Auto Amnesia by Real Gorilla Seeds
Ruderalis × Indica × Sativa
Auto Amnesia by Real Gorilla Seeds is an autoflowering hybrid that captures the essence of the classic Amnesia family. It is bred to provide a Haze-forward uplift in a compact and resilient plant. This strain combines speed and hardiness with a complex aroma and clear-headed effects, making it a popular choice for both growers and consumers.
Appearance
Auto Amnesia plants typically exhibit medium internodal spacing and reach heights of 70-120 cm indoors and up to 150 cm outdoors. The plant structure often features a prominent central cola with several strong side branches. Its leaves are a mix of slender sativa-like leaflets and broader, darker fan leaves lower down. Buds are known for their medium density, a frosted trichome appearance, and a favorable calyx-to-leaf ratio that aids in trimming and air circulation. Some phenotypes may display faint lavender or rose hues under cooler temperatures.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Auto Amnesia is characterized by citrus zest and sweet pine, layered over herbal spice notes, reminiscent of the Amnesia lineage. Common descriptors include lemon peel and green mango, complemented by hints of cardamom and cedar. A subtle peppery undertone suggests the presence of caryophyllene. Upon curing, the aroma can evolve into a more integrated citrus-cedar profile with mild vanilla-herbal nuances.
Effects
This strain is known for delivering a cerebral clarity and an uplifting high. The effects are generally stimulating, promoting focus and creativity. While it offers a bright, energizing experience, it is typically associated with a relatively low sedative load compared to more indica-dominant varieties. This makes it suitable for daytime use or when a clear headspace is desired.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Auto Amnesia contains THC levels typically ranging from 18-22%, with CBD content below 1%. The terpene profile is often led by terpinolene, contributing a fresh, bright quality. Other notable terpenes can include myrcene, limonene, caryophyllene, humulene, and ocimene, which collectively contribute to the strain's complex aroma and flavor characteristics, including citrus, herbal, and floral notes.
Origins & Lineage
Auto Amnesia is an autoflowering hybrid derived from ruderalis, indica, and sativa genetics, with its identity strongly linked to the Amnesia and Haze families. The ruderalis genetics provide the autoflowering trait, allowing the plant to flower automatically based on age. Indica and sativa contributions shape its structure, effects, and the characteristic aroma profile, aiming to preserve the uplifting Haze-like qualities in a more manageable, fast-flowering plant.
Growing
This cultivar is designed for ease of cultivation, incorporating the hardy and fast-growing traits of ruderalis. It is known for its resilience and forgiving nutrient requirements compared to traditional Haze strains. The autoflowering nature ensures a consistent seed-to-harvest time, typically between 70-85 days, making it suitable for growers in various climates. Plants generally maintain a manageable size, particularly indoors.
