Also known as: Commercial Haze, Commercial Sativa
What is the Commercial strain?
Commercial is a sativa cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its energetic effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Commercial is a classic sativa-dominant cannabis strain with origins tracing back to the 1970s and 1980s, when it was widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions including parts of South America, Africa, and Southeast Asia. The strain earned its name from its historical role in the commercial cannabis trade, where it was valued for its vigorous growth, high yields, and consistent effects. Unlike many modern boutique strains, Commercial was developed primarily for large-scale production rather than specific flavor profiles or potency extremes, making it a workhorse strain in traditional cultivation regions.
Visually, Commercial plants typically display classic sativa characteristics with tall, lanky structures, narrow leaves, and loose, elongated buds that are often light to medium green in color with occasional orange pistils. The buds tend to be less dense than modern hybrid varieties, reflecting its landrace heritage. The strain is known for its resilience and adaptability to various growing conditions, which contributed to its widespread distribution and commercial success during the era before specialized breeding became dominant in the cannabis industry.
While specific genetic lineage is often undocumented due to its historical development through natural selection and traditional breeding practices, Commercial is generally considered a pure or nearly pure sativa landrace or a stabilized hybrid of various tropical sativas. The strain represents an important chapter in cannabis history, showcasing the plant varieties that formed the foundation of the global cannabis trade before the rise of named cultivars and boutique breeding programs.

How do you grow Commercial?
Commercial is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, primarily due to its sativa growth patterns and longer flowering time. Plants typically flower in 10-14 weeks and can reach heights of 2-3 meters (6-10 feet) outdoors, requiring ample vertical space. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in warm, tropical or Mediterranean climates with consistent sunlight. Outdoor yields can be substantial, often producing 500-800 grams per plant, while indoor yields are more modest at 400-500 grams per square meter. Growers should be prepared for extensive vegetative growth and implement training techniques like topping or SCROG to manage height. The plants are relatively resistant to pests and mold compared to some modern hybrids, reflecting their adaptation to traditional growing conditions.
