Tangerine Haze by Clone Only Strains
Tangerine Haze is one of those legendary, unicorn cuts that takes older growers straight back to the early 2000s forum days. Originating out of Amsterdam as a cross between G13 Haze and NYC Diesel, this cut was famously hoarded and circulated by the Devil's Harvest Krew (DHK)—specifically a guy known as 'Erawk'. Because it was strictly a clone-only variety, getting your hands on it meant you actually had to know somebody in the scene. To this day, finding the real-deal DHK cut is like finding a needle in a haystack, and most of the 'Tangerine Haze' seeds floating around today are just knock-offs or recreations.
When grown out, the original Tangerine Haze is a finicky, stretchy sativa that absolutely demands early training and topping, otherwise she’ll quickly outgrow your tent. She usually needs about 9 to 10 weeks to finish, but the reward is something truly special. The aroma is violently loud—a sharp, piercing tangerine citrus that cuts right through the room, backed up by this funky, spicy diesel undertone. I’ve even seen old ICMag logs where guys swore they found a 'coconut tanning oil' note in the late weeks of flower.
The smoke itself is pure electricity. It’s a soaring, clear-headed sativa high that gets you moving, making it the perfect daytime stash. Breeders have tried to capture that magic for years, crossing the clone with stuff like Rare Dankness, but nothing ever quite matches the raw vigor and terp profile of the original DHK mother. If someone passes you a cut claiming it's the real Tangerine Haze, you’d better verify the source—and if it's legit, never let it go.

Growing Tangerine Haze: what to expect
As an indica-leaning plant, expect a modest stretch after the flip (roughly 50–100%) and dense bud structure — which makes late-flower humidity discipline the main risk: keep RH in the 40s once buds fatten to stay ahead of mold. Growers familiar with G13 Haze NYC Diesel will recognize much of its behavior. Whatever the listing says, the cut in YOUR tent is the ground truth: log feedings, readings, and photos, and let the trends — not the label — drive decisions.
