The Beginning

Before the hype.

Before the branding.

Before dispensaries...

There was just passion, trial and error, and the love of the plant.

REF #001 · TAPED TO THE WALL OF THE FIRST GROW · SIGNED “THE BEGINNING” · PHOTOGRAPHER: SCOTT POPE

Back In The Daze was born from the era when cannabis culture was built in basements, garages, and spare rooms — when growers learned by doing, strains earned their names, and the high actually meant something. No shortcuts. No trends. Just real genetics, real patience, and real results.

Those early days shaped everything.

The glow of warm lights.
The hum of fans.

The excitement of watching something legendary take root.

That's where the classics were forged — Sour Diesel, Golden Goat, Super Lemon Haze, OGs that defined generations.

The Back in the Daze mark painted large on a red brick wall, Retro Strain Revival beneath it.

Today, we're bringing that energy back.

Back In The Daze is a tribute to the strains that built the culture and the growers who kept it alive. We honor the originals and never forget where it all started.
