Hey everybody, ICMag member happyhi, who tended the Original Haze in greenhouses back in the day has recently showed up and posted the amazing "Cosmic Boogie" Original Haze poster. He has grown some nice plants recently but has not found that old Orignal Haze greatness, he is looking for it.
He is tending some "F2" seed from Sam Skunkman's Seedbay/Seedboutique freebie Original Haze x Skunk#1. I'm helping him out with image posting

They look great to me, good job so far happyhi! Those plants just look so healthy, beautiful! Not sure what to make of the phenos, that one on the right is surprisingly broad-leafed, none of the parents remotely like that-- maybe it really did get pollinated by the Mexican male that I thought was sterile (if it smells like the herb rosemary then that is probably the case).
Anyone have comments?
happyhi said:i have embarked on a serious haze breeding program. i currently am breeding
about 8 different strains. Three provided by OJD of Connoisseur Genetics, Two different strains by bumble buddy (*OHxS1 F2 from SamS/Gypsy- BB) and a number of landrace seeds from the the far east, thai, mekong delta provided by Gypsy including a few others. Will be back breeding using a couple of different landrace thais to various
hybrid species including some progeny breeding. i profess no experience other than having grown the Original Haze from 76 to 81 and want to find it again.
I will relate my limited experience with the original haze having grown and smoked what you all are pining about. It was a remarkable plant, that produced a euphoric feeling that left you often with a sore jaw from smiling. It came in colors like those represented in the poster, from deep purple to shiny silver. It tasted like nothing i have ever tasted since. The closest thing in terms of sweetness that i have tasted in todays varietals is trainwreck, but it is a poor imitation. The colors where not a function of temperature like so much of todays purple, it produced bright green leaves with the color contained exclusively on the calayxe like someone hand painted each one. The best taste came from the light silver variety, but it all tasted like different sticks of fruit with a very deep rich aftertaste. The taste was amazing but the effect was what made every piece of it
promised for long before it was ever cut. And to cut it meant an 8 month run of paranoia.
It required lots of patience and love for the herb, when everyone else was pulling around halloween you were just hunkering down for the haul to the harvest moon in december.
