The most famous name in the history of the plant
Few names in growing carry as much recognition as this one. Purple Haze became famous far beyond the world of growing, to the point where people who have never set foot in a garden know the name. The video above tells the story of how that happened, what the strain actually was, and what the name means for the genetics behind it.

When the name outgrows the plant
The more famous a name becomes, the more it gets used for things that are not the original line. That is the challenge hiding inside any legendary name: the world remembers the words long after the question of the actual genetics stops being asked.
Asking that question is exactly what living preservation is for. At CloneBuzzz Genetics, verified living clones keep a strain's genuine character intact from grower to grower, so that a famous name and the real plant behind it stay connected. A name can live forever in memory; the line it belongs to lives only if it is kept alive.
