DelaHaze
Also known as: Luminarium
Overview
DelaHaze is a distinguished sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Paradise Seeds in Amsterdam, representing a refined evolution of classic Haze genetics. Originally created through meticulous breeding combining Mango Haze and California Lemon Skunk genetics (with some sources indicating White Widow x Super Silver Haze lineage), this 70% sativa strain emerged in the mid-to-late 2000s and quickly gained recognition in the European cannabis scene. The strain has earned numerous accolades including 2nd prize at the 2008 High Times Cannabis Cup Amsterdam (Sativa category), 2nd prize at Spain's 2009 Cannabis Champions Cup, and 1st prize at the 2011 Treating Yourself Medical Marihuana expo in Canada. DelaHaze represents Paradise Seeds' successful attempt to capture the electric clarity and uplifting effects of classic Haze varieties while significantly reducing flowering time and improving reliability. The buds exhibit the characteristic elongated, spear-like shape of sativa strains, displaying bright minty green coloration with dense trichome coverage and amber pistils that spiral upward at the stem tops. This strain has become particularly popular among commercial growers due to its exceptional yield potential combined with manageable flowering times, offering the energetic Haze effect profile alongside practical cultivation characteristics.

Growing Information
DelaHaze is considered a moderately challenging strain suitable for experienced growers, with a flowering time of 9-10 weeks indoors (63-70 days) and harvest in early November outdoors. The strain produces exceptional yields of 500+ grams per square meter indoors and up to 1000+ grams per plant outdoors. Despite its sativa dominance, Paradise Seeds has successfully controlled the notorious Haze stretching, making it manageable for indoor cultivation when switched to flowering early. The plant grows to moderate heights of 1-1.5 meters indoors and 1.7-2 meters outdoors. DelaHaze is naturally robust and mold-resistant, thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments across North America and Europe. It performs well in warm and temperate climates with good resistance to diseases, wind, and temperature fluctuations. The strain features pronounced apical dominance with strong lateral branches and maintains an excellent calyx-to-leaf ratio. Recommended techniques include LST, HST, topping, and defoliation. For optimal terpene development, many growers recommend extending flowering by one additional week to unlock the full citrus/Haze bouquet potential.
