Mazar x Great White Shark
Also known as: Mazar x GWS, Mazar Shark
Mazar x Great White Shark Strain Overview
Mazar x Great White Shark is a hybrid cannabis strain resulting from the crossbreeding of two notable parent strains: Mazar (also known as Mazar-i-Sharif) and Great White Shark. This combination brings together the robust genetics of Mazar, a pure indica landrace strain originating from the Mazar-i-Sharif region of Afghanistan, with the balanced hybrid characteristics of Great White Shark, which itself is a cross between Super Skunk and Brazilian and South Indian landrace strains. The strain was developed to create a plant that maintains the heavy resin production and relaxing effects of its indica heritage while incorporating the cerebral stimulation and vigor of its hybrid parent.
The strain typically produces medium to large plants with dense, resinous buds that exhibit a classic indica structure. The flowers are often light to medium green in color with occasional purple hues, covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils are commonly visible throughout the buds. The aroma profile combines earthy, hash-like notes from the Mazar parent with the sweet, skunky undertones inherited from Great White Shark's Super Skunk lineage.
Mazar x Great White Shark is known among cultivators for its relatively high yield potential and resin production, making it appealing for both commercial and personal cultivation. The strain's effects are typically described as balanced, offering both physical relaxation and mental stimulation. Due to its genetic background, it has gained some popularity in European markets and among growers seeking a reliable hybrid with proven genetics. However, comprehensive documentation about this specific cross remains somewhat limited compared to more widely commercialized strains.

Mazar x Great White Shark Strain Growing Information
Mazar x Great White Shark is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by late September to early October when grown outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are generally good, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be managed. Plants tend to grow to medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like topping or SCROG to maximize light penetration and yield. The strain is relatively resistant to common molds and pests, though proper airflow is essential due to the dense bud structure. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some sensitivity to overfeeding during the flowering phase.
