Ghost Train Haze

The story of Ghost Train Haze

Ghost Train Haze came out of Colorado's early-2010s breeding scene courtesy of Rare Dankness, pairing their Ghost OG cut with Atomical Haze. It quickly became famous for two things: an almost unreasonable trichome coating that won it spots on High Times' strongest strains lists, and a terpinolene-driven profile that tastes like nothing else on the shelf. Among sativa heads it is a benchmark strain - the one other hazes get measured against.

Terpene breakdown

• Terpinolene: an electric, fresh spice that defines sativa character.
• Limonene: bright citrus lift on top.
• Myrcene: the relaxed, body-heavy base.

Ghost Train Haze's dominant terp is Terpinolene, and it leads the flavour on every inhale.

Growing Ghost Train Haze

A 65 to 80 day flower (roughly 9 to 11 weeks) with sugary, trichome-drenched buds and heavy yields for a sativa. It grows tall and vigorous, so topping and training help. Despite the potency it is known as an easy grow - a rarity for a haze of this calibre.

How to consume Ghost Train Haze

This is a morning-and-afternoon strain; the creative focus pairs with work, art, hikes and chores. Dose conservatively at first - its strength is real - and keep some CBD or a mellow indica nearby if you tend to get racy on strong sativas.

Ghost Train Haze vs similar strains

Compared to the original Haze, GTH is heavier-hitting and faster-finishing. Against Green Crack, it is more floral and complex with a comparable engine. For a strong sativa with a sweeter profile, Strawberry Cough fans usually cross-shop it.
