Auto Amnesia by Gbs
Amnesia × Ruderalis
Auto Amnesia by GB Strains is an autoflowering cannabis variety engineered to provide the classic Amnesia Haze experience in a compact and time-efficient package. Combining ruderalis, indica, and sativa genetics, it offers a strong sativa influence with indica structural support and automatic flowering. This cultivar is favored for its uplifting cerebral stimulation, distinct citrus-haze aromatics, and predictable harvest cycles.
Appearance
Auto Amnesia typically presents as a medium-tall plant with a sativa-leaning structure, often reaching 70-120 cm indoors. It develops a prominent central cola surrounded by satellite branches, with moderate internodal spacing that allows for good light penetration, especially when combined with gentle training techniques. The flowers are characteristically elongated, sometimes showing slight foxtailing under intense lighting, and are densely coated in frosty trichomes. Pistils mature from bright tangerine to copper hues, and the leaves are generally narrow and lime-green, occasionally showing faint purpling under cool temperatures.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Auto Amnesia is dominated by notes of lemon zest, sweet citrus, and classic Haze incense, often accompanied by herbal spice. Secondary scents of pine and pepper can emerge when the flowers are handled. Upon consumption, the flavor profile follows suit, beginning with bright lemon-lime notes and transitioning to sweet herbal and incense undertones. The finish frequently presents a peppery snap, with hints of pine and anise, creating a complex and layered sensory experience.
Effects
Auto Amnesia is recognized for delivering a clean, uplifting, and cerebral stimulation. Its effects are predominantly energetic, providing a clear-headed and buoyant sensation that is characteristic of its Haze heritage. This makes it a suitable choice for daytime use when a boost in focus and mood is desired.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
While specific percentages vary, Auto Amnesia typically exhibits a THC content ranging from 16-22%, with CBD levels below 1%. Its terpene profile is notable for contributing to its signature aroma and flavor, with Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Humulene, Terpinolene, and Ocimene being commonly associated with its citrus, herbal, and spicy notes. The combination of these compounds contributes to its uplifting and energetic effects.
Growing
As an autoflower, Auto Amnesia is relatively straightforward to cultivate, making it attractive for both novice and experienced growers. It does not require light cycle changes to initiate flowering, typically blooming between 3-5 weeks from germination and finishing within 8-12 weeks from sprout. The plant benefits from consistent environmental parameters and precise nutrition. While it can produce robust yields both indoors and outdoors, gentle training methods are recommended for optimal canopy management and light penetration.
Origins & Lineage
Auto Amnesia is an autoflowering variant of the renowned Amnesia strain, developed by GB Strains. Its genetic makeup is a blend of ruderalis, indica, and sativa genetics. The ruderalis component provides the autoflowering trait, while the sativa influence delivers the characteristic cerebral and energetic effects, and the indica genetics contribute to a more manageable plant structure and denser bud formation. This breeding approach preserves the classic Amnesia Haze character while offering a faster, more compact growth cycle.
