Cannalope Haze serves ripe melon with enough spice to keep breakfast interesting. Sweet tropical fruit fills the nose, then pepper, floral notes, and a little citrus sharpen the finish. It smells easygoing. The cerebral lift can have considerably more to say.
Origin 1: DNA Genetics created the original from Haze Brothers genetics, associated with Original Haze, and a Mexican sativa. Selection produced an unusually quick-flowering Haze with a distinctly melon-heavy flavor. DNA’s entry earned second place in the Sativa Breeders category at the 2005 IC 420 Growers Cup.
Origin 2: The Plant developed its same-name release from an original DNA Genetics clone obtained from Holland. This is a continuation of the DNA family, with feminized seeds and a listed 75/25 sativa lean. The Plant emphasizes vigorous growth, compact resinous flowers, and a more relaxing expression.
Melon leads the flavor without swallowing the Haze underneath. Earth, herbs, and pepper give the sweetness some backbone, while certain selections add warmer cinnamon-like spice or a tangy edge. Floral and fruity aromas can stay loud after drying. Apparently, subtlety wasn’t part of the selection criteria.
Flowers can finish firm and compact, with light-green coloring, orange hairs, and plenty of visible resin. The Plant’s version is specifically described as producing bulky, tightly packed flowers. DNA growers also report particularly frosty selections, giving that fruit-heavy nose something equally sticky to back it up.
Fans of the smoke circle describe an energetic, happy cerebral lift that can encourage creativity and focus, with physical relaxation varying between selections. Some cuts keep the head clearer; others bring a noticeably softer, calmer finish. The Plant leans into that relaxed side. There’s more than one way for this melon to mellow you out.
DNA Genetics’ original regular seed release lists nine weeks of flowering, with selected plants finishing in about eight weeks. It suits indoor and outdoor cultivation, with an October harvest listed for appropriate Northern Hemisphere conditions. Growers describe stretched plants, a favorable flower-to-leaf ratio, and good yields. A quick finish for a Haze still leaves room for differences between seed-grown plants.
The Plant’s feminized version lists nine weeks indoors, a height of 100–120 cm, and indoor yields of 350–400 g/m². Its outdoor finish is listed for November, so it needs a season that can accommodate the later harvest. Those dates belong to the respective releases, not one interchangeable grow calendar.
Both versions emphasize heavy trichome production, and DNA specifically praises the original’s bubble hash quality. That makes it an interesting extraction candidate, though a frosty flower alone doesn’t guarantee wash returns. The melon has credentials; the keeper still has to earn its spot.
