Mocha Haze
Also known as: Mocha Haze Hybrid
Mocha Haze Strain Overview
Mocha Haze is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from classic Haze varieties with indica-dominant strains to create a balanced psychoactive profile. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding literature, but it appears to have emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to combine the cerebral effects of Haze with more relaxing body sensations. The name 'Mocha' references both the strain's flavor profile and its rich, dark coloration in certain phenotypes.
Visually, Mocha Haze typically displays dense, conical buds with a structure that leans toward its indica heritage, though some phenotypes may show more sativa-like elongation. The flowers are often dark green with occasional purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange to rust-colored pistils provide visual contrast. The strain's aroma combines earthy, coffee-like notes with the characteristic citrus and spice undertones associated with Haze genetics.
Mocha Haze is noted for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to physical relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among users seeking a functional daytime option that provides mental clarity without excessive sedation. While not among the most widely documented strains, Mocha Haze has developed a following in certain cannabis communities for its distinctive flavor profile and versatile effects.

Mocha Haze Strain Growing Information
Mocha Haze is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing allows better control over environmental factors that influence the expression of its complex terpene profile. Plants tend to be medium in height with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training. Mocha Haze prefers stable temperatures and moderate humidity, with particular attention needed during flowering to prevent mold in dense buds. Some phenotypes may display nutrient sensitivity, requiring careful feeding schedules.
