Haze Special is a modern, hybrid-sativa variety derived from the KC 606 genetics. Developed to balance specific traits inherited from its parent, this strain is suitable for cultivation in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a moderate level of difficulty throughout the cultivation cycle, which concludes with a relatively short flowering period of 53 days and a characteristically high yield.
The chemical profile of Haze Special is defined by a dominant presence of terpinolene, which is supported by secondary notes of myrcene and a tertiary influence of caryophyllene. This specific terpene composition shapes the sensory profile of the cultivar, resulting in a distinct botanical bouquet. The interaction between these chemical compounds provides the foundation for the strain's overall aromatic and flavor characteristics.
In terms of physiological and cognitive impact, Haze Special is THC-dominant and is associated with effects that are creative, uplifted, and euphoric. These outcomes make the strain particularly well-suited for social interactions, focus-heavy tasks, and the facilitation of creative projects. The genetic influence of Haze Special is well-documented in its diverse list of notable offspring, which includes Bushmans x Jaggen x Haze Special, Original Lazerlite, Super Cali Haze, Super Kimo, and Tropical Treat Special.

Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
euphoric
afternoonCB1 full agonism by THC is primary driver; limonene-mediated dopamine release in hippocampus contributes to mood elevation.
Genetic Profile
Sativa-dominant
Primarily sativa with indica grounding. Uplifting with body relaxation.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
