Mexican Haze #2
Also known as: Mexican Haze 2, Mexican Haze No. 2
Mexican Haze #2 Strain Overview
Mexican Haze #2 is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that represents a refined version of classic Mexican landrace genetics crossed with Haze varieties. The strain traces its origins to traditional Mexican sativa landraces that have been cultivated for generations in regions like Oaxaca, Guerrero, and Michoacán. These landrace genetics were carefully selected and stabilized before being crossed with Haze varieties, which themselves contain Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and South Indian genetics. The resulting hybrid combines the energetic, cerebral qualities of Mexican sativas with the complex aromatic profile and extended flowering characteristics of Haze genetics.
The strain typically produces elongated, spear-shaped buds with a loose, airy structure characteristic of sativa varieties. The flowers display various shades of green, often with orange to rust-colored pistils weaving through the calyxes. A light dusting of trichomes covers the surface, giving the buds a frosty appearance. The leaves tend to be thin and narrow, another hallmark of sativa genetics. Mexican Haze #2 plants can grow quite tall, especially when cultivated outdoors, with some specimens reaching heights of 2-3 meters under optimal conditions.
Notable features of Mexican Haze #2 include its extended flowering period, which can last 10-14 weeks, and its distinctive terpene profile that combines earthy, spicy notes with citrus undertones. The strain is prized by connoisseurs for its clear-headed, energetic effects that are less likely to cause anxiety than some other sativa-dominant varieties. While not as commercially widespread as some modern hybrids, Mexican Haze #2 maintains a dedicated following among sativa enthusiasts who appreciate its traditional genetic heritage and balanced effects.

Mexican Haze #2 Strain Growing Information
Mexican Haze #2 is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, primarily due to its extended flowering period of 10-14 weeks and its tendency to grow very tall. The strain performs well both indoors and outdoors but requires ample vertical space, especially indoors where height management techniques like topping, training, or using a SCROG (Screen of Green) method are recommended. Outdoor plants thrive in warm, Mediterranean-like climates with plenty of sunlight and can reach heights of 2-3 meters. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers typically harvesting 400-500 grams per square meter and outdoor growers achieving 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The plants prefer stable temperatures between 20-28°C (68-82°F) and moderate humidity levels, with particular attention to humidity control during the final weeks of flowering to prevent mold. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers reporting that the strain responds well to organic feeding regimens.
