remember which).

Well, I have a bunch of Tom Hill F2's but from what I hear, Tom's portion of the haze gene pool is mostly citrus flavors which is cool but I haven't heard any reports of a rootbeer leaning pheno in his stock.

I have a bunch of Sam's haze/skunk1 F1's and a bunch of Sam's Thai haze/skunk1 F2's as well as a bunch of Sam's mixed freebies x haze/skunk1

I bought Original Haze from The Flying Dutchman and all of those seeds were dead :-(

Reading the Durban Poison thread, I saw someone talk about some rootbeer-ish flavors in Durban, so I have some Durban x Durban (Acapulco Gold x C99) to look through.

Seedsman's Original Haze is out of stock

I got some seeds from a local seed vendor that are Haze x Acapulco Gold

I guess the next logical step is to order some OT Haze, I started reading the OT Haze thread last night, it sounds like there are some really complex flavors floating around in the darker plants
