How to grow Critical Super Silver Haze
Taste
Seb's take
Two Amsterdam classics, Critical and Super Silver Haze, brought together into a multiple cup-winning Indica-dominant hybrid with a proud, long history behind it. Wood and sweetness on the nose; the high is very potent — happy, euphoric and energetic all at once. A pairing with pedigree, and the results to prove it.
Where it comes from
Two names with genuine Amsterdam pedigree sit behind this one. Critical Mass lends the weight and the yield; Super Silver Haze lends the sativa lift and a cabinet's worth of cup wins. Delicious Seeds put them together, and the record is candid about the ambition: a cross of two strains it calls among the most famous of all time, each with a long and proud history behind it. The result leans firmly sativa, roughly 70 percent, and arrives with a competition record of its own. A pairing chosen for pedigree, and one that keeps the company it came from.
Nose & flavour
The nose leads with wood, dry and sawn and faintly resinous, softened by a sweetness underneath that keeps it from turning austere. Nothing tropical, nothing loud; more the smell of a well-kept workshop than a fruit bowl. It is a composed aroma rather than a shouting one, which suits a strain with this much Haze in its blood.
The high
Happy first, then euphoric, with an energetic thread running through the middle, the sativa side of the family doing the talking. The record describes the effect as very potent, so treat the first session as reconnaissance rather than a full deployment. Sociable, upward, and better suited to a morning with plans than an evening with none.
Growing it
Feminized, and finishing in sixty to seventy days, call it roughly sixty-five. Indoor yields sit around 500 g/m², a solid return rather than a record-breaking one. No height figure is given in the record, but a 70 percent sativa lineage tends to stretch, so give her the headroom and be ready to tie down the taller colas. THC is listed at 21 percent, strong without being alarming. A strain that rewards patience over the last fortnight and clean, unhurried work at harvest.
