Arjan’s Ultra Haze #1 is a mighty sativa, the deep green
daughter of a Neville’s Haze/Cambodian mother and Laotian
father. This strain rewards the grower with a very strong high.
It all but kicks you into a new level of mental awareness and
visual pleasure. The effect is lucid, stimulating and ethereal,
good for inner exploration activities such as meditation, yoga,
dance, painting or singing. The flavor is pungent, a mixture of
menthol, musk and pine, followed by a strong incense
aftertaste with notes of earth and sandalwood.
Ideally, a crop of this strain should be organized with one
plant for every square meter (10 square feet). Arjan’s Ultra
Haze #1 follows her haze heritage, growing into a large, lanky
weed that may reach heights of over 12 feet when planted with
no root limitations. To keep the size around 5-6 feet, plants
should be cultivated in 2-gallon size containers. Although
branchy, this sativa doesn’t get in her own way—her limbs form
at 45-degree angles to the main stem, allowing light to reach
the inner part of the plants and ripen the flowers in a uniform
manner. Her pliable branches have long internodes where
substantial colas will form, creating a need for support as the
crop approaches harvest. By then, her branches will droop
under the weight of the buds, which are unusually compact,
dense, and resinous for a sativa, with long, thick hairs and a
very irregular shape due to her wild calyx development.
Indoors, Arjan’s Ultra Haze #1 can be grown in hydro or soil.
As is typical, hydroponics tends to maximize indoor yields at
the expense of intensity in flavor. This variety has a good
resistance to pests and to heat, but it fears cold nights. She
likes normal quantities of feedings, with some extra P and K in
the last four weeks of flowering. Outdoors, this near-pure
sativa must be raised in a climate with a long growing season,
as she will not finish until the end of November in the Northern
Hemisphere. South of the equator, Arjan’s Ultra Haze #1 will
finish by mid-June.
