Long Haze
Also known as: Long Haze Sativa, Long Haze Hybrid
Long Haze Strain Overview
Long Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain known for its cerebral effects and distinctive haze lineage. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, but it is widely believed to be a phenotype or stabilized cross of classic Haze genetics, possibly involving Original Haze or other foundational sativa varieties from the 1960s and 1970s. Breeders have worked to preserve its sativa characteristics while potentially introducing other genetics to improve growth characteristics or resin production, though specific breeding history documentation is limited compared to more modern commercial strains.
The strain is characterized by elongated, slender buds with a loose, airy structure typical of sativa varieties. The flowers are typically light to medium green with occasional orange or rust-colored pistils and a moderate coating of trichomes. Long Haze plants exhibit the classic sativa growth pattern with tall, lanky structures and narrow leaves. The strain's name reflects both its extended flowering period and the characteristic 'haze' effect profile that emphasizes mental stimulation over physical sedation.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile and extended flowering time, which can challenge growers but rewards patient cultivators with high-quality sativa effects. The strain has maintained a following among sativa enthusiasts who appreciate traditional haze characteristics, though it is less common in commercial markets than more modern hybrid varieties. Its preservation represents an ongoing effort to maintain genetic diversity within cannabis sativa lineages.

Long Haze Strain Growing Information
Long Haze is considered a challenging strain for novice growers due to its specific requirements and extended flowering period. The plants typically flower in 10-14 weeks, significantly longer than most modern hybrids. Indoor growers should expect tall plants reaching 150-200cm that require ample vertical space and training techniques like topping or SCROG to manage height. Outdoor plants can reach 250-300cm in optimal conditions and are best suited for warm, Mediterranean-like climates with long growing seasons.
Yield is moderate, with indoor growers typically harvesting 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant. The strain prefers consistent temperatures between 70-80°F (21-27°C) and moderate humidity levels, particularly during flowering to prevent mold. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with sensitivity to overfeeding. Growers should be prepared for the extended flowering time and monitor plants closely for signs of nutrient deficiencies or environmental stress.
