Strain Review – Chocolate Haze (RQS)
Genetics: Chocolate Haze by Royal Queen Seeds
Light cycle: 12/12 from seed
Grow medium: 100% coco, automated Blumat system
Environment: Sensor-driven GGS setup with CO₂ enrichment
From the very beginning, Chocolate Haze showed strong, consistent growth. Even under a 12/12 light cycle from seed, these girls thrived — a clear sign of robust, adaptable genetics. The plants responded beautifully to controlled CO₂ levels and showed excellent vigor throughout veg and bloom.
The flowers developed with dense structure and impressive resin coverage, accompanied by a rich, sweet aroma that really lives up to the name. Notes of earthy cocoa, sweet citrus, and a touch of haze complexity come through loud and clear, even during mid-bloom.
Despite a bit more leaf in the buds than ideal (which I’ll fine-tune next round with light intensity and DLI management), the structure remained open enough to avoid mold and handled high humidity well. Trichome production was off the charts, and the terpene profile filled the tent with a warm, chocolatey haze that made every check-in a treat.
The high is energetic and uplifting — classic sativa with a euphoric edge and a surprisingly smooth comedown. Great for daytime, creative sessions, or just vibing out with music.
Final verdict:
Chocolate Haze is a top-tier sativa that performs incredibly well in a dialed-in setup. Stable genetics, great yield potential, and one of the most pleasant terp profiles I’ve grown in a while. Can’t wait to run this strain again — next time with even tighter environmental control thanks to my ChatGPT-powered grow plan
Highly recommended to anyone looking for flavor, energy, and production — all in one plant.
