  Breeder's Description - 'Haze Special'
This is the kind of smoke that works great for kicking off the weekend. This sativa-indica hybrid makes everything alright, effectively softening up the smoker from the kind of psychic tension that drives us to drink like fish, cuss like sailors and seek recklessly sensual pleasures. This Neville's Haze descendent can prevent, or at least mitigate, insanity -- and with a sweet organic quality and nice yields that taste and feels much better than Prozac. A little will launch you to a high altitude, but it keeps calling you back, a sweet enticement that follows you around like a shadow. This is ...continued

Odor Level5  Odor: The odor from these plants is pretty light, it is a nice smell... Floral and fresh.
Taste Level5  Taste: I think this ties into odor, if the buds have a strong odor they may taste stronger... I find the Haze Special buds have a very pleasant light smell of fruit. It tastes more like peanut butter tho!

KC did a really good job with this plant. My ratings are very critical.

It is a Neville's Haze crossed with a KC-606. I have grown Greenhouse Neville's Haze and they were resin bombs, slim, long buds that resembled pine cones and covered in silver resin... The Neville's Haze is reputed to be one of the trippiest sativas around... KC crossed the Neville's Haze with a 606 for increased bud size, yield and shorter flowering time, they are quick to finish!

I grew Haze Special last year and had a plant that produced more resin than this one and bigger buds... I was not overly impressed with the resin production on this one. I cloned it and they seem to do better under Metal Halide than HPS, as the plants under the MH lamp have more trichomes and healthier looking foilage.

I used General Hydroponics Flora series for most of the grow... I used 1/4 strength nutes in the last 3 weeks. This made the plant take on light green buds... which I like.

I grew this plant to 5'. Tt branches like crazy but the buds were pretty small, lots of them but small "quarter sized" nuggets. I call them popcorn buds. Nevertheless, they still pack a punch.

I had no problems with smell or growing these plants. They grow very well with low nutrients. The only problem I see with the seedline is the germination rates, the seeds don't tend to germinate very fast and the germ rates were pretty low; out of 10 seeds I got 3 plants, 2 of which were male and 1 was female. I recommend you start at least 30 seeds of this strain to get some good individuals to select from.

The smoke is high class, it's very heady and thought-provoking; alert and smiley/happy. The duration of the high is very impressive.

[Update: Oct. 14th 03] Taste Of Haze Special Revealed!

I grew this stuff last year as mentioned above, I had a different pheno. I took it to some parties and people told me they thought it tasted like peanut butter... Personally I thought some of last years crop tasted like chinese chicken balls at times, but this year we smoked it again in a joint with a bunch of people and they said it smelled just like peanut butter! I was like, "hell, it kinda does" but here's the kicker... I purchased a Vapir vaporizor as a heath investment (www.air-2.com) these things are crazy... It totally eliminates all the bad smoke taste (there is no smoke!) and only vaporizes the active ingredients and plant aromas... Well low and behold! These buds taste like peanut butter! It's very apparent in the vape.

I perfer to vaporize now, I smoked a J last night and coughed up a lung, lol... You don't cough with this guys, the high is more of a creeper but it is real heady and alot clearer.

Overall Rating7  EffectSomewhat heady
Potency8  StatureSomewhat tall and lanky

Seeds were a bit of a slow starter, they all did pop, lost one between the diaper and the soil. Some of these babies started moving right along and some of them acted like ‘failure to thrive’. One was like a microscopic but perfectly formed plant. I thought I was going to have to trash it. So, minor ...continued

This was a great strain to grow. I'd ordered my seeds before seeing the reports from fellow growers here so I was a little nervous at first what with the descriptions of peanut butter taste and all, but I must have got a completely different batch of seeds.

I germinated the seeds directly in the
