Auto Gorilla OG X Auto Purple Amnesia by Short Stuff Seedbank
Auto Gorilla OG × Auto Purple Amnesia
Auto Gorilla Og X Auto Purple Amnesia by Short Stuff Seedbank is an autoflowering hybrid resulting from a cross between their Auto Gorilla OG and Auto Purple Amnesia lines. This cultivar integrates ruderalis genetics to ensure rapid, photoperiod-independent flowering. It is bred to deliver the potency and resin production of classic photoperiod strains within a compact, fast-finishing autoflowering package.
Appearance and Morphology
Plants typically reach 70-110 cm indoors, with some phenotypes potentially exceeding 120 cm with CO2 supplementation. The structure is hybrid, featuring a prominent central cola supported by several strong lateral branches. Buds are densely packed and conical to spear-shaped, often exhibiting a frosted appearance due to a high resin load. Purple phenotypes may display violet to deep plum coloration in bracts and sugar leaves, particularly under cooler night temperatures during late bloom.
The strain inherits a high calyx-to-leaf ratio, simplifying the trimming process. Trichome density is notable, leading to significant kief yields. Pistils transition from cream-white to orange-brown as the buds mature.
Aroma and Flavor Profile
The aroma profile is a complex blend, marrying the fuel-like and pine notes of its OG heritage with the citrus and floral incense characteristics of its Amnesia lineage. Early in development, scents of lime zest and pine are prominent, underscored by subtle diesel undertones. As flowering progresses, the bouquet intensifies, revealing layered notes of gas, ripe citrus, sweet berry, and a grounding pepper-wood base. Odor intensity is generally rated as high.
On the palate, flavors mirror the aroma, presenting a front end of diesel and citrus, followed by pine and sweet berry notes, with a peppery caryophyllene finish. Curing and slow drying are reported to enhance the sweetness and complexity, bringing forward nuances of lavender and berry candy. The mouthfeel is described as medium-weight and resinous, leaving a lingering lemon-diesel aftertaste.
Effects
This hybrid is noted for its balanced effects, often described as a blend of indica-leaning body sensations and sativa-like mental uplift. While specific effects can vary between phenotypes, users report a generally potent experience that is well-suited for intermediate to advanced growers seeking quality autoflowers. The strain is often recommended for its ability to provide a complex sensory experience.
Terpenes and Cannabinoids
Auto Gorilla Og X Auto Purple Amnesia typically exhibits high THC levels, with reports ranging from 18% to 24% under optimal growing conditions. CBD content is generally below 1%, with minor cannabinoids like CBG also present in trace amounts. The terpene profile is rich and complex, contributing to the strain's distinct aroma and flavor characteristics.
Prominent terpenes reported include Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Pinene, Humulene, and Terpinolene. These compounds contribute to the earthy, citrus, spicy, and pine notes, as well as potentially influencing the overall effects and therapeutic applications.
Growing Characteristics
As an autoflowering hybrid, this strain is designed for speed and resilience, completing its life cycle in approximately 70-85 days from seed. It is adaptable to various growing setups, thriving indoors under 18/6 or 20/4 light cycles and capable of outdoor cultivation in temperate climates, flowering regardless of day length. The plant structure is generally manageable, with moderate internodal spacing and strong lateral branching.
Yields are considered good for an autoflower, especially given its compact size. The strain is noted for its high calyx-to-leaf ratio, which aids in efficient manicuring. It is often recommended for intermediate and advanced growers due to its genetic depth and potential for premium-quality autoflower production.
Origins and Lineage
Auto Gorilla Og X Auto Purple Amnesia was developed by Short Stuff Seedbank, a breeder recognized for advancing autoflowering genetics. The strain is a cross between Auto Gorilla OG and Auto Purple Amnesia, with ruderalis genetics integrated to establish the autoflowering trait. The heritage is a blend of ruderalis, indica, and sativa, engineered for speed, potency, and yield.
The breeding aims to combine the resin density and fuel-forward profile of Gorilla OG with the incense-citrus complexity and uplifting qualities of Purple Amnesia. This results in a cultivar that offers a balanced genetic influence, with indica traits often dominating bud morphology and sativa characteristics influencing aroma and mental effects.
