Summary:
Lineage: Haze19 X Skunk (Nirvana)
Family: Original Haze / Skunk #1
Origins: Mexico, Columbia, Thailand, India, Afghanistan
Region: America / Netherlands
Genotype: Mixed, Primarily Sativa (85-90%)
Indoor Maturation: 90 Days +/- (My plant was taken @ 95)
Sex Possibilities: Standard M/F (Non-Feminized)
Stature: Short stretch (3 - 3.5x), single pole branches, zero christmas tree bushing. Buds run solid up and down each cola, with colas getting bigger/thicker the closer you get to the crown. Strings of larger, spear-tip shaped calyxes stack up on one another.
Ratings are based on numbers [1] - [10], terrible/weak to awesome/strong.
Plant Yield: [5 - 6] - Medium to medium/large, give or take.
Plant Odor Description: Pine needles and tropical fruit, which matures into a table grape fruitiness.
Plant & Bud Odor Strength: [3] - Low, and not what most average consumers would consider "cannabis" smelling.
Bud Odor Description: A sweet pine/menthol & mint, with earthy/herbal aromas aswell. All fruit/grape aromas seem to dissapear in cure.
Edit: When grown properly and cured properly, she is pretty much all incense in the jars.
Bud Odor Appeal: [3 - 4.5] - Pleasant, subtlely sweet & refreshing... but nondescript and light odor.
Bud Visual Appeal: [4.5 - 5] - She's pretty well coated in trichomes, but she's a bit wispy and golden colored. Compared to a dence, lime green or purple frosty indica, bag appeal would be lower for the average consumer. But we know better.
Dry Hit Taste: Sweet pine & mint.
Smoke Taste: Piney solvents, flowers (lilacs, lavander, ect...), metallic, herbal, musky, woody. More minty than sweet.
Taste Level/Appeal: [6] - I enjoy it, but it's a light & complex taste which doesn't last long. Does not coat the mouth, more like a splash and fade. She burns hotter in pipes/bongs/spoons ect..., but the minty-pine is more pronounced in taste than in a joint. I prefer her rolled over packed, though.
High or Stoned: High
Strength Of High: [7 - 7.5] - Strong, but shorter in duration than I was expecting (45 minutes - 1 hour). This is not where she shines, though.
Edit: After growing her for 5-6 years now, I can CONFIDENTLY say that the original length I put down here is off, and since dialing her in and curing correctly, she is very long lasting and very euphoric.
Quality Of High: [8 - 8.5] - This is where she shines. Creeper weed, takes a few minutes to feel the rush, but she comes on like a rollercoaster. That rush is my favorite part of the high, I've found myself smoking a good amount of the Hz/Sk chasing it, at times. Tingling sensations starting on your back, at the base of your head and shoulders, climbing up your neck and wrapping around your dome and cresting in your forhead. Then the euphoria. Feels so damn good you giggle as it happens. Then the mind rush comes on, which leads to the longer duration part of the dazed and hazy high.
Effect: All in the head, body tingles, euphoric, happy weed with a pretty unique, creeper-rush onset and a decently strong, pillow-lined high, that is better with moderate usage. Over consumption turns a spacey, dazed high, into a confusing "foggy swamp" in your brain that dissapates in 45 minutes - 1 hour, whether overdone or not. Absolutley NO anxiety or paranoia at all, even when overdone. Same can be said about her racyness, or lack there of. No edge or heart speed up on this high. Great (in moderation) multitask weed, good for minor/medium physical activity, but not so much so for just sitting still or studying as she is cerebral & mentally energetic, but unfocused. Million mile-per-hour, mind racing, fuzzy thought slideshows. As far as how clear the high is, it varies considerably. With moderate usage, it's hazy & scattered, but a clearer haze, and gets foggier & muddier the more you smoke in one sitting. A couple pulls off a joint every 20 - 30 minutes is where I find an ideal balance of hazy, speedier, motivating happiness, and foggy, zoned-out, and a bit muddy happiness. And just to note, I can't remember any dank in my whole life which gives me such red-eyed symptoms. I say "symptoms", because it's like hayfever irritation on my eyes, like pollen or animal allergies, which I don't have at all. Glowing red, puffy, dry-feeling, & itchy... it's pretty crazy, actually; not too sure if that's a positive or negative attribute.
Smoke Report:
Hey, IC! Just wanted to post this smoke report on my first run of this plant. Unfortunately, my initial go at this hybrid was far from dialed, but the buds still came out pretty good. I first started this report 4 days ago, a little over 3 weeks into cure, and have been smoking the Hz/Sk for as long, so I would go back and update this report with my newest opinions on this hybrid. I figured at first that a 3 week cure was good enough to try, but after the first taste, I knew I would need to smoke more than once to fully appreciate and document this girl. I've also found myself dipping into the jars more than I would like, so I'm going to lay off her a bit now and let her cure more, and will note any further changes in the future.
