Ever feel like a stranger in a strange land? Well, this cross of Nigerian Haze and Garlic Breath packs a powerful punch straight out of the bag, and just might take you to a new state of mind. A solid 28% THC and a steep serving of terpinolene in Strange Haze #8 give the buds a pungent pine and lemony smell. The sativa-dominant hybrid smokes incredibly smooth, with an earthy blast of pepper and lime.
Count on an uplifting high that produces creativity, not laziness, and a nice body buzz to go along with it. Srene hangs and dries its Strange Haze #8 plants for 7–10 days after harvest, then hand-trims and cures them for a minimum of 12 days. The personal touches make a huge difference in the product on shelves.
