Honey Melon Haze is a special strain of cannabis seeds that offers a tropical scent and a delightful flavor profile. It combines the best qualities of California Orange Bud and Orange Haze, resulting in a strain with a prominent citrus taste. This sativa-dominant variety can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, making it suitable for intermediate to experienced growers.
Honey Melon Haze grows with long lateral branches and large internodal spacing, thanks to its sativa dominance. The plant has a open structure, allowing for better airflow without the need for heavy defoliation. The indica influence is evident in the large fan leaves. With feminized seeds, there is no need to worry about male plants in the garden.
This strain has a relatively short flowering time of 65 to 70 days, which is unusual for sativa-heavy strains. This makes it possible to grow Honey Melon Haze alongside other hybrids in home gardens. However, indoor growers should consider the plant's height, as it can reach up to 150 to 200 cm under artificial lighting. Outdoors, it grows even taller, reaching heights of 250+ cm.
Honey Melon Haze is known for its XL yields, producing around 500 to 600 grams per m2 indoors and over 600 grams per plant outdoors. The dried flowers are visually appealing, with large lime-green buds and bright orange pistils. The buds are covered in a generous layer of trichomes, creating a stunning herbal masterpiece.
This strain can be cultivated year-round in controlled indoor environments. Outdoor growers should be in a warm and sunny region with a Mediterranean climate. Due to its tall growth, some form of training, such as SCROG, SOG, Supercropping, or Lollipopping, is recommended to manage its growth.
The flavor profile of Honey Melon Haze follows the traditional sativa characteristics, with fruity, sweet, and citrus notes. It stands out from other strains with its tropical vibes. The effects are uplifting and euphoric, providing a cerebral high followed by a mild body relaxation.
During the flowering stage, indoor growers will notice a light sweet citrus smell, while outdoor growers will enjoy the refreshing aromas in the air. Once dried and cured, Honey Melon Haze offers a unique and uplifting terpene profile, with powerful citrus notes accompanied by sweet and tropical aromas.
The taste of Honey Melon Haze is reminiscent of a freshly peeled orange, with a sharp citrus bite. This flavor can be attributed to the California Orange Bud in its genetics. Alongside the orange flavor, there are also hints of sweet citrus and subtle pine undertones for those with a refined palate.
