Thai Haze
Thai Haze
Overview
Thai Haze is a distinguished sativa-dominant hybrid strain created by crossing a pure Thai landrace strain with the legendary Haze strain, which itself is a combination of several landrace cultivars including Colombian, Mexican, and South Indian genetics. This strain emerged from the rich lineage of Thai cannabis, a pure sativa landrace that originates from Thailand and has played a significant role in shaping modern cannabis culture since American soldiers discovered its powerful effects during the Vietnam War. Thai Haze exemplifies the best qualities of both parent strains, offering the energizing cerebral effects of Thai genetics combined with the complex terpene profile and potency of Haze. The strain is characterized by its tall growth structure typical of sativa varieties, reaching heights of up to six feet, with yellow-green flowers that are sticky to the touch and covered in translucent amber-colored trichomes. The buds are typically smaller and form tight, popcorn-like clusters with dark mossy green leaves accented by an unusually high volume of fiery orange pistils, making them difficult to break apart without a quality grinder.

Growing Information
Thai Haze requires intermediate to advanced growing experience due to its fickle nature typical of many sativa strains. The strain has a long flowering period of 9-14 weeks indoors, with some sources indicating up to 14 weeks for full crystal development. Plants grow tall (up to 6 feet) and require adequate vertical space, making them challenging for small indoor setups. Outdoor cultivation is suitable for warm, semi-humid Mediterranean-like climates, with harvest typically occurring in late October. The strain prefers 11/13 light/dark photoperiods indoors to boost flowering and prevent re-flowering. Expected yields are moderate, averaging 400-450 grams per square meter indoors and up to 450 grams per plant outdoors. Thai Haze benefits from SCROG or horizontal growing methods due to excellent lateral branch yields. The hardy landrace genetics make it resilient to pests and diseases, though the extended flowering time increases cultivation risks.
