DHK Purple Haze
Also known as: DHK Purple Haze #1, DHK Purple Haze Pheno
DHK Purple Haze Strain Overview
DHK Purple Haze is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Dutch House of Kush (DHK) that pays homage to the legendary Purple Haze lineage while incorporating modern breeding techniques. This strain represents a contemporary interpretation of the classic sativa-dominant Purple Haze, which gained cultural prominence in the 1960s and 1970s through music and counterculture references. DHK's version maintains the distinctive purple coloration in the buds while potentially offering more consistent growth characteristics than some historical Purple Haze phenotypes.
The strain typically produces medium to tall plants with elongated, spear-shaped buds that develop striking purple and violet hues, especially when exposed to cooler temperatures during the flowering stage. The coloration results from anthocyanin pigments in the plant tissues, which become more pronounced under specific environmental conditions. The buds are often coated in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that contrasts with the purple coloration. The aroma profile combines sweet berry notes with earthy undertones and subtle hints of spice.
DHK Purple Haze is known for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation characteristic of its sativa heritage, followed by gradual physical relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among connoisseurs who appreciate both its aesthetic qualities and its functional effects. While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, DHK Purple Haze has developed a following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among growers and users interested in preserving and evolving classic genetic lineages with improved cultivation characteristics.

DHK Purple Haze Strain Growing Information
DHK Purple Haze is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 9-11 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest in late September to early October outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to grow tall (often reaching 150-200 cm indoors and 200-250 cm outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping or SCROG to manage height and improve light penetration. Cooler nighttime temperatures during the final 2-3 weeks of flowering enhance the purple coloration. The strain has moderate resistance to common molds and pests but requires good air circulation, particularly in humid environments.
