A potent sativa beloved for “daytime discovers,” the Princess Haze strain is capable of delivering a delightful burst of creative focus and uplift that some say makes them feel elevated, spiritually attuned, and ready for serious exploration.
If you’re interested in how specific strains of cannabis can help inspire focus and tame nagging symptoms such as pain and depression, you’ll want to read our roundup of Princess Haze strain effects and characteristics. We’ll share vital stats about its flavors, aromas, terpenes, effects, and potential benefits, as well as basic growing info.
If you’ve ever visited our Strain Library, you already know that different types of cannabis are typically categorized as being a sativa, an indica, or a hybrid (or blend) of the two. And as a sativa-leaning hybrid strain, Princess Haze is known for delivering cerebral stimulation and uplift. In fact, when you see “haze” in a cannabis strain’s name, that’s a hint that it’s an energizing sativa (or sativa-leaning) hybrid strain.
While some researchers believe the terms “sativa” and “indica” are obsolete, here at Vireo Health we use them because we believe they give value to customers by helping them predict a given strain’s effects. You can learn more about their history and meaning here.
As with any other plant or animal, the characteristics of the Princess Haze strain are largely determined by the characteristics of its parents. In this case, those strains are:
The Princess strain is characterized by an unusual blend of sweet and tropical fruit scents balanced by a bracing incense-like aroma. The major terpenes found in Princess Haze include:
We’ve written about terpenes before. These crucial compounds play a major role in the cannabis ecosystem, imparting the bulk of a given strain’s characteristic aromas (as well as delivering potential medical benefits, too).
As the dominant terpene in the Princess strain, myrcene brings its characteristic sweet, earthy, and spicy notes. And in terms of medical effects, it may boost the strain’s potential pain-killing effects.
How? Myrcene has been shown to reduce the perception of pain by helping stimulate opioid receptors, though this effect is far more sustainable in the long term than with synthetic opioids. On top of this, myrcene has been used to fight inflammation and tame insomnia.
As with all strains, the bulk of Princess Haze strain effects come from its lineup of cannabinoids, the family of natural compounds that includes THC and CBD. Clinical studies suggest that THC helps relieve pain by acting as an anti-inflammatory. And that characteristic euphoria? It helps reduce the perception of pain.
Princess Haze also contains CBG, a cannabinoid that may help control irritable bowel disease (IBD) and other disorders. You can learn more about this intriguing cannabinoid here.
In many cultivators’ experience, Princess Haze grows equally well indoors or out. Either way, be prepared for a plant with notable resin production. For this reason, many growers suggest staking the central stem, as the flowers can get somewhat heavy. Watch over it carefully, and you’ll be rewarded with a bountiful harvest in roughly 57 – 63 days.
