What is the Super Silver Haze strain?

Super Silver Haze is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its uplifted effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.

Super Silver Haze was born through the careful and strategic cross-breeding of Northern Lights, Haze, and Skunk #1, three of the highest quality strains on earth. This sativa-dominant strain was bred by Green House Seeds and won first prize at the High Times Cannabis Cup in 1997, 1998, and 1999. The strain is a sativa-dominant hybrid with an 80% sativa/20% indica ratio (some sources report 70% sativa/30% indica), making it one of the most celebrated and award-winning cannabis varieties of all time.

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. The leaves are so well covered in trichomes that trimming them is purely for commercial aesthetics, with 21% THC making it a favourite for making hash and extracts. The strain's name reflects its distinctive silver-white trichome coverage that gives the buds their characteristic shimmering appearance. Like many vintage cannabis strains, it can be considered a classic and may have transcended classic status to become legend, remaining popular and continuing to win cups or parent cup winners to this day.
