Cannabis seeds
by Super Strains
Next of Kin is a sativa-dominant feminised cannabis seed from Super Strains — the breeders behind Amnesia — that rewards patient growers with genuinely staggering yields. A daughter of world-famous sativa genetics, she carries that classic hazy aroma and delivers a clear, cerebral effect that seasoned smokers and newcomers alike can appreciate. If you've grown quick-finishing indicas and fancy something with more character, this is the one to step up to.
Super Strains built their reputation on Amnesia, and Next of Kin carries that same world-class sativa lineage forward. You're getting feminised seeds — every seed produces a flowering female, no time wasted identifying and culling males. The genetics lean heavily sativa, which means taller plants, longer internodes, and the kind of resinous, aromatic flowers that fill a room with fresh, hazy scent the moment you crack a jar open.
We've sold a lot of sativa-dominant seeds over the years, and the most common complaint is always the same: "It took forever." Next of Kin does ask for patience — roughly 11 weeks of flowering — but for a haze-lineage plant, that's actually quite reasonable. Pure sativa hazes can push 14-16 weeks easily, so 11 weeks is a genuine compromise between sativa quality and realistic grow timelines. The payoff is yields in the 500-600g/m2 range indoors, which is frankly enormous for a sativa-leaning strain.
The flavour profile sits in that classic fresh-haze territory — think green, slightly spicy, with enough complexity to keep you interested. It's not a one-note fruity strain; it's the kind of smoke that reminds you why sativas have such a devoted following.

Next of Kin feminised seeds are better suited to growers who've already got a harvest or two under their belt. She's not difficult in the sense that she's fragile — she's difficult in the sense that she demands attention to training, feeding, and timing. Sativa-dominant plants stretch significantly during the first weeks of flower, and Next of Kin is no exception. If you're growing in a tent, plan your flip early and use LST or a SCROG net to manage the canopy height.
Indoor growers should expect flowering times of around 11 weeks for optimal resin production and density. You can chop a week early if you prefer a more energetic effect, but the last 7-10 days is where the bulk of trichome maturation happens — and with a strain that yields 500-600g/m2, you want every gram at its best. Feed generously during mid-flower but ease off in the final two weeks for a cleaner taste.
Outdoors, Next of Kin needs a warm, Mediterranean-type climate to really shine. Northern European growers can manage it in a greenhouse, but an open-air grow in the UK or Netherlands is a gamble with an 11-week flower period pushing harvest into late October or November. If you've got the climate for it, expect tall plants with heavy lateral branching that benefit from support stakes in the final weeks.
If this is your first grow, start with something more forgiving — a Northern Lights or a White Widow feminised will teach you the basics without punishing mistakes. Next of Kin stretches hard, needs careful nutrient management, and the 11-week flowering time means any problems in week 3 or 4 have a long time to compound before harvest.
The THC range of 15-20% also means results vary with your skill. A well-dialled grow room with proper lighting and climate control will push towards that 20% ceiling. A less optimised setup will still produce good flower, but you'll land closer to 15%. That's not a criticism of the genetics — it's just the nature of sativa-dominant strains. They reward precision.
One more thing: the 3-seed pack means you don't have much room for error during germination. Use the paper towel method, keep temperatures at 22-25°C, and be gentle with the taproot. We'd germinate all three and select the strongest phenotype if you've got the space.
| Strain | Genetics | Flowering Time | Indoor Yield | THC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Next of Kin (Super Strains) | Sativa Dominant | 10-12 weeks | 500-600g/m2 | 15-20% |
| Amnesia Haze (typical) | Sativa Dominant | 12-14 weeks | 450-550g/m2 | 17-22% |
| Super Silver Haze (typical) | Sativa Dominant | 10-11 weeks | 400-500g/m2 | 18-23% |
Next of Kin sits in a sweet spot: faster than a full Amnesia Haze but with comparable or higher yields. If you've grown Amnesia before and wished it finished sooner without sacrificing weight, Next of Kin is the logical next step. Super Silver Haze finishes slightly faster but typically produces less per square metre. For pure yield-per-day-of-flower, Next of Kin is hard to beat in the sativa category.
Complete your setup with a proper grow tent and carbon filter — sativa-dominant strains like Next of Kin produce strong aromas during weeks 6-11 of flower, and a quality extraction system keeps things discreet. If you're running a SCROG, grab a trellis net to support those heavy colas.
Next of Kin delivers a clear, focusing cerebral effect that sits firmly in the sativa camp. It's the kind of smoke where you finish a joint and suddenly want to reorganise your record collection or finally finish that painting. Traditionally associated with creative focus and mental clarity, the effect lasts well — this isn't a 30-minute flash that fades into couch-lock.
The flavour is fresh and hazy with a slightly spicy undertone. If you've smoked classic Amsterdam coffeeshop haze, you'll recognise the profile immediately — green, herbal, with a sharpness on the exhale that lingers. It's a refined smoke, not overpowering, and the 15-20% THC range means it's accessible to most adult smokers while still packing enough weight to satisfy experienced users. Just be mindful of the upper end of that THC range — at 20%, it can catch you off guard if you're not expecting it.
Roughly 11 weeks for optimal yields and resin production. You can harvest a week early for a more energetic effect, but the final stretch is where trichome development peaks. For a sativa-dominant haze lineage, 11 weeks is actually quite reasonable.
Not really. She demands attention to training and feeding, and the long flowering period means problems compound over time. If you're on your first or second grow, start with something more forgiving like Northern Lights or White Widow and come back to Next of Kin once you've got your environment dialled in.
In an optimised indoor setup with proper lighting and climate control, expect 500-600g/m2. That's exceptional for a sativa-dominant strain. Using a SCROG net and extending veg slightly will help you hit the upper end of that range.
It's a gamble without a greenhouse. The 11-week flowering period pushes harvest into late October or November, and wet autumn weather increases the risk of bud rot on those dense colas. A greenhouse or polytunnel in the UK or Netherlands gives you a much better chance.
Next of Kin shares Amnesia's world-famous sativa lineage but finishes 1-3 weeks faster. Yields are comparable or slightly higher at 500-600g/m2. If you love Amnesia's hazy character but want a shorter wait, Next of Kin is the better pick.
Classic fresh haze — green, herbal, slightly spicy. It's unmistakably in the Amnesia family. The aroma is strong during late flower, so a carbon filter is a must if discretion matters.
The pack contains 3 feminised seeds. Since there's no room for germination failures, use the paper towel method at 22-25°C and handle the taproots gently when transplanting.
