Bay Haze
Also known as: Bay Area Haze
Bay Haze Strain Overview
Bay Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that originated in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. The strain was developed by local breeders seeking to create a haze variety with distinct West Coast characteristics, combining classic haze genetics with regional California strains. Its exact lineage remains somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records, but it is generally understood to be a phenotype selection from Haze genetics that was stabilized and refined in the Bay Area during the early 2000s.
The strain is characterized by its elongated, spear-shaped buds that are typically light to medium green in color with vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are often frosty with trichomes, giving them a crystalline appearance. Bay Haze plants tend to be tall and lanky with significant internodal spacing, a trait common to many haze varieties. The strain gained popularity in Northern California's medical cannabis community before spreading to other regions.
Notable features include its cerebral, uplifting effects and complex aromatic profile. Bay Haze is considered a daytime strain by many users due to its energizing properties. The strain has maintained regional popularity but has not achieved widespread commercial distribution, making it somewhat of a specialty item outside its area of origin. Its cultivation requires specific conditions to reach its full potential, particularly regarding flowering time and plant structure management.

Bay Haze Strain Growing Information
Bay Haze is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, particularly for novice growers. The plants have a long flowering time of 10-12 weeks and can reach considerable heights, often exceeding 2 meters when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires significant vertical space and careful training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity during flowering to prevent mold. Expected yields are moderate to high with proper care, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter indoors. Outdoor plants can yield 500-700 grams per plant in optimal conditions. Bay Haze responds well to organic growing methods and requires good air circulation throughout its growth cycle.
