Where's purple haze or any legit sativas?

[bigherb]

What on earth is a "Purple Haze" supposed to be other than perhaps some second rate hybridised haze sold to completely ignorant people on the back of a Jimi Hendrix song that wasn't even about marijuana in the first place?

And for those who mentioned ACE's OT Haze: Overlooking for the time being the highly improbable scenario that OT Haze was selling in New York 7 years ago (mainly since I don't think it was even on the market then!), the "purple" pheno of that haze was one selected by Dubi of ACE seeds in Spain (ca, 2005 or so) Anyway, as it turned out, iirc, all the purple phenotypes turned out to be much weaker, and ACE were recommending the green pheno at the time.

Given that there was no mention ever of a "purple" Haze in the Early days of Haze (perhaps "purple" wasn't quite so fashionable then), I would conclude that anything trying to pass itself off as Purple Haze is pure and total marketing bullshit, aimed at people without much knowledge. Full stop.

If someone had really successfully hybridised a Haze with something purple, and had a result that was consistent and reliable, it would have been FAR more helpful to say what it was, e.g. Original Haze x Blueberry x Viet or whatever, instead of making up silly names.
At best I imagine any "purple haze" doing the rounds is simply some bluer pheno of something (which maybe even has some Haze in it), and it is highly unlikely that it would be reproducible or spread much.

To the OP: Sorry if this view disappoints you, but I think you'd be better off looking for good Hazes and Haze hybrids without fussing too much about colours, which mean little.

Im not sure where you get any of your info/idea of Purple haze especially considering i know your far from Cali . But below is a few Quotes from folk who were in Santa Cruz / Cali at the time

Yes Purple Original haze was absolutely a reality. It was around for more then a decade in the late 60's , 70's, and from then on in the form of hybrids. It came in silver, blue, reddish, as well as purple, and almost black. I grew, smoked, saw them all. They were real.

As for the purple hazes of today being weaker This has been reported on both OT an THH line but the Original Haze from SC not soo

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.

-SamS

I can't share as much as the original crew as I just turned 50.......but can say for sure Haze wasn't ready till December in Boulder Creek or Corralitos area (two spots we tended in) and as stated some phenos never really wanted to finish...would run on (flowers) till spring and re-grow....are fav was the purp phenos and had varying degrees of coloring...some calayxes were violet to almost black purp with green foilage...others all purple from the start.....kinda' grape licorice anise flavoring with a dash of spicy pepper..

rootbeer pheno..?.. not so sure on that one....but many phenos to select from....

another staple in the gardens at this time was the sativa based roadkill skunk ......between these two varieties we had all we needed.......

life was simple and stony.......


ganj on......


I first was introduced to Haze in '74 and by '76 was tending my first crop of it along with the roadkill skunk sativa from same individual.....he specifically worked on selection of the purple variant within the line ....so the seed line was already being worked towards a true breeding purple while hopefully retaining the high/taste it was so prized for......



Mtn. Nectar

That was a few


I think the majority myself included wasn't sayin that OT haze was wat she/OP was smokin in NYC but that OT purple haze line is one which should be considered and is of the closest available today to the Original Purple haze from SC .

=bigherb;5712103]Nice pic but it Looks similar to what they sell in Adam

CS as purple haze

From the pic i doubt it Santa Cruz purple haze ,I think more of a Posi Purple haze which i believe was haze X purple skunk

From what i know no clones were saved from the 70's ,an that's from the creator

Below is a quote from Sams about 5 years ago





Im curious to hear any more info you can share on this strain i Imagine you Have atleast smoked it

I dont think that it is from adam or posi.The Guy that I got this from says it has been in his family for close to 35 years, they were growing it in the Appalachians for a long while, I don't believe that it is a pure haze because it finishes to fast, I am going to talk to him tommorow and get the details. It has a nice uplifting cerebral high, with a floral drier sheet type of scent.

Thanks for the pics she looks great ,The pics are very similar to purple haez from OJD now connesuier gentics it was a cross of Purple bastard X G13Haze link below

https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=145920


Thats was my feeling it seems we agree she is not the Ohaze/Purple haze from the 70's . From the pics IMO/E she is definetly a hybrid ive grown Skunk haze which is 50% haze an it was much more haze leaning aswell an Nevilles haze but that would be exspected .


The effects an aromas seem hazy Im curious to hear any other info you may come across .Im curious just how fast does she finish ?

Much Respect

Any of the Sam the Skunkman mixed haze freebies are well worth your time and consideration.

Sorry pal,

My "expertise" doesn't extend to rating Hazes by colours. I am sure that others, like yourself perhaps, will step in to fill this glaring gap.

On the other hand, as I said, if the OP gives us some details of their setup, taste-in-high preferences, time constraints, etc. some constructive info may be more forthcoming.

TomHill´s Haze

...in my garden.

 

[canned abyss1]

Update: the guy that I got it from, says he got it back in 85, he got it from a friend that had been running it for several years prior to that, and they acquired it somewhere west of the Rockies, so it is definitely pretty old. The oldest confirmable age is 28 years, but it sounds like it has been around for quite a while longer.

Hi guys, sorry for my breaking through the 3d .. I am an italian sativas / haze lover and I found this 3d interesting..

But... in the end.. (exept the sam the skunkman)... for U.. which is a purple haze that still worth to be in your garden ?.. and I do refear to seeds that is possible to find in the market.. not to that ones that you can have only if you are a friend of a friend...

regards

ACE PurpleHaze + PH x Thai and PH x Malawi
Positronics PurpleHaze #1
Tom Hill Haze

Never grew any of those, but if someday, I would buy the strain from this companies/breeders.
You're almost late for this year outdoors, a greenhouse would definitely help them finish in Italy.

 

[MAHA KALA]

there are many phenos in original haze, purple, blue, green,red pinky and various in beetween

only potent purple haze i smoke was sams thaihazeskunk, tom hills purple haze was not potent, i mean that blakc purple pheno, it tasted like spicy carrots..

i like green hazes more

tom hills dchaze can offer some potent "afghan purple" mixed with potent "hazegreen phenos"

 

[sativoautoctono]

yo si creo en la purple haze,y estoy de acuerdo con que hay mucho de leyenda urbana pero existe y lo mejor es que esta en buenas manos
