Colombian Haze
Colombian Haze
Also known as: Columbian Haze
Overview
Colombian Haze is a classic sativa-dominant cannabis strain that combines the robust heritage of Colombian landrace genetics with the legendary Haze lineage. Typically expressing 85-95% sativa characteristics, this strain was developed through the fusion of Colombian Gold or Colombian Red (Punta Roja) with original Haze genetics. The strain represents a significant achievement in South American cannabis breeding, embodying the uplifting and cerebral effects that made classic Haze strains legendary while incorporating the resilience and vigor of Colombian landrace varieties. The plant exhibits typical sativa morphology with tall stature, elongated internodes, and airy cola structure. Multiple seed companies have released versions, including Brazilian Seed Company, Seedsman, Antenna Seeds, and Zenseeds, each with slight variations in phenotype expression. The strain has maintained popularity among connoisseurs despite the market's shift toward faster-flowering indica-dominant hybrids, specifically due to its clear cerebral effects and complex terpene profile.

Growing Information
Colombian Haze is a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, requiring extended flowering times of 8-14 weeks depending on the specific phenotype. The plant thrives in warm, dry climates similar to its Colombian origins and can be grown both indoors and outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires high ceilings due to significant stretch during flowering, often reaching 1.5 meters in 7.5-liter pots. Outdoor plants can exceed 6 feet in height. The strain benefits from extended vegetative periods of 4-6 weeks and responds well to training techniques like SCROG. Yields range from 300-450 grams per square meter indoors and similar amounts per plant outdoors. Harvest timing is critical - outdoor harvests typically occur in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain prefers controlled environments with careful attention to light cycles, temperature, and humidity management.
