Sugar Haze Regular is a mind-blowingly potent indica-sativa hybrid strain that is a cross of a Colombian Santa Marta with Sam the Skunkman's Original Haze creation. The Santa Marta hails from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in North West Colombia. At 5,700 meters it is the world's highest coastal mountain range being situated just 42km from the Carribean coastline. Encompassing 17,000 km² this botanical wonderland is the source of no less than 36 rivers. Several different cannabis strains thrive there and are used locally by the native dwellers. Since the 1960s it has attracted American cannabis enthusiasts during South American adventures.
Sugar Haze is a very fast-flowering sativa-dominant Haze with a potential THC content of 23% that is not recommended for either the novice or casual user. Sweet-tasting and a heavy-hitter, its short flowering period can be traced back to highly selective cross-breeding for the desired characteristics such that it is possible to grow outdoors where it will finish by the end of October in northern latitudes.
Strain FAQ
What makes people say that indoor Sativa cultivation can be difficult?
Due to their height and long flowering time, Sativas are said to be harder to grow indoors. This has led to inventive cultivation and plant training methods to squeeze cannabis skyscrapers into smaller indoor spaces without sacrificing yield.
Are strains suitable for greenhouses more sustainable?
Strains that absorb sunlight in a greenhouse can reduce the need for artificial lights and climate control, saving the world and the legal producer money. This emphasis on natural light makes the operation more eco-friendly and is said to promote healthy plant growth.
How have Haze strains affected culture?
Haze strains have shaped cannabis culture, inspiring art, music, and even strain names. "Haze" is the gold standard for sativa strains that are exciting and cerebral.
How have breeders improved medium flowering time strains' pest and disease resistance?
In pest-prone areas, selective breeding has made some medium-flowering cultivars more resistant to pests and illnesses. Increased resistance is said to be able to reduce chemical treatment use, enabling healthier output and decreasing maintenance.
Why was cannabis grown in Central America and the Caribbean historically significant?
Traditional cannabis cultivation and use in Central America and the Caribbean dates back centuries. This long tradition has produced genetically pure, local-adapted landrace strains. Many current popular hybrids are in fact based on these landraces.
