Australian Haze
Also known as: Aussie Haze
What is the Australian Haze strain?
Australian Haze is a sativa cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Australian Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that emerged from Australia's cannabis breeding scene in the early 2000s. While its exact genetic origins are not officially documented by major seed banks, it is widely believed to be a phenotype selection from the classic Haze family that was stabilized and adapted to Australian growing conditions. The strain represents Australia's contribution to the global Haze lineage, which originated in California during the 1960s and 1970s before spreading internationally.
Visually, Australian Haze typically displays elongated, spear-shaped buds with a light to medium green coloration and occasional purple hues that may appear in cooler temperatures. The flowers are often less dense than indica varieties, characteristic of sativa genetics, with prominent orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. The strain is known for its relatively long flowering period compared to modern hybrids, a trait inherited from its Haze ancestors.
Australian Haze has gained recognition among cannabis enthusiasts for its cerebral effects and distinctive terpene profile. While not as commercially widespread as some European or North American Haze varieties, it holds cultural significance in Australia's cannabis community as a locally developed expression of the classic Haze genetics. The strain's adaptation to Australian climates makes it particularly suitable for outdoor cultivation in similar Mediterranean-style environments.

How do you grow Australian Haze?
Australian Haze is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, primarily due to its longer flowering time and height management requirements. The strain typically flowers in 10-12 weeks indoors and finishes in late October to early November outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are moderate, approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant in optimal conditions.
The strain prefers a Mediterranean climate similar to its Australian origins, with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors, but outdoor cultivation in suitable climates often produces the best results. Australian Haze plants tend to stretch significantly during the flowering phase, reaching heights of 150-200 cm indoors and potentially over 300 cm outdoors. Growers should employ training techniques like topping or SCROG to manage height and improve light penetration. The strain shows good resistance to mold and pests but requires careful nutrient management, particularly during the flowering stretch.
