Kush Haze
Kush Haze is a modern hybrid lineage descended directly from Haze. Cultivators categorize this strain as a moderate-difficulty grow that thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments. With an efficient 63-day flowering period, the plant is known for producing a consistently high yield. Its genetic influence is notable for producing the progeny strain Tikal.
The terpene profile of Kush Haze is characterized by a complex dominance of terpinolene, followed in intensity by myrcene and ocimene. Secondary contributions from caryophyllene, beta-pinene, and limonene add layers to the sensory experience, while trace amounts of pinene, alpha-terpinene, gamma-terpinene, humulene, eucalyptol, and nerolidol complete the composition. This specific chemical array defines the profile of the cultivar, offering a distinct aromatic presence derived from the intersection of these twelve compounds.
As a THC-dominant variety, Kush Haze is primarily sought for its ability to induce effects described as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These properties make the strain a functional choice for those managing stress and pain, and it is frequently utilized by patients seeking assistance with sleep. Through its genetic contributions, specifically in the development of offspring like Tikal, Kush Haze maintains a verified standing within modern breeding programs.