Anyways, while alive, the plant has a grape and pine needle/menthol smell when matured, but, after 3 weeks in the jars, any fruity smell it once had has evaporated, but the "sweetness" is still there. Inhaling the aroma of the jars, the smell is light, almost cool on the nose, with a bit of "mintyness" mixing in, with the prominent smell being an earthy, herbal smell. Very nondescript, not unpleasant at all, just not pungent at all, either.
After taking out a few buds for the test, on visual inspection and comparing how the bud looked before cure, they have taken on a light tan/khaki/golden hue to them. The bud is a bit light and fluffy, but definately denser than a purer haze or haze hybrid. What I enjoy most visually about her is her frost coverage, and her larger, spear-tip shaped calyxes. Chopping/grinding the buds are easy, she does however gum up the works a bit, especially with scissors (what I use), due to her resin content. And that leads us back to the smell.
Breaking down the buds releases all the aromas, and basically, this bud has an all around sweet pine/mint/antiseptic smell. The earthy/herbal smell gets overpowered by the sweet pine-sol aromas, but overall, still a subtle, light scent. And again, no fruit smells. I've also noticed over time that a couple of buds have had an immature seed or two in it, hollow and grey/green. I'm chalking that up to enviromental stresses due to grower error, but even if that is genetic, still not a dealbreaker at all. She still qualifies as sensi.
Rolling this bud is a breeze, as after the first twist, she easily and instantly binds together, and holds the joint shape like memory foam. Dry hitting her results in a mouthfull of sweet, piney goodness that lasts a second or two. Very nice. You can't help but dry hit her several times before ignition. After cherry, on the first real pull of the joint, she has a piney-floral & metallic flavor, a bit like how a pine air freshener, lilacs, and tin or aluminum foil would taste. The initial taste lingers on until exhale, and fades away with the aftertaste, which is an herbal, musky, sandalwood taste. It does not really coat the mouth, more along the lines of giving your tastebuds a splash, and then fading away in 20 - 30 seconds. I can't help but use light & subtle again in descriptive terms, but she is both along with complex, and to be honest, the smell translates pretty accurately to the taste.
Now we get down to where this girl shines, and that would be the high. Not because of her strength, which is pretty strong; when the high kicks in, it's a great feeling, and can be a bit intense. Her ceiling seems pretty high, the more you smoke, the higher you get, but, it's also very easy to smoke yourself into a zoned-out, "staring contest with nothing" daze pretty easily, too. This isn't an unpleasant or anxiety ridden daze, more like the "have conversations with yourself while looking for your lost car keys for the last twenty minutes even though they've been in your right hand the whole time" kind of dazed. Foggy, muddy, and a bit confusing too, but, that's if you smoke yourself up to that. Moderately, she is scattered & hazy, but clearer and euphoric/happy. My cousin described the high as "swimming in her own brain".
Where this bud really shines though, is the quality of the high. After taking your first couple of pulls, it takes a few minutes for the high to come on, but it starts off with a rush! The best way to describe the feeling would be what it feels like right at the very tip-top of the first drop of a rollercoaster... that tingling, exciting rush! Tingling sensations in your back, shoulders, head, sometimes in your arms, like goosebump tingling. Soon after that first rush is when the euphoria kicks in. Everything is right with the world, everyone loves each other type of euphoria... you genuinly feel great, an overall sense of well-being. Giggle weed, definately. And after the initial rush and euphoric/happy feel comes on, your mind opens up to many different thoughts all at once. It's hard to focus on one particular subject, I find myself constantly wandering in my head, same with my physical self.
The comedown is smooth, and a bit short. Your not burned out, rather more just in a comfortable, pillowy state. You have cushions strapped to your head. Not tired, but relaxed (especially in your mind after that race), more so if you have been smoking less than more. The room odor after you smoke is incense, but when you leave the smokey room for a while and then return, you can really get a clear idea of the room odor, which is a very acrid, tangy, and heavy incense. There's also a little sweet earthyness to it, too. Think of what a church would smell like if they burned bitter orange peels and savory herbs (along with their other "churchy" incenses).
Overall, I would rate this particular phenotype of this particular hybrid @ [7 - 8], with [8] being generous. The high really works for me and my body chemistry, but with that said, the tingling sensations and rush were felt by multiple people, but everyone seemed to describe it differently. Some said waves, others said twitches, and one even said it felt like "being lightly tickled with a feather". Point being, it seems to effect everyone a bit differently, and growing her, she threw several curveballs. VERY nutrient sensitive, to both amount & frequency, and she has more legs on her in veg. than flower. But, for a 90 day hazey, spacey, euphoric up/cerebral high with a unique (and beautiful) onset, I'm going to hold on to her, and plan to explore her a little more with some pollen-chucks and maybe some CS.
