Mexican Haze #3
Also known as: Mexican Haze No. 3, Mexican Haze 3
Mexican Haze #3 Strain Overview
Mexican Haze #3 is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that represents a modern refinement of classic Mexican landrace genetics. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to preserve the energetic, cerebral qualities of traditional Mexican sativas while improving consistency, yield, and cultivation characteristics. It is considered a relatively rare strain in commercial markets, primarily available through specialized seed banks and boutique growers who value heirloom genetics.
The strain typically produces tall, slender plants with elongated, spear-shaped buds that are light to medium green in color, often with orange pistils and a moderate coating of trichomes. The flowers have an airy, loose structure characteristic of many sativa varieties. Mexican Haze #3 is noted for its relatively long flowering period compared to modern hybrids, reflecting its heritage from equatorial landrace strains adapted to specific growing conditions.
Mexican Haze #3 is distinguished by its clear-headed, uplifting effects that many users describe as energizing and creative without being overwhelming. The strain maintains a reputation among connoisseurs for providing a classic sativa experience reminiscent of traditional Mexican cannabis varieties, though with more predictable growth patterns and effects than its landrace ancestors. Its rarity means that specific phenotypic expressions may vary between different breeders' versions of the strain.

Mexican Haze #3 Strain Growing Information
Mexican Haze #3 is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for experienced growers. The plants typically require 10-12 weeks of flowering time indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late October to early November in northern hemisphere climates. Plants can reach heights of 2-2.5 meters (6.5-8 feet) outdoors and 1.5-2 meters (5-6.5 feet) indoors, requiring ample vertical space. Yields are moderate, with indoor growers reporting approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. The strain prefers warm, dry climates similar to its Mexican heritage and benefits from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. Growers should monitor for mold in humid conditions due to the airy bud structure.
