After centering our attention on heavy hitting Indicas for the past few seasons we decided it was time to focus on producing a potent haze to add to our library. Golden Haze is a cross of Super Silver Haze with the Amnesia Haze by the legendary Soma. Both had characteristics we liked and after a lot of initial groundwork, we came across this unique phenotype which literally shone brighter than her sisters in the grow. Straight away we knew what we had created – this stunning Golden Haze.
As early as 2011, we entered this strain into the 24th anuual High Times Cannabis Cup. At the time, High Times LOVED this strain – we were featured in their 2012 guide to the ‘Earth’s Strongest Strains’.
Here’s what High Times had to say about our Golden Haze back then:
“The Golden Haze (20.51% THC tested): ..a nine-week pheno of the legendary Amnesia Haze, shows the (Devil’s Harvest) crew’s prowess as big-time indoor cultivators, as they got the old-school strain into the upper stratosphere of potency, rocking it at more than 20% THC – something definitely not easy to do with her.”
After spending some time stabilising the cross, we kept her in the library and persevered with other projects. Other strains have been created in our labs and gone on to great things, but we never forgot about our Golden dream.
Several months ago, we decided to revive the project. We stabilized and tweaked the strain– it is now a slightly longer flowerer than before. The extra week or 2 at the end has increased her potency even further without impacting on the taste and form which were so popular.
The taste is classic Haze. If you’ve smoked Haze then you know – the good stuff has this unique, wispy quality to the smoke. The taste harps back to the original ‘Amni’. Growers will see all the classic characteristics of the old-school Haze. Be warned, she really does stretch in the last 2-3 weeks so leave lots of room. Outdoors, Golden Haze can grow into a monster at well over 2 metres tall. This is partly due to how hardy and durable it is, giving the ability to flower well into mid-October and beyond.
We are very proud of our Golden Haze. As you can see from the photos – she really does glisten under the light. Here at The Devil’s Harvest Seeds, we are very happy with what we’ve created. We are delighted to offer feminized Golden Haze at a very competitive price (we think so anyway). Enjoy!

Strain FAQ
Who created the first Haze Strain?
The "Haze Brothers" in California created the first Haze strain in the swinging '60s and '70s. They expertly crossed landrace strains from India, Mexico, Colombia, and Thailand to create the Haze. Their unique breeding gave Haze its complex aroma and intense effects, a cannabis cultivation milestone!
Are indoor conditions best for finicky strains?
Absolutely. Indoor cultivation is said to be the best for rare, finicky strains that don't thrive outside. By tailoring their habitat, these rare plants are said to be able to thrive and preserve unique cannabis genetics.
How does sun sensitivity affect late October finishing strains?
These photoperiodic strains are said to need precise light conditions to flower. At summer's conclusion, they naturally blossom when daylight decreases.
What makes South East Asian cannabis strains' THCV unique?
Some South East Asian strains have significant levels of Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), a cannabinoid that can reportedly decrease hunger and give a clear-headed, energetic high. These strains' greater THCV concentration makes them special in the cannabis world.
