Description
Hawaii Maui Waui Regular is a true landrace sativa from the Hawaiian Islands, carrying a THC range of 14% to 19%. As a regular strain, she produces both male and female plants, giving growers the option to select phenotypes or save pollen for breeding projects.
Break open a bud and tropical citrus hits first, layered with sweet mango and pineapple notes. The buds grow tall and thin, spear-shaped, with an abundance of sugar leaf and pistils.
Indoors, she flowers in about 9 to 11 weeks and grows thin, woody branches with long internodal spacing, taking some experience to manage well. Yield potential reaches up to 1.5 oz/ft² indoors.
Grow info
Hawaii Maui Waui Regular is rated a hard grow, best suited to growers with prior sativa experience. Because this is a regular strain, growers will need to identify and remove male plants before flowering if seed-free buds are the goal, unless pollen is wanted for breeding.
Indoor growing
Indoors, she grows thin woody branches with large internodal spacing and long side branches. Her fingered leaves grow long and serrated, sometimes as big as a hand, adding to the maintenance she needs. Flowering takes 9-11 weeks, with timing depending on phenotype, pot size, and light intensity. Indoor yield reaches up to 450 g/m², or about 1.5 oz per square foot. Plant height at harvest runs 59-70 in (150-180 cm), so growers need plenty of vertical space.
Outdoor growing
Outdoors, Hawaii Maui Waui Regular can grow massive, with fan leaves that give her a true tropical look. Left untrained, she may exceed 78 in (200 cm). She suits growers with hot climates and long seasons, since her extended flowering period needs time to finish. Plant in spring for a harvest around mid to late October. Outdoor yield can reach 17.5 oz (500 g) per plant in a hot climate, with a south-facing location recommended for best results.
Training and plant care
This strain benefits from training to manage her height once flowering starts. Tying down or topping a few weeks before flowering helps control stretch and keep the final height in check. She thrives under intense sunlight and high UV levels and handles heavy winds well, making her suited to growers at higher altitudes. Growers working with regular seeds should check plants closely as flowering begins to spot and remove males early.
