Amnesia Original by Plantamaster Seeds
Haze × Indica strains (unspecified)
Amnesia Original is a sativa-leaning hybrid from Plantamaster Seeds, bred to capture the celebrated cerebral qualities of the Amnesia family. It is recognized for its uplifting and mentally expansive effects, making it a popular choice for daytime consumers. This cultivar offers a distinct personality with potent effects and a classic Haze character.
Appearance
Amnesia Original typically grows with a central, spear-like cola and several side branches, presenting a Christmas-tree structure with minimal training. Buds are moderately dense for a sativa, and while foxtailing may occur under intense heat or light, resin production is notable. Mature flowers often display lime-green bracts and fine, amber to copper pistils.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Amnesia Original is characterized by bright notes of lemon peel, sweet orange zest, and fresh herbs, underpinned by a dry, incense-like cedar scent. Subtle hints of eucalyptus, menthol, and white pepper may emerge, particularly in later flowering stages. Upon consumption, the flavor profile begins with a citrusy spark, often lemon-lime, and a sweet herbal edge, leading to a dry, woody finish reminiscent of sage and incense, with a lingering sweet citrus oil aftertaste that can have a slight minty coolness.
Effects
This cultivar is generally described as energizing and mentally expansive, often producing a rapid onset of effects that can feel uplifting and mood-elevating. The experience is typically focused yet vivid, frequently stimulating creative thoughts, promoting talkativeness, and encouraging engagement with tasks. While physical relaxation is present, it is usually mild and secondary to the pronounced cerebral stimulation, avoiding a heavy couch-lock sensation.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Amnesia Original typically exhibits a terpene profile rich in terpinolene, limonene, beta-caryophyllene, myrcene, and ocimene, often complemented by alpha-pinene and humulene. Lab reports for Amnesia-type strains usually indicate THC levels between 18-25%, with CBD content generally below 1%. Total cannabinoid content can exceed 20% in well-cultivated specimens, with terpene concentrations frequently ranging from 1.5-3.5% after a careful curing process.
Growing
Indoors, Amnesia Original requires strong light and careful canopy management due to significant stretching after the light cycle flip. Flowering typically lasts 9 to 11 weeks. Outdoors and in greenhouses, it performs best in well-draining soil and benefits from large containers or raised beds in suitable climates, with outdoor harvests usually occurring from mid-October to early November in the Northern Hemisphere.
Origins & Lineage
Amnesia Original by Plantamaster Seeds is a modern interpretation of the classic Amnesia lineage, which itself traces back to Haze-dominant breeding from the late 20th century. While exact parentage is not disclosed, its phenotype suggests Haze genetics combined with stabilizing indica influences, aiming to preserve the energizing sativa effects and characteristic citrus-incense aroma.
