Kaori
Also known as: Kaori Haze
Kaori Strain Overview
Kaori is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by the Spanish seed bank Kannabia. The name 'Kaori' derives from the Japanese word for fragrance, reflecting the strain's notably aromatic profile. This strain was created by crossing two classic genetics: a potent indica-dominant strain and a sativa-dominant Haze variety, resulting in a well-rounded hybrid that combines the best characteristics of both lineages. Kannabia developed Kaori to offer growers and consumers a strain with complex terpene expression and reliable effects.
Kaori plants typically display a mix of indica and sativa characteristics, with moderately dense buds that are often lime green in color and covered in a generous coating of trichomes. The buds are frequently accented with orange pistils and may exhibit subtle purple hues under certain growing conditions, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during the flowering phase. The strain is particularly noted for its complex aromatic profile that combines sweet, floral, and earthy notes with hints of citrus and spice.
While not as widely distributed as some mainstream commercial strains, Kaori has developed a following among connoisseurs who appreciate its balanced effects and complex terpene profile. The strain is considered moderately challenging to grow, requiring some experience to maximize its genetic potential, particularly in terms of terpene development. Kaori represents a deliberate breeding effort to create a hybrid that maintains equilibrium between cerebral and physical effects while offering distinctive aromatic qualities.

Kaori Strain Growing Information
Kaori is considered a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, recommended for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid to late October outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are moderate to high, approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Kaori grows well both indoors and outdoors, preferring a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to reach medium height, with indoor plants growing to 100-150 cm and outdoor plants potentially reaching 180-200 cm. Special considerations include maintaining stable environmental conditions to maximize terpene production, providing adequate support for branches during flowering due to moderate bud density, and implementing proper pest management as the strain can be somewhat susceptible to mold in humid conditions. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training can help improve yields and light penetration.
