Holy Grail Haze
Also known as: Holy Grail Haze #69, HGH
Holy Grail Haze Strain Overview
Holy Grail Haze is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by DNA Genetics in collaboration with Reserva Privada. The strain was created by crossing two legendary parent strains: Kosher Kush (an indica-dominant hybrid) and OG #18 (a phenotype of the famous OG Kush). This combination resulted in a strain that combines the cerebral effects of sativas with the physical relaxation of indicas, creating what breeders describe as a 'holy grail' of balanced effects.
The strain is characterized by its dense, resinous buds that display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues. The flowers are typically covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature bright orange pistils. Holy Grail Haze plants tend to grow tall with a sativa-like structure, featuring long internodes and slender leaves. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its well-rounded effects and complex flavor profile.
Holy Grail Haze is particularly noted for its high THC content, which often ranges between 18-25%, making it a potent choice for experienced users. The strain has won several awards in cannabis competitions, including first place in the Sativa category at the 2011 High Times Cannabis Cup. Its balanced genetics make it suitable for various times of day, though many users prefer it for afternoon or evening use due to its relaxing properties that can follow initial cerebral stimulation.

Holy Grail Haze Strain Growing Information
Holy Grail Haze is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically have a flowering time of 9-11 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late October to early November in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors.
Indoor growers can expect yields of approximately 14-18 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 18-22 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. The plants tend to grow tall, often reaching heights of 5-7 feet, so adequate vertical space is important. Holy Grail Haze responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to control height and increase yields.
The strain requires good air circulation to prevent mold, especially in the dense buds. Nutrient requirements are moderate, but the plants benefit from additional phosphorus during the flowering stage. Holy Grail Haze is suitable for both soil and hydroponic growing systems, though soil tends to enhance the flavor profile. Growers should monitor pH levels carefully, maintaining a range of 6.0-6.5 for soil and 5.5-6.0 for hydroponics.
