Amnesia Pupil by Massmedicalstrains
Amnesia Haze × Star Pupil
Amnesia Pupil is a predominantly sativa hybrid developed by MassMedicalStrains, recognized for its vibrant purple phenotypes and imaginative breeding. This cultivar merges the classic energetic and cerebral qualities of haze genetics with the distinct incense-like aroma and artistic personality of the Pupil line, offering a thought-provoking and uplifting experience.
Appearance
Amnesia Pupil typically features elongated, spear-like colas reminiscent of haze strains, often displaying subtle plum or violet streaks, especially when exposed to cooler night temperatures during late flowering. The buds are generally medium in density, providing good terpene preservation and reduced mold risk. Abundant capitate-stalked trichomes give the flowers a frosted appearance, indicating robust resin production.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma profile of Amnesia Pupil is characterized by a bright citrus-haze core, layered with spicy floral notes and a hint of nostalgic incense. Flavors often described include citrus, floral, herbal, and hints of lavender or mango, contributing to a complex and lingering sensory experience.
Effects
This strain is known for its mentally elevating effects, providing a clear and shining onset that can inspire focus and creativity without being overly sedating. While primarily cerebral, some phenotypes may also offer a gentle body calm, making it suitable for daytime use and inspiring focus for tasks or outdoor activities.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Amnesia Pupil's terpene profile commonly includes Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Humulene, Terpinolene, and Ocimene, contributing to its distinct aroma and effects. While specific cannabinoid percentages vary by phenotype and cultivation, THC levels are typically in the high-teens to mid-20s, with CBD content below 1%.
Growing
As a mostly sativa hybrid, Amnesia Pupil exhibits strong vigor and a tendency for vertical stretch, particularly in haze-leaning phenotypes. The Star Pupil influence can contribute to broader branching and enhanced color expression under cooler conditions. Flowering times are generally between 9-11 weeks indoors, with potential for striking visual appeal and a satisfying resin production for growers.
Origins & Lineage
Amnesia Pupil is a creation of MassMedicalStrains, a breeder known for unique crosses and purple phenotypes. It is a hybrid resulting from the cross of an Amnesia-type haze, contributing cerebral energy and citrus notes, with the Star Pupil line, which imparts floral incense characteristics, structural improvements, and potential for anthocyanin expression.
