Milky Haze
Also known as: Milky Way Haze
Milky Haze Strain Overview
Milky Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile. The strain's exact origins are somewhat uncertain, with different breeders claiming development, but it is generally accepted to be a cross between Super Silver Haze and an unknown indica strain, possibly Northern Lights or a similar variety. This genetic combination creates a plant that maintains the cerebral, uplifting qualities of classic hazes while incorporating some physical relaxation from its indica heritage.
The strain is characterized by medium to large-sized buds that are typically dense and resinous, with a coating of milky-white trichomes that give the strain its name. The coloration ranges from light green to deep forest green, often with orange or amber pistils weaving through the buds. Milky Haze plants tend to have a moderate stretch during flowering and produce a generous amount of resin, making them popular among extract producers.
Notable features include its relatively fast flowering time for a haze-dominant strain and its adaptability to different growing environments. While not as well-documented as some classic haze varieties, Milky Haze has developed a following among connoisseurs who appreciate its balanced effects and complex aroma profile. The strain's popularity has grown steadily since the early 2010s, particularly in European and North American markets.

Milky Haze Strain Growing Information
Milky Haze is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 9-11 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Plants can reach heights of 150-200 cm indoors and up to 250 cm outdoors if given sufficient space. Yields are generally good to excellent, with indoor growers reporting 400-550 grams per square meter and outdoor growers achieving 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in Mediterranean-like climates with plenty of sunlight. Indoor growers should provide good air circulation and monitor humidity levels to prevent mold, especially during the final weeks of flowering when buds become dense and resinous. Milky Haze responds well to most training techniques including topping, LST (low-stress training), and SCROG (screen of green). Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some sensitivity to overfeeding during the vegetative stage. The plants have good resistance to common pests and diseases but should be monitored for spider mites and powdery mildew in humid conditions.
