Power Haze
Also known as: Power Haze #1, Power Haze Strain
Power Haze Strain Overview
Power Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2000s from Dutch breeding programs. The strain was developed by crossing classic Haze genetics with potent indica varieties, creating a balanced hybrid that maintains the cerebral effects of traditional sativas while incorporating more physical relaxation. Its exact lineage remains somewhat obscure in cannabis literature, with different breeders claiming various parentage combinations, though most agree it incorporates Haze genetics with Northern Lights or Skunk varieties.
The strain produces medium to large-sized plants with elongated, spear-shaped buds that are typically light to medium green in color with occasional orange pistils. The buds are often covered in a generous coating of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Power Haze is known for its relatively fast flowering time compared to pure Haze varieties, making it more accessible to growers while maintaining the characteristic Haze effects.
Power Haze has gained popularity among both recreational and medical users for its balanced effects and manageable cultivation characteristics. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, it has maintained a consistent presence in certain cannabis markets, particularly in Europe and North America. The strain represents a bridge between traditional landrace sativas and modern hybrid breeding techniques.

Power Haze Strain Growing Information
Power Haze is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate. It has a flowering time of 9-11 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late October in northern hemisphere climates. The plants can reach heights of 150-200 cm indoors and up to 250 cm outdoors if given sufficient space. Yields are generally moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions.
The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight when grown outdoors. Indoor growers should provide adequate vertical space and consider training techniques like topping or SCROG to manage height. Power Haze responds well to most growing mediums including soil, coco coir, and hydroponic systems. The plants have moderate resistance to common molds and pests but require good air circulation, particularly during the flowering phase.
