Amnesia Haze by Royal Queen Seeds
Haze × Southeast Asian × Jamaican × Afghani
Amnesia Haze by Royal Queen Seeds is a sativa-dominant hybrid celebrated for its bright, cerebral effects and energetic uplift. Originating from classic Haze genetics refined through European breeding, this strain offers a potent experience favored for daytime use. It is recognized for its distinctive aroma and flavor profile, blending citrus and herbal notes.
Appearance
Amnesia Haze typically develops a tall, slender plant structure with widely spaced nodes and flexible stems. Its buds are characterized by elongated, spear-like formations, often exhibiting mild foxtailing, particularly under intense lighting. The flowers are generally airy rather than dense, with a favorable calyx-to-leaf ratio. Visually, the buds display shades of green, accented by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that give them a frosted appearance.
Aroma & Flavor
The aromatic profile of Amnesia Haze is a complex blend of sweet fruitiness, citrus zest, and an underlying herbal, incense-like quality. Initial scents often feature prominent lemon and lime notes, complemented by floral undertones reminiscent of pine. Upon curing, these aromas can deepen, revealing hints of mango and other orchard fruits. The flavor follows suit, delivering a punchy citrus taste at the forefront, which transitions into herbal and spicy notes. Users often describe a smooth, floral vapor with a lingering citrus oil sensation, and a clean, slightly woody finish when combusted.
Effects
Amnesia Haze is known for delivering a pronounced cerebral uplift and a euphoric experience. Its effects are often described as energetic, talkative, and creativity-forward, making it a popular choice for daytime consumption. Some users report a giggly disposition. However, at higher doses, the strain can produce a more intense, potentially racy sensation. Common reported negative effects include dry mouth and occasional dizziness.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This strain typically exhibits a high THC content, frequently testing above 20% and sometimes reaching up to 27% in optimized conditions. CBD levels are generally minimal, often falling between 0-1%. The terpene profile is characteristic of Haze genetics, with terpinolene often being a dominant compound, contributing to its uplifting and euphoric effects. Other terpenes such as myrcene, limonene, caryophyllene, linalool, humulene, and ocimene are also commonly present, influencing the strain's aroma, flavor, and overall experience.
Growing
Amnesia Haze is a sativa-dominant strain that typically grows tall with elongated internodes. It is well-suited for indoor cultivation, particularly using methods like SCROG or LST to manage its vertical growth. The flowering period is generally moderate for a Haze variety, allowing for more manageable harvests. Growers can expect a productive yield, especially when provided with optimal conditions and sufficient light. The plant's structure and foxtailing calyxes are characteristic of its Haze heritage.
Origins & Lineage
Amnesia Haze represents a fusion of classic Haze genetics with modern European breeding techniques. Its lineage is a composite of various sativa-forward families, often including contributions from Southeast Asian and Jamaican landraces, and sometimes Afghani strains for structural support. Royal Queen Seeds' version is noted for popularizing a stable, high-yielding phenotype that brings the traditional Haze brightness to a wider range of growers. It has become an internationally recognized strain, appreciated for its potency and distinctive profile.
