Neville’s Haze
Sativa 75 / Indica 25
Origins: Haze x mystery indica
Flowering: 98-110 days
Harvest: late November
Named for the breeder who began this hybrid, Neville’s Haze is a mostly Haze sativa that was crossed to be one-quarter indica. The Haze variety is renowned for being a tall gal, and Neville’s version follows its genetically programmed desire to seek the sun by outgrowing its competitors.
Neville’s Haze leaves are very thin and long, with sparse buds and long internodes. This strain has a pine cone smell with a distinctively floral haze edge. The resin is abundant and the high is very potent and cerebral, encouraging a spiritual or philosophical disposition. With a THC content of 11 percent, Nevil’s Haze can also induce a kick-in-the-pants, psychedelic type of buzz. CBD has been tested at 1.2 percent and CBN present at .1 percent.
Recommended as an indoor plant, this is a variety for those with the patience to wait the full 10 weeks required for a proper finish. Gardeners can skip the vegetative growth cycle and go straight to a 12/12 light schedule. This serves to control the height, and can also compensate somewhat for the long flowering time. Hydroponic methods are preferred indoors, but soil can also be workable. Forget growing this outdoors if you aren’t within 20 degrees latitude of the equator. Nevil’s Haze needs that long season of intense sun, and will be hard pressed to finish outside in most parts of the world. A real connoisseur plant, Neville’s Haze resists stressors well as long as tropics conditions are met.
