Dear Stoner: Call them whatever you want, but I need some buzzy sativa strains to keep me going after work in the fall and winter. The darker it gets, the more racy I want the strain to be.

Dear Magnus: If cannabis commercialization hadn’t all but killed Haze strains, you’d be in good shape right now. Dispensaries are currently stuck catering to eight-week harvest schedules, hype strains and customers who obsess over THC potency, though, so racy Hazes and “sativas” as you know them are harder to find than they were seven or eight years ago.
Cherry Lime Soda by Green Dot Labs tastes like a Sonic slush.

A small handful of growers out there are still dabbling in classics like Sour Diesel (Meraki and Single Source), Golden Goat (Apothecary Farms and Natty Rems) and Super Lemon Haze (Verde Natural), but it’s probably easier to look for newer strains and flavors like Cherry Lime Soda or Red Froot from Green Dot Labs, Lemon Tart Pucker by 710 Labs or Caked Up Cherries from Locol Love. There are many more, but if you walk into a dispensary and ask for a heart-thumping strain by any of the growers I mentioned, you’ll be in good hands. And if you come across any sort of Haze, jump on it.
