Genetics and Characteristics
Strawberry Haze is a feminized photoperiod sativa-dominant (70/30) hybrid with a high THC content of 18-21% bred in the early 2000s by Arjan Roskam, founder of the iconic Green House Seeds. It is a multi-cross of Haze, Kali Mist, Swiss Sativa and Northern Lights #5. Large, fluffy, bright green buds with red fiery stigmas crown long sativa-like branches with surprisingly short internodes arranged around a tall stem with a majestic central cola. Indoors, this strain completes flowering in 9-10 weeks and yields up to 550 g/m2 (19 oz). Outdoors, expect up to 800 g (28 oz) of dry buds per plant by mid to late October.
Flavor and Aroma
The sweet fruit and berry core of the aroma, with distinct floral undertones, reveals subtle chords of spices, herbs, and earthiness as the buds are crushed. A gentle touch of a flame and you'll experience unparalleled pleasure from the vanilla sweetness of the smoke with additional notes of cedar and sandalwood. With a soft and smooth texture, the smoke retains its rich strawberry dessert flavor from the first puff to the last.
Recreational and Medicinal Use
Strawberry Haze delivers a feeling of vivid euphoria and lightness that quickly fills your consciousness. You'll be focused, productive and sociable, charming those around you with the novelty of your ideas and the positive vibrations that emanate from your sativa-charged thinking. With these effects, the strain increases motivation, boosts creativity and effectively combats depression, fatigue, chronic stress, PTSD, muscle spasms and loss of appetite.
Cultivation
Strawberry Haze has a very cooperative nature, but its growth patterns will require certain growing skills from the grower. The strain thrives in a warm, moderately humid climate with a long summer. Before planting seedlings, add drainage components and mycorrhizae to nutrient-rich soil and follow a watering and feeding schedule. Those who want to reveal the full profile of flavors and aromas should give preference to organic cultivation.
Outdoors, due to the impressive size of the plants, take extra steps to keep your plot discreet or consider the option of guerrilla growing. Indoors, choose a spacious grow tent and use techniques such as LST, FIM, topping, mainlining, periodic defoliation, super-cropping, ScrOG/SoG. Growing Strawberry Haze hydroponically with mineral fertilizers and boosters will increase its yield potential, but may slightly reduce the richness and subtlety of its flavors. Remember to flush the root system 7-10 days before harvest. For those lacking experience, grow this strain organically, controlling pH and ppm levels. Use full-spectrum LED panels, adequate ventilation and check the plants regularly for negative changes to optimize the growing process and help you achieve excellent results.
