Mako Haze
Overview
Mako Haze is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (75% sativa/25% indica) created by Kiwiseeds through the crossing of Haze and Kiwi Green genetics. Named after the mako shark, which is known for speed and power, this strain delivers effects that hit quickly and powerfully. Originally bred in Amsterdam, Mako Haze quickly gained popularity for its smooth smoke and energizing properties, earning significant recognition including 1st Place in the Sativa category at the 2006 High Times Cannabis Cup in the United States and 1st Place at the IC 420 Growers Cup 2006.
The strain exhibits classic sativa growth characteristics with long elongated branches and dense flower clusters covered in sticky, crystal-like resin formations. Despite its lengthy flowering period of 10-13 weeks, Mako Haze rewards growers with high yields of potent buds. The strain is renowned among Dutch coffeeshops as a local favorite and has maintained its reputation as an award-winning cannabis variety that exemplifies quality sativa genetics with fast-acting cerebral effects.

Growing Information
Mako Haze is considered a moderate to advanced difficulty strain to cultivate. It has a flowering time of 10-13 weeks, which is typical for sativa-dominant genetics but longer than most strains. The plant exhibits classic sativa growth patterns with long, elongated branches and can be grown both indoors and outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor cultivation can produce 500-650 grams per plant. The strain requires patience due to its extended flowering period but rewards growers with high yields of resin-covered buds that appear diamond-like due to heavy trichome production. Plants thrive in temperate, cool, and hot climates and require adequate space for their stretchy sativa structure.
