What is the Miami Heat strain?
Miami Heat is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 30.0% THC, known for its energetic effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Miami Heat is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (70% sativa/30% indica) developed by Exotic Genetix through crossing Miami Haze with Triple OG. Named after both the Florida city's climate and the famous basketball team, this strain rose to prominence in the late 2010s as Florida's medical cannabis market expanded and craft genetics from California began circulating along the East Coast. The strain embodies the tropical intensity and high energy associated with Miami's culture, representing the broader trend of place-based cannabis branding that taps into local identity and lifestyle.
Miami Heat produces visually striking buds with small to medium-sized, spade-shaped nugs that display vibrant forest green coloration with dark purple undertones. The dense, conical flowers are heavily coated with bulbous-headed trichomes that give them a frosted, crystalline appearance under light, while bright orange to coral pistils twist and curl above the calyx surface. Some phenotypes may develop faint lavender or magenta streaks in cooler late-flower conditions, particularly in controlled indoor environments or cold-finished outdoor grows. The strain offers a complex aromatic profile dominated by sweet yet spicy lemony citrus notes with sharp mint accents, complemented by earthy herbs and spices that intensify when consumed.
