Shining Silver Haze from Royal Queen Seeds is a sativa‑dominant Feminised photoperiod bred from Haze crossed with a Skunk × Northern Light lineage, selected to shorten flowering while preserving Haze character. The breeder describes a heady, uplifting and energising euphoria paired with a sweet, citrusy and earthy flavour profile with pine overtones.
Genetics & classification: Royal Queen Seeds documents the lineage as Haze × (Skunk × Northern Light) and lists the variety as a photoperiod sativa‑dominant hybrid (about 75% sativa / 25% indica). This entry is Royal Queen Seeds’ stabilized selection intended for consistent feminised phenotypes.
Cannabinoids & flowering: Royal Queen Seeds reports THC up to 21%. CBD is described qualitatively as “medium” on the product sheet; numeric CBD, CBG, CBN, CBC, CBDV and THCV values are not provided by the breeder. Flowering is given as 60–70 days, with the maximum documented flowering time of 70 days.
Terpenes and flavour: The breeder’s product copy describes flavours as citrus, earthy, fruity and pine. The official page does not list individual terpene compounds by name, so no chemical terpene identifiers are documented here.
Commonly reported effects: The breeder describes an uplifting, energising euphoria; the product sheet highlights a strong Haze‑type cerebral head high and lists the effect as “heavy.”
Cultivation & harvest: Royal Queen Seeds gives indoor height ~3–4 ft (approx. 90–120 cm) and outdoor height up to about 6–7 ft (approx. 180–220 cm). Reported yields are up to ~650 g/m² indoors and 600–650 g/plant outdoors; the breeder lists a late‑October harvest in northern/long‑summer climates. The breeder recommends strong light and notes the cultivar performs well in long summer seasons.
