Appearance

This hybrid typically displays a sativa-leaning structure with medium-long internodes and upward-reaching branches. Buds are characterized by a noticeable calyx stack, often with a lime to emerald green hue, and a significant resinous sheen. Orange to copper pistils are common, and well-grown examples feature a frosty trichome coating. The calyx-to-leaf ratio is favorable for a haze, contributing to visual appeal.

Aroma & Flavor

The aroma is dominated by a bright citrus rind profile, featuring notes of lemon and sweet lime, complemented by pine and floral undertones. Underlying scents include sweet herbal facets, reminiscent of basil and fennel, with subtle peppery and incense-like wood notes. This translates to a flavor profile that mirrors its aroma, offering a clean and vibrant sensory experience.

Effects

Users can expect an energetic and euphoric experience, often accompanied by a sense of focus. The effects are generally uplifting and motivational, making it suitable for daytime use. This profile aligns with the expectations set by its Amnesia heritage, known for providing a stimulating edge.

Terpenes & Cannabinoids

Amnesia Amazon Haze is characterized by its THC-dominant cannabinoid profile, typically reaching around 24% THC with minimal CBD. Chemotypically, it leans towards terpenes such as terpinolene and limonene, contributing to its citrus and pine notes. Myrcene, beta-caryophyllene, and humulene are also commonly present, adding complexity to its aroma and effects.

Growing

Bred by R-KIEM Seeds, this hybrid is designed to be more forgiving than traditional tropical hazes, incorporating ruderalis genetics for potentially shorter crop times and day-neutral flowering in some phenotypes. It responds well to training and exhibits decent branching. Indoor plants can reach moderate heights, while outdoor plants can grow significantly larger. Good airflow is recommended, especially for the dense, resinous tops.

Origins & Lineage

Amnesia Amazon Haze is a modern hybrid from R-KIEM Seeds, a European breeder. Its lineage is described as a three-pool cross involving ruderalis, indica, and sativa genetics. The Amnesia portion nods to award-winning, citrus-forward sativa lines, while the indica and ruderalis contributions aim to enhance resilience, bud structure, and potentially shorten flowering duration.
