Classic Haze Genetics – An Overview
Haze genetics are among the most influential lineages in modern cannabis breeding history. They are predominantly based on sativa-dominant origins and evolved through complex crossings of landrace genetics that began to take shape from the 1960s and 1970s onward.
This article presents ten well-known Haze-based varieties and places them in context based on genetic background, growth structure, and characteristic breeding traits. The overview is purely informational and does not imply ranking, evaluation, or recommendation. ➜ All Top-10 seed lists
Arjan's Haze #3
Arjan's Haze #3 by Green House Seeds is a sativa-dominant Haze variety built on a classic lineage structure. The plant is known for its long development cycle, vigorous vertical growth, and clearly expressed Haze-type morphological traits.
NL5 Haze Mist
NL5 Haze Mist is based on a cross between Northern Lights #5 and Haze genetics. Depending on phenotype and cultivation conditions, the variety may show a slightly more compact structure compared to traditional pure Haze lines.
Neville's Haze
Neville's Haze is a historic combination of Haze, Northern Lights, and Skunk genetics and traces back to the breeding work of Neville Schoenmaker. The variety played a key role in shaping European Haze breeding during the 1980s and 1990s.
Super Silver Haze
Super Silver Haze is a multi-generation cross derived from Haze, Northern Lights, and Skunk genetics. The variety is characterized by a strong sativa influence, extended flowering periods, and pronounced vertical growth.
The Haze genetics presented here illustrate the diversity and long-term development of classic Haze lines across several decades. Despite shared genetic origins, individual varieties differ notably in plant structure, development time, and breeding focus.

The origins of Haze genetics can be traced back to sativa landraces from regions such as Colombia, Mexico, Thailand, and Jamaica. Systematic breeding and stabilization later took place primarily in Europe, with the Netherlands playing a central role.
