Memory Loss Bx2 F2 by Jaws Gear
Amnesia Haze × Face Off OG Bx1
Memory Loss Bx2 F2 is an indica-leaning indica developed by Jaws Gear, representing a refinement of the original Memory Loss. This strain is characterized by its uniformity, increased resin production, and a more sedating profile compared to its predecessor. It offers a potent experience with significant bag appeal.
Appearance
This indica-dominant strain typically presents a medium stature with strong central branching. Its buds are dense and resinous, featuring stacked calyxes that form conical or spear-shaped colas. The high calyx-to-leaf ratio simplifies trimming and enhances visual appeal. Pistils mature from pale peach to rust, and under specific conditions, some phenotypes may display faint lavender hues on the sugar leaves, though green tones are most common.
A notable characteristic is its abundant trichome coverage, forming a uniform frosty layer across the buds and sugar leaves. This dense resin content gives the flowers a tacky feel, even after proper drying and curing, making it well-suited for solventless extraction methods.
Aroma & Flavor
Before grinding, Memory Loss Bx2 F2 offers a complex aroma profile, blending zesty citrus peel with notes of pine and cracked black pepper. A subtle herbal sweetness, reminiscent of fennel or anise, hints at its sativa lineage, while a doughy, creamy undertone can emerge, softening the sharper top notes.
Upon grinding, the aroma intensifies, revealing brighter, limonene-forward citrus notes like lemon zest and grapefruit rind, complemented by resinous pine. The flavor follows suit, presenting a layered experience that evolves from initial citrus and herbal notes to a more profound earthy and creamy finish on the exhale.
Effects
Memory Loss Bx2 F2 is noted for its strong and immediate onset, delivering a potent, body-forward experience. While the original Memory Loss line is sometimes described as energetic, this Bx2 F2 iteration has been specifically selected for a more indica-dominant expression, emphasizing relaxation and suitability for evening use.
Consumers can expect durable effects that are best approached with measured doses, particularly for those new to cannabis. The strain's profile balances a sedating, calming sensation with a perceived brightness in its aromatic qualities.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This cultivar typically tests near the upper end of the 18-26% THC range for indica-dominant flowers. Total terpene content often falls between 1.5% and 3.0% by dry weight, contributing to its pronounced aroma and flavor intensity.
The terpene profile is a blend, often anchored by myrcene and caryophyllene, with limonene providing brighter top notes. Other contributing terpenes can include ocimene, linalool, and humulene, creating a complex aromatic foundation that supports both its floral and earthy characteristics.
Growing
Memory Loss Bx2 F2 is recognized for its garden reliability and uniformity, making it a grower-friendly option. It typically finishes flowering within 8-9 weeks and is described as a medium-height plant with vigorous lateral branching that responds well to training techniques like topping.
The strain produces dense, resinous buds with a high calyx-to-leaf ratio, simplifying the trimming process. Its significant trichome coverage and resin density are advantageous for both flower and concentrate production, with the plant structure lending itself well to solventless extraction.
Origins & Lineage
Memory Loss Bx2 F2 is a creation of Jaws Gear, building upon the foundation of the original Memory Loss strain. The 'Bx2' designation signifies two successive backcrosses to a selected Memory Loss parent, while 'F2' indicates a second filial generation derived from that stabilized pool. This breeding process aims for increased uniformity, heavier resin content, and a more pronounced sedative effect.
The genetic heritage of the original Memory Loss is widely understood to be a cross between Amnesia Haze and Face Off OG Bx1. Jaws Gear's refinement process accentuates the indica-leaning traits and resin production while retaining the characteristic aromatic complexity derived from its parentage.
