Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Original Amnesia Haze crossed with Silver Buddha Haze, and a family tree that runs through Thailand, Laos, Jamaica, Afghanistan, Hawaii and Cambodia without apparent effort. Ganja, Sanskrit for a particularly potent form of cannabis, is not an idle word choice here — this ranks among Sumo's strongest. Indoors she takes her time, 11-12 weeks to flower.

Where it comes from

Original Amnesia Haze crossed with Sumo's own Silver Buddha Haze, and the record lays out a lineage that spans half the tropics: Thai, Laotian, Jamaican, Afghani, Hawaiian, even Cambodian genetics folded into the Amnesia side alone. Trace it and the picture is of a plant assembled from the world's great sativa-growing regions, with a single Afghani for ballast. Ganja, the record notes, is a Sanskrit word for a particularly potent form of cannabis, an old term chosen with intent, since Sumo rank this among the strongest they keep.

Nose & flavour

No flavour notes are recorded, and with a lineage drawn from six countries I will not presume to name which one won the nose. A haze of this breeding tends toward the sharp, incense-edged and spicy, but that is temperament read from the pedigree rather than a note lifted from the jar. Take the aroma as unlisted, and expect it to be loud whatever its particulars.

The high

The record commits to potency above all: one of the strongest in Sumo's collection, on their own reckoning, and the 80% sativa points to a long, cerebral character rather than a heavy one. No specific effects are logged, so I will not itemise them. The strength is rated high with no figure attached; meet it as a sipping strain rather than a session one, and let the first settle before you judge it.

Growing it

A patient, upright grow. Flowering runs 77 to 84 days, 11 to 12 weeks by the record's own count, so there is no hurrying a haze this dominant. She stands tall at 160 to 190cm, wanting headroom and, given the height, a little support once the colas fill. The harvest lands at 400 to 450g/m² for the wait. Offered as regular seed, so there are males in the pack and genetics worth keeping for anyone minded to breed. Time and height are her demands; potency is the return.
