Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Woody spice over earth on the nose, from a haze-heavy pedigree running through Amnesia Haze, Kali Mist and G13 Haze. She wants to stretch for the light — give her the headroom, or top her if you can't — and rewards the effort with an uplifting, euphoric, energetic high and buds so resin-laden they will gum up your scissors.

Where it comes from

Dr Krippling's Buzz Light Gear, a 100 percent sativa aimed squarely at the haze crowd, with a heritage stemming from Amnesia Haze, Kali Mist and G13 Haze. The name promises to send you to infinity and rather beyond, and the pedigree does its best to oblige — three celebrated haze names stacked into a single, resin-heavy line. A pure sativa built for those who like their effect bright and their scissors sticky.

Nose & flavour

Woody spice over an earthy base, a warm and grounded profile in keeping with the haze parentage. The record dwells more on the sheer volume of resin than on the aroma, but what it gives is a spiced, woody character with the earth beneath it. Full and resinous rather than sweet — the sort of profile that deepens considerably with a patient cure.

The high

Uplifting, euphoric and energetic — a bright, haze-driven sativa effect that leads firmly with the head. The record pitches her at the haze crowd for good reason: this is active, lifting company for the daytime, the sort of high that keeps you going rather than settling you down. A durable, energetic lift, and an unmistakeably sativa one.

Growing it

One glance and you understand what an endless quantity of resin glands looks like — at nearly 800 g/m², the record's figures run 400 to 800 g/m², you will be swimming in glimmering buds that gum every blade you touch. The haze in her wants to stretch to the light, so give her ample height, or top her and run a SCROG if space is short. She favours larger containers, 15 litres and up, for her extended 70 to 84 day flower, with 20 to 23% THC. Clean your scissors as you go; she dresses heavily for the occasion.
