In my experience its just the changing of the times. The friends i have that quit mainly did it because it became so potent that they didn't find it enjoyable anymore. And anyone that remembers the lime green brickweed from yesteryear knows what i mean. It didn't have jacked up thc levels and the buzz was so social and comfortable. You could smoke an ounce of it and build a deck behind the house. And i enjoy the mainstream hybrids sometimes but ive learned to hit it and put it down. Long gone are the days of rolling joints and blunts for me, even with the landraces .I also have this experience with some of my friends quitting cannabis - at some point, it just made them feel uncomfortable.
Goeie môre Uncl Ben,That's not "O. haze". It's just another knock off. Thai was very recessive in the gene pool of the original Sam the Skunkman haze. He told me the Thai and Indian was added later to the Mex X Col F1., that;s why they're both in parentheses in the original mix "trademark". Whatever....
Will the real "haze" please stand up?
If you're after the high that "haze" is supposed to, hyped to be, which I assume is the old sativa "uplifting, euphoric, psychedelic" stuff, you'd be better off not chasing your tail and buy something like Ace's Golden Tiger, Thai's X Malawi's. Malawi X Panama or Zamaldelica
Golden Tiger
Genetics Koh Chang Thai, Hmong Thai x Malawi Killer Type sativa Cultivation indoor/outdoor/greenhouse THC 25-30% CBD >0.5% CBG 1% High very powerful, stimulating, cerebral Aroma floral, spicy, lemon, earthy Flowering time (indoor) 11-14 weeks Harvest time (outdoor) November Yield high Plant...shop.mandalaseeds.com
50% Thai, 12.5% Lumbo & 37.5% DC…?
Looks a lot like thisOriginal Haze x Skunk#1 s1 from a 40 years old cutting.
Goeie môre Uncl Ben,
Would Mama Thai be okay?

Yeah, I don't think anyone on this forum would understand what ph's Yield-O-Rama was all about (I remember we both thought it was bullshit) and Potroast pleading for a just a gram per watt for God's sake!!!Gosh, wish I knew how to grow big plants.
Digging through the BCGA archive, I found this which may be of interest to you:Response:

High Uncle Ben,
My name is Sjoerd , I am one of the growers/ gene finders for the Flying
dutchmen seed co. In answer to your Haze queries: The Haze that we posses is
the original cross between the 4 sativa types you mentioned. It is however
not from Wernard, but from a guy known as Sam the Skunkman Sam the miracle
man etc. He created and patented the Skunk #1, the original hazes and also
introduced many other fine varieties to Holland in the early 80's. The
advantage we had was the hectares of greenhouses we had to select good
parents, and the patience to test the combining abilities between many of
the already selected parent plants. Since the Haze genetics came to holland
it was not inbred extensively so I can't tell you in which generation
they are in you would be better to ask rc. As for atributes the Haze we
have is the green haze. It was selected specifically for breeding purposes
that is to say don't expect 20% t.h.c until after you create your own F1
hybrid. from what I know Haze reacts better when you hybridise them than
when you inbreed them, It brings out the best in them.
Given the choice I would cross the haze with our Afghan Skunk or with the
Pot of Gold, it's more work as these are F1 plants already but if you know
what to look for you will get very interesting results. always choose a
minimum of 5 parents of each sex and try all the combinations to pinpoint
the best combining abilities. The Thaitanic is an interesting choice and one
in five do show a small number of male flowers late in flowering, mabey more
in the next generation, careful selection and some gentle light stress on
cuttings will give you an idea of how hermy they might be. the photoperiod
could start on 13/11 then to 11/13. or 12/12 from the start. If you want to
breed then an immediate short day would speed the plants up alot plus they
get mighty large if you veg them more than a couple of weeks. please write
back if you have any questions i will be happy to help. Sjoerd

I have 3 of the originals left.

I might add, I heard that their haze only took 10-13 weeks to flower compared to 12-16 weeks by others, and I wanted to find out why, so I e-mailed them to ask. Ot1, I recall you said the best haze took up to 18 weeks to flower, any comments? Peace<br>

Yep, Posi haze is mostly Columbian x Mexican with small amounts of thai and south Indian. It was created by "the Haze brothers" in California 20 years ago. Here's an email I got from Homegrown fantasy two days ago:<img src="/resources/spacer.gif" alt="" width=8>High there 76 ED !!

