Original Amnesia Autoflowering by Dinafem
Amnesia Haze × Ruderalis
Original Amnesia Autoflowering by Dinafem is a sativa-dominant hybrid that combines the celebrated Amnesia Haze genetics with ruderalis for an autoflowering experience. This strain is known for its robust growth and potent effects, blending classic sativa qualities with modern cultivation ease.
Appearance
This autoflowering variety produces dense, medium-sized buds often displaying a mix of green hues with occasional purple undertones. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosted appearance, indicative of high resin content. The plant structure is typically compact and bushy, growing between 60 to 90 centimeters, making it well-suited for indoor environments.
Mature buds are characterized by vibrant pistils, which change from bright orange to rusty brown as harvest approaches, with approximately 70-80% color change signaling peak ripeness.
Aroma and Flavor
The aroma is a complex blend, beginning with a strong burst of citrus and lemon notes layered over earthy undertones. Hints of freshly cut herbs and a subtle peppery spice can also be detected, creating a sophisticated and inviting scent profile. This rich aroma is often described as both uplifting and grounding.
Upon tasting, sharp citrus flavors dominate, immediately followed by a robust earthiness. The palate also experiences herbal and spicy notes, creating a dynamic and well-balanced flavor experience that mirrors its aromatic complexity.
Effects
Users often report an energetic and cerebral high, characterized by a sense of euphoria and heightened creativity. The initial uplifting buzz gradually transitions into a more relaxed state, offering a well-rounded experience. This makes it suitable for daytime use or when seeking inspiration.
Terpenes and Cannabinoids
This strain is noted for its significant THC content, reaching up to 22%, with minimal CBD content below 1%. Key terpenes identified include Myrcene and Limonene, which contribute to its distinct aroma and flavor profiles. Limonene is often present in higher concentrations, contributing to the prominent citrus notes.
Growing
Original Amnesia Autoflowering is designed for ease of cultivation, flowering automatically regardless of light cycles. It typically reaches harvest within 63 to 70 days from germination, offering a rapid lifecycle. The plant's compact and bushy structure is advantageous for indoor growing spaces.
The strain is known for producing high yields relative to its size and rapid growth cycle. It is considered a resilient variety, capable of maintaining consistent cannabinoid and terpene profiles even under varied environmental conditions.
Origins and Lineage
Developed by Dinafem, Original Amnesia Autoflowering is an evolution of the legendary Amnesia Haze lineage, which emerged in the early 1990s. It was created by crossing the classic Amnesia Haze genetics with ruderalis strains to impart autoflowering characteristics.
This hybridization resulted in a strain that merges the potent, sativa-dominant traits of Amnesia Haze with the resilience and fast-growing nature of ruderalis. The inclusion of indica genetics also contributes to a sturdy plant structure, balancing uplifting effects with robust growth.
