What is the Black Haze strain?
Black Haze is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 22.17% THC, known for its uplifted effects and berry and cherry flavor profile.
Black Haze is a distinctive cannabis strain that exists in two primary versions from different breeders, each with unique genetic lineages. The most well-known version is a sativa-dominant hybrid (60% sativa/40% indica) created by Pioneer Nuggets, a Washington state-based breeder, through a three-way cross of Colombian Black, Colombian Gold, and Purple Haze. Pioneer Nuggets supplies dispensaries throughout the Pacific Northwest. A second version exists from Exotic Seeds in Amsterdam, which combines Sir Jack Auto and Pakistan Chitral Kush genetics. The strain is named for its striking appearance, featuring deep purple buds that appear almost black due to high concentrations of anthocyanins - pigments that create varying shades of blue and purple when stimulated by cold weather during the growing process. The already-colorful buds are accented with fiery red pistils and coated with sticky, translucent white trichomes. With THC levels typically ranging from 16-22%, Black Haze delivers potent effects while remaining approachable for cannabis newcomers. Despite its somewhat sinister name, Black Haze's fast-acting high is anything but intimidating, with users noticing an uptick in mood that can bloom into euphoria in the right setting.

How do you grow Black Haze?
Black Haze can be grown both indoors and outdoors, with outdoor plants requiring a semi-humid climate and daytime temperatures between 72-80°F. The strain has a flowering period of approximately 8-10 weeks, though some sources report 70-77 days (10-11 weeks). Plants typically reach heights of 80-100cm for autoflowering versions, while indoor plants can reach 60-80 inches and outdoor plants can exceed 90 inches in stature. Indoor yields are modest at 350-400g/m² (0.5-1 oz/ft²), while outdoor growers can expect 10-15 ounces per plant. The strain is considered not overly difficult to grow, making it appealing for beginning growers, and plants are naturally resistant to common pests and diseases. Growing difficulty is considered moderate, suitable for those with some prior experience. To enhance the characteristic purple coloration, growers can expose plants to cold temperatures late in the vegetative stage to stimulate anthocyanin production.
