Appearance
Amnesia Lemon Auto typically presents a compact, Christmas-tree-like structure, reaching heights between 70-140 cm depending on growing conditions. It features a prominent central cola with several productive side branches. The leaves are sativa-influenced with thinner fingers, though slightly broader than pure Haze varieties.

Some phenotypes may exhibit subtle lavender hues on sugar leaves under cooler temperatures.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Amnesia Lemon Auto is characterized by a bright lemon zest and lime pith, complemented by a sweet citrus oil reminiscent of candy. Underlying notes include classic Haze incense, with herbal, woody, and cedar-like undertones. Upon curing, the bouquet can develop into lemon curd and faint vanilla. Breaking apart buds releases intensified lemon-lime soda notes, with hints of pine and mint. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, delivering a tangy lemon snap with sweet zest and floral honey notes on the inhale. The exhale leaves a lingering herbal and peppery sensation, with subsequent draws revealing lemon bar sweetness balanced by a subtle green tea bitterness.
Effects

The effects are predominantly driven by its sativa-leaning genetics, offering mental clarity without significant sedation.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
While specific terpene profiles can vary, common terpenes found in lemon-haze varieties include Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Pinene, Terpinolene, and Ocimene. These contribute to its distinct aroma and flavor. Amnesia Lemon Auto typically tests between 18-23% THC, with CBD levels generally below 1%, indicating a THC-dominant experience. Minor cannabinoids like CBG may also be present.
