Arjan's Strawberry Haze strain guide
Arjans Strawberry Haze is a sativa-leaning strain from Green House Seeds in Amsterdam, often sold simply as Strawberry Haze. People know it for a sweet strawberry smell with a light tea note and an upbeat, talkative feel.
Where does Arjans Strawberry Haze come from?
It comes from Green House Seeds and carries the name of its founder, Arjan Roskam, alongside the breeder's other Arjan's Haze strains. One strain database and Green House both date its release to around 2006.
The exact cross depends on who you ask. The breeder's listing describes a sweet Swiss sativa nicknamed Strawberry, crossed with NL5 Haze Mist, a Northern Lights #5 and Haze plant. One strain database shortens this to Haze and Northern Lights #5. Both point to the same family, and the breeder's version is the more detailed one.
Green House lists it as about 60% sativa and 40% indica, so it is a sativa-leaning hybrid more than a pure sativa.
What does Arjans Strawberry Haze smell and taste like?
Ripe strawberry leads, sweet and almost candy-like, with berry notes and a soft tea or herbal side underneath. The flavour follows the smell, sweet on the inhale with a lighter, earthy finish.
One strain database lists myrcene as its main terpene, followed by ocimene and pinene. Ocimene adds a sweet, herbal brightness that fits the strawberry and tea mix.
Arjans Strawberry Haze effects: what people report
People most often describe it as energetic, talkative and uplifted, with a quick, clear-headed start and only a light body feel. Giggly and focused come up often too, which fits its Haze side.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. Dry mouth and dry eyes are the usual complaints, and some people report feeling paranoid at higher amounts.
How strong is Arjans Strawberry Haze?
It sits in the moderate to high range. One strain database lists it at up to about 20% THC, Grow Diaries averages around 22%, and a listed product came in near 20%. CBD is usually low, under about 1%.
If you're new to it, start small and give it time before having more. Read the numbers on the label for your batch, since growers can get quite different results from the same seeds.
Buying Arjans Strawberry Haze in Canada
You may see it sold as Strawberry Haze rather than under the full name. That shorter name is also used for other strawberry crosses, including autoflower versions from other seed companies, so check the producer and parents if they're listed.
Look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since the strawberry smell fades as flower ages.
Arjans Strawberry Haze vs Haze
Haze sits in Arjans Strawberry Haze's family tree through its NL5 Haze Mist parent. Classic Haze smells spicy, earthy and woody, while Arjans Strawberry Haze swaps much of that spice for sweet strawberry and adds some Northern Lights body. Both get described as energetic and talkative, though Haze is known as the more racing, head-first of the two. If you want the old-school sativa experience, try Haze. If you want something sweeter and a little gentler, start with Arjans Strawberry Haze.
