super silver haze strain

Super Silver Haze is a Sativa-dominant hybrid from Amsterdam’s Green House Seed Company.

Its name once belonged to a plant from breeders Scott Blakey, aka Shantibaba; Howard Marks, aka Mr. Nice; and Neville Schoenmaker, who retooled the strain and called it Silver Haze after leaving the seed company.

Green House reports the current version of the strain is the result of crossing Shiva with Northern Lights #5, donated by breeder Sam the Skunkman. The strain earned three successive 1st Place Awards at High Times’ Cannabis Cup — 1st Hydro in 1998, and 1st Place overall in 1998 and 1999.

The seed company reports the strain has an instantly recognizable, spicy-peppery terpene profile and a strong, fast-acting Sativa-like effect. It tested at 19.11% THC, 0.17% CBD and 0.74% CBN. It’s recommended for treating pain and stimulating appetite.

Super Silver Haze, also known as “SSH” or “SS Haze,” is a sativa dominant hybrid strain (80% sativa/20% indica) created through crossing the infamous Skunk X Northern Lights X Haze strains. Known for its super heady high and long-lasting effects, Super Silver Haze is the perfect bud for any sativa lover who really wants to kick back. The high starts fast and hard, slamming into your mind almost as soon as you exhale with a stoney and lifted effect. You’ll feel a sense of energy wash over you that’s filled with creative motivation and happiness, lending itself well to any artistic task that you have at hand. However, your head will be pretty hazy, so don’t plan on focusing on much of anything for too long. This energy soon seeps into your body, getting you up and moving without affecting any physical aches or pains. With these heady effects and its high 18-23% average THC level, Super Silver Haze is often chosen to treat conditions such as chronic fatigue, depression, chronic stress, migraines or headaches and nausea or appetite loss. This bud has a classic spicy herbal flavor with a sharp sour citrus exhale. The aroma takes as skunky turn, with spicy herbs and sour citrus throughout. Super Silver Haze buds have fluffy and airy popcorn-shaped bright green nugs with orange hairs and a frosty thick coating of tiny silvery white crystal trichomes.

Super Silver Haze is one of Amsterdam’s best-kept secrets – but we’re sharing it with you. This sativa-dominant powerhouse has been in high demand for decades now, and for good reason. As a multiple High Time Cannabis Cup winner, Super Silver Haze Feminized seeds bring an exceptionally energetic brainy high with a quick onset and a long-lasting after-effect.

Its mythical parentage assures powerful sativa genes and a terpene profile to dream of. This strain’s genetics are like a cannabis Hall of Fame, featuring Northern Lights (Afghani x Thai), Haze, and Skunk #1 (Acapulco Gold x Colombian Gold). With so much history embodied in one plant, we wouldn’t be surprised if Super Silver Haze was nominated for World Heritage status soon…
