Nepal Haze
Also known as: Nepalese Haze
Nepal Haze Strain Overview
Nepal Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that traces its origins to the Himalayan region of Nepal. This landrace strain has been cultivated for centuries in its native environment, where it adapted to the high-altitude conditions and developed unique characteristics. The strain gained international recognition through cannabis enthusiasts and breeders who collected seeds from the region and began preserving its genetics. Nepal Haze represents a relatively pure example of a traditional Nepalese sativa, though some modern versions may incorporate other genetics for stabilization in non-native growing environments.
The plant typically displays classic sativa characteristics with tall, slender structure and elongated, airy buds. The flowers are often light green with orange pistils and a moderate coating of trichomes. The leaves are narrow and finger-like, characteristic of pure sativa varieties. Nepal Haze is known for its resilience and adaptability, having evolved in the challenging conditions of the Himalayan foothills where it developed resistance to various environmental stressors.
Notable features of Nepal Haze include its distinctive terpene profile that reflects its mountainous origins and its clear-headed, energetic effects that many users describe as uplifting and cerebral. The strain maintains a reputation among connoisseurs as a relatively pure representation of traditional Nepalese cannabis genetics, though availability can be limited compared to more commercially developed strains.

Nepal Haze Strain Growing Information
Nepal Haze is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, particularly for indoor growers due to its sativa growth patterns. The flowering time is typically 10-12 weeks, which is longer than many modern hybrids. Outdoor plants can reach heights of 2-3 meters (6-10 feet) when grown in optimal conditions, while indoor plants may require training techniques to manage height. The strain prefers a warm, dry climate similar to its native Himalayan environment and does well in both indoor and outdoor settings, though outdoor cultivation in temperate climates may be challenging. Expected yields are moderate to high for outdoor grows, but indoor yields may be lower unless given ample vertical space. The plant benefits from good air circulation and is relatively resistant to mold and pests compared to some other strains. Growers should be prepared for a longer flowering period and substantial vertical growth.
