68 Santa Cruz Haze X M48 F3
Also known as: 68 Santa Cruz Haze x M48 F3
Overview
68 Santa Cruz Haze X M48 F3 is a specialized cannabis strain created by AK Bean Brains, an old-school Alaskan breeder known for preserving vintage genetics. This cross represents the third filial generation (F3) of breeding between 68 Santa Cruz Haze and M48. The maternal parent, 68 Santa Cruz Haze, is believed by some growers to be a renamed version of Oldtimer's Haze and traces its origins to the iconic Santa Cruz Haze lineage that first emerged in California during the 1960s counterculture movement. The paternal parent, M48, is an original Super Sativa Seed Club strain that appeared in their 1990-1991 catalogs as a South African x Haze cross. This combination brings together West Coast American haze genetics with vintage Dutch breeding work, creating a strain that embodies the preservation efforts of rare and historical cannabis genetics that defined the early days of cannabis breeding.

Growing Information
This is an advanced strain requiring significant patience and expertise, with a harvest window of approximately 98 days (14 weeks). As a sativa-dominant cross with haze genetics, it will likely grow tall and lanky, preferring warm temperate climates similar to Santa Cruz, California. The strain is expected to be resistant to molds and mildews but may produce moderate to above-average yields. Indoor growers should prepare for height management, while outdoor cultivation requires long growing seasons. This strain falls under the 'temperamental and difficult to cultivate' category, making it suitable primarily for experienced growers with patience for long flowering periods.