Our Haze is indeed from Posi's genetics, the flowering times do differ. Hydro tends to be quicker. Bio ( on soil) we find cantake 1 - 2 weeks longer. 10 - 13 weeks would be most likely on a hydro base. Of course there is some variation from growroom to growroom, even though it's the same strain. Haze is one of our most popular strains and is well worth the wait. A real uphigh of cosmic proportions.

Wishing you stickey fingers,Isolde & John>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Eric, I agree, that's why I fought to grow the thai outdoors, only bringing it in to the HPS when temps went below 50 degrees. I just can't get potent plants growing indoors! I had a haze hybrid from Neville 9 years ago, and made thousands of seeds, but my house was broken in to, and all seeds stolen! Since then, getting more haze has been a real obsession with me. Peace<br>

Haze is a sativa hybrid. If I remember right, they mentioned mexican,columbian and thai in varying degrees. This would explain some of the variation I saw in the hybrids Nevil sent me. Some of the extreme sativa characteristics included one plant with a 6" sport in 24hrs. That happened right after the induction of flowering. Outdoors they would have been giants.

hey toker2 if im right i believe that haze is a satavia that has south american genetics
<br>
my experience with the satavias is that outside they will knock you on the floor with a smile
<br>
but the same clone inside will just give you a smile..
<br>
so your assesment is correct..hell to tell you the truth EVERY STRAIN i have tried outdoors my friends grew inside and mine is always more potent....<br>
All comes down to what youre use to i suppose and that includes tolerance. My daughter and her friends prefer concentrates. Pens, wax and all that shit. For the most part they consider flower an inferior product. One hit of wax makes me feel like one miserable bastard but that stuff is the new rave. Sometimes i miss picking seeds out of some nice brick to roll up a spliff. It was just as much a social ritual as it was about getting high and it had good time vibes you just don't find in todays scene. Now its about getting as high as possible as fast as you can. Thats why its important to preserve these landraces more than ever. Id rather smoke low thc weed with no bag appeal than something that makes me want to put on a straight jacket. Just one mans perspective. Like i said im getting old hahaI can’t tell what cause the negative reaction some of my friends and relatives have. Even I react negatively to a few strains and I can’t tell why neither because I can enjoy one pheno and not her sister made with the same DNA, strange
Oh I will spank the crap out of all of it anytime I feel like it, just like always.So you or Maha going to enter it at the Haze cup @piffcon next year and show us it really is and not just to you 2 .
I'm not saying it's not great and must be as defo has alot of fans but BEST can be in eyes of the holder.
Where were you @piffcon Haze cup last June ? , did you even attend ?
If you don't enter next year @piffcon or at least turn up to sample the world's best Haze's, and talk Haze we defo not going to let that go , and will be many wise cracks to come until the next year to see if you enter that year.
What about the Haze Hash from your big outdoor Haze seed repro , we want to see and smoke that to
And UB, there wasn't a reference to TH that I could find _anywhere_ in the BCGA archive, so he hasn't been developing cannabis and posting shit about it online since the 90's like we have.
2001 or something hermano. I was Wildwood, then Tug, then Tom. Before that it was some early internet chat group style thing called weedbase or something.Tom bought the Posi Hz in 1995
He joined Icmag in 2004
He was active in the old Overgrow and I got my first DC seeds in 2004...I think he was a member at least since 2002?
I've been looking into his online presence and couldn't find anything in the '90s. I seem to remember you worked for him in Spain, if my decrepit memory is correct?Tom bought the Posi Hz in 1995

Sorry if I pissed you off, just wanted an answer to a question.I have grown cannabis and bred it for my own use for 40 years. If I have remnant seed I try to make it available to folks. I have tried to use middlemen once or twice but always got fucked. I have tried to be nice and polite but whether you guys like it or not a giant percentage of you are douchebag hippie clowns. It's just not really worth it I find it much more profitable to be as repulsive as is possible. So go fuck yourselves lol.
