How to read these relationships

Parent links describe a reported cross. Ancestry components may be several generations back. A phenotype selection comes from a named line rather than a new two-parent cross. Disputed links retain the uncertainty of their source.

Names in this catalog open a strain profile. Other names open the reference describing the relationship. The family view shows the links currently documented here, not every known descendant.

CATALOG REFERENCE

Leafly catalog summary values, not laboratory results for a specific sample. A displayed 0% is a rounded source value, not proof of absence. Unlisted cannabinoids remain unknown.

Concentrations vary by sample. A cultivar name alone does not establish potency.

Terpenes & aroma

Catalog-listed terpenes. Dominance is shown only where the source states it; percentages are unavailable unless separately recorded.

Similar strains

Similarity uses catalog reference chemistry, reported attributes and lineage. Missing data is excluded; this is not an effects prediction.

Haze

Haze is a broad sativa-associated family that Leafly places in Santa Cruz in the 1960s. Its account names Colombian, Mexican, Thai and South Indian ancestry without defining a complete sequence of crosses. The profile's spicy or herbal, tobacco and earthy tags describe reader impressions. This family-level history is useful when exploring descendants, but the word Haze in another strain's name is not enough to prove a direct parent relationship or identical chemistry.

White Widow

White Widow is associated in Leafly's account with Dutch breeding in the 1990s and ancestry from Brazil and southern India. These regional descriptions are broader than named, authenticated parent plants. The profile's woody, earthy and floral reader tags sit alongside a myrcene-led catalog terpene listing. They describe the source's record rather than establish a universal sample profile. Historical breeder attribution and the exact ancestral material still need primary documentation.

    Leafly catalog summary values, not laboratory results for a specific sample. A displayed 0% is a rounded source value, not proof of absence. Unlisted cannabinoids remain unknown. Terpene names and documented order come from the catalog; concentrations are not supplied. Effects, flavors and negative effects are reader-reported tags. The report count covers the profile as a whole, not individual tags.
