as a beginner, (even novices, and seasoned growers alike), you sure as hell don't want to try growing a Haze ... you couldn't have picked a longer-flowering, finickier plant, if you'd tried, can be quite difficult, even for the 'experts' ... if you do wind up buying commercial seeds, go for a Northern Lights (example), a very POTENT good-yielding, easy-grower, and finishes fairly fast ... or, any 'Mandala Seeds' strain, and read his FAQ section on his website ... some of the BEST growing advice anywhere on the Web, I recommend it to everyone ... :thumbsup:
