Purple Thai Haze
Also known as: Purple Thai Haze Sativa, Purple Haze Thai
Purple Thai Haze Strain Overview
Purple Thai Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that represents a modern interpretation of classic landrace genetics. The strain combines the legendary Purple Thai, a landrace strain from Thailand known for its vibrant purple coloration and energetic effects, with a Haze variety, typically Super Silver Haze or another Haze hybrid known for its cerebral stimulation and complex terpene profile. This combination creates a strain that preserves the exotic characteristics of its Thai heritage while incorporating the potency and structure improvements from Haze genetics.
The plant typically displays a striking appearance with deep purple hues that develop in cooler temperatures, contrasting against bright orange pistils. The buds are often elongated and fluffy, characteristic of sativa varieties, with a generous coating of trichomes. The coloration results from anthocyanin pigments that become more pronounced when nighttime temperatures drop during the flowering phase. The strain's aroma profile combines sweet, fruity notes from the Purple Thai lineage with the spicy, earthy undertones characteristic of Haze varieties.
Purple Thai Haze is considered a relatively rare strain in commercial markets, with most cultivation occurring in smaller boutique operations or by specialty breeders. The strain's extended flowering time and specific environmental requirements make it less common than more commercially viable hybrids. However, it maintains a dedicated following among sativa enthusiasts who appreciate its unique combination of visual appeal, complex flavor profile, and energetic cerebral effects that remain true to its landrace heritage while offering modern potency levels.

Purple Thai Haze Strain Growing Information
Purple Thai Haze is considered a challenging strain for novice growers due to its specific requirements and extended flowering time. The plants typically flower in 10-14 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late October to early November in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under ideal conditions.
The strain prefers warm, Mediterranean-like climates with low humidity to prevent mold issues, particularly given its dense bud structure. Plants can reach heights of 150-200 cm indoors and up to 300 cm outdoors, requiring ample vertical space. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training are recommended to manage height and improve light penetration. The purple coloration develops best when nighttime temperatures drop by 10-15°F (5-8°C) during the final 3-4 weeks of flowering. Growers should monitor nutrient levels carefully as the strain can be sensitive to overfeeding, particularly during the flowering phase.
