Royal Orange Haze
Also known as: Orange Haze Royal, Royal Orange
Royal Orange Haze Strain Overview
Royal Orange Haze is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s through selective breeding programs focused on combining citrus-forward genetics with haze lineage. The strain represents a deliberate cross between Orange Crush and Super Silver Haze, blending the sweet citrus characteristics of the former with the energetic, cerebral effects of the latter. Breeders aimed to create a strain with pronounced orange terpene profiles while maintaining the classic haze structure and effects.
The strain is characterized by its vibrant appearance, featuring dense, conical buds with bright orange pistils that contrast against a backdrop of deep green leaves. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The buds typically have a moderate density, falling between the airy structure of pure hazes and the tighter formations of indica varieties. When properly cultivated, Royal Orange Haze produces flowers with excellent bag appeal and visual distinction.
Notable features include its exceptionally strong citrus aroma, which often presents as a blend of fresh oranges, tangerines, and occasionally grapefruit notes. The flavor profile follows the aroma closely, with sweet citrus notes dominating the palate. The strain has gained popularity among sativa enthusiasts who appreciate its clear-headed, uplifting effects combined with its distinctive sensory characteristics. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream haze varieties, it maintains a dedicated following in cannabis communities that value citrus-forward sativas.

Royal Orange Haze Strain Growing Information
Royal Orange Haze is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to maximize its potential. The flowering time typically ranges from 9 to 11 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers warm, Mediterranean-like climates when grown outdoors. Plants exhibit typical sativa growth patterns, stretching significantly during the flowering phase and reaching heights of 150-200 cm indoors and 200-250 cm outdoors. Growers should implement training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration.
Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels (40-50% during flowering) to prevent mold in the dense buds, and providing ample vertical space for the stretch phase. The strain responds well to organic nutrients and benefits from a longer vegetative period to develop a robust structure. Royal Orange Haze is generally resistant to common pests and diseases but can be susceptible to powdery mildew in humid conditions.
