Northern Haze

Northern Haze is a strain that comes from Northern Lights #5 and Haze. It should not be confused with Super Northern Haze, a combination of Northern Lights and Super Silver Haze, or Northern Lights Haze. However, normal Northern Haze is sometimes listed as “Northern Haze Express” and this isn’t right either since that strain is a different phenotype (it has Lowryder genetics mixed in). Always check the listed genetics to make sure which strain you’ve got. If you’ve got normal Northern Haze, you’re in for a decent amount of THC and a calming, happiness-inducing afternoon.

The Northern Haze plant gives off a spicy, woody aroma, with hints of herbs and fresh earth. With undertones of flowers, earth, pine, spice, and lemon, you may feel like you’re taking a journey through a winding forest in your nose. The buds are bright, round, and airy (in contrast to Super Northern Haze’s, which are thick and dense). They’re neon green with thin orange hairs, barely discernible sometimes, with a coat of small white trichomes, like a light dusting of frost.

The high of the Northern Haze strain begins at a slow crawl, starting in your head and spreading out with calming energy to the rest of your body. The overwhelming sensation is one of relaxation and unfocused calm. Don’t expect to get anything done on this strain, other than kicking back, being sociable, and letting your mood wind down however it pleases. Users of this strain report feeling uplifted, happy, and looking for someone to talk to in rambling happy sentences. The strain is known for calming down stormy moods and leveling you out all around.

This is why we recommend Northern Haze for afternoons laying around, especially with friends, any time you want to feel uplifted and have your mood flattened out by sensations of happy calm. The strain’s THC ranges from 15% to 23%, so you should dose yourself according to both experience and the composition of your specific batch. It also contains 1% CBD, which helps it alleviate even more.

If you like outdoorsy, fresh earth and spicy pine palettes, Northern Haze pairs well with watching movies, hanging out with friends, laughing, doing a bunch of different creative things, and pretty much anything else that requires zero focus and 100% happiness.
