Nevill's Haze
Also known as: Neville's Haze, Nevil's Haze
Nevill's Haze Strain Overview
Nevill's Haze is a legendary sativa-dominant cannabis strain developed by renowned breeder Neville Schoenmakers in the 1980s. The strain represents one of the most significant achievements in cannabis breeding history, created through a meticulous selection process from original Haze genetics obtained from the Haze Brothers of California. Schoenmakers, founder of The Seed Bank (which later became Sensi Seeds), spent years stabilizing and refining this strain, which became foundational to many modern cannabis varieties. The name honors both the breeder and the Haze lineage that defines its characteristics.
This strain is characterized by its exceptionally long flowering period, typically 12-16 weeks, which has made it less commercially popular but highly prized by connoisseurs. The plants grow tall with long, slender branches and narrow, light green leaves typical of sativa varieties. The buds are airy and elongated with orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. Nevill's Haze is renowned for its complex aroma profile that combines earthy, spicy, and citrus notes with a distinctive haze undertone.
Nevill's Haze has become a cornerstone in cannabis breeding programs worldwide, contributing genetics to numerous famous hybrids. Its preservation represents an important chapter in cannabis history, maintaining genetic diversity and classic sativa characteristics that might otherwise have been lost. The strain remains relatively rare in commercial markets due to its extended flowering time but continues to be cultivated by dedicated growers and breeders who value its unique properties and historical significance.

Nevill's Haze Strain Growing Information
Nevill's Haze is considered a challenging strain to cultivate, recommended for experienced growers only. The plants have an exceptionally long flowering time of 12-16 weeks (84-112 days) and can grow very tall, often reaching 2-3 meters outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires significant vertical space and careful training techniques like SCROG or topping to manage height. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate with low humidity to prevent mold. Yields are moderate but reward patient growers with high-quality flowers. Plants thrive in organic soil with good drainage and benefit from extended vegetative growth periods. Regular monitoring for nutrient deficiencies is recommended due to the extended flowering phase.
