Amnesia Haze Feminized

Amnesia Haze is a blend of several carefully selected strains, and it's basically a salad bowl of genetics. Its complex bloodline is mainly made-up of various landraces from around the world. Handpicked for their sharp flavor and high THC capacity, the congregation of indigenous Sativa strains includes varieties from Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Jamaica.

The Indica portion of the gene pool is mostly from South Asian Indica and Afghani varieties. Together with a Hawaiian hybrid, these three further enhance the taste and flavor profile of the offspring while shortening the flowering time. Completing the mix is the illustrious Haze. Also a multi-cross of landraces, it induces a creative buzz and enlivening body high.

The complex genetic profile provides plenty of reasons to love Amnesia Haze. Its buds, bearing copious amounts of resin, will soon entice you with a fragrance of fresh citrus and soil-like earthiness. These are high THC seeds, powered by up to 25% THC, the flowers have a euphoric and revitalizing effect that makes the strain excellent for daytime use. The plant's therapeutic properties provide potential relief of depression, stress, anxiety and chronic pain, all while stimulating the appetite.

Such a long list of benefits have earned the strain a shelf full of accolades. It went home with first-place wins in 3 different competitions in The Netherlands, including the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2004. Fast forward to 2012, and the plant was hailed Best Sativa in the same tournament.

If you want to experience this award-winner for yourself, why not try growing your own crop from Homegrown Cannabis Co.'s feminized seeds? Although the plant's flowering cycle extends up to 13 weeks, it's uncomplicated to maintain, gives high yields, and produces heavenly effects. All this makes it well worth the time and effort.

Growing Amnesia Haze from Feminized Seeds

Although Sativa-dominant, Amnesia Haze displays both Sativa and Indica characteristics as it matures. It grows to less than 4 feet tall but has slim-fingered leaves and long intermodal gaps. Its buds are dense, conical and tapered, with a thick coat of resin. As the plant reaches its prime, all its colas turn frosty white, giving it a snow-capped look.

To achieve maximum yields, cultivate Amnesia Haze in a hydroponics system. Also maintain high EC levels and expose it to plenty of light. When growing indoors, you should use 600W lamps and keep the RH level within the ideal range. Once flowering starts, it should be no higher than 60%, and then it should be further reduced to 50 to 55% as the blooming stage proceeds. Finally, sustain humidity at around 45 to 50% in the final 2 to 3 weeks. You should also trim the unnecessary fan leaves at top of the plant to let air and light reach the lower-lying flowering nodes.

Amnesia Haze takes quite a long time to reach full maturity – up to 13 weeks in controlled environments – so it is not a common choice for commercial cultivation. To make the wait worthwhile and accomplish yields of up to 2.13 ounces per square foot, grow it in a Sea of Green setup.

If growing outdoors, you'll need to start the endeavor by spring and collect no later than late October in the northern hemisphere to avoid the cold weather. In places with a predominantly warm climate like Australia, North Africa, California and the Mediterranean, up to 24.7 ounces of fresh flowers per plant can be harvested.

Fragrance and Flavor

Amnesia Haze buds boasts a zesty lemon fragrance that's toned down by hints of earthiness and cedarwood. Breaking apart the flowers reveals a modest spicy scent, which is typical to most strains in the Haze family. When lit up, a properly dried and cured Amnesia Haze is smooth on inhale, with a slight tinge of spiciness that tickles the palate into submission.

Effects

Excellent for daytime consumption, Amnesia Haze delivers 2 to 3 hours of mind-race. When used moderately, it inspires new ideas and enhances creativity – but larger doses may cause a mental blackout, hence its name.

The high is almost immediate, inducing deep contemplation, as well as a sudden intense awareness of surroundings. For this reason, it's crucial to enjoy this strain in a positive setting where the cerebral sharpening can lead to immense euphoria. Also anticipate an improvement in mood and energy, which can be really useful when engaging in activities that are best performed with optimal mind and body function, such as exercising, hiking, and even sex.

Along with the physically enlivening effect comes a relaxing sensation that helps prevent hyperactivity. A strong urge to chat and chomp on snacks will also arrive in full force. For this reason, it's a popular social smoke and a great one to enjoy an hour or so before a meal.

Medical

Although famous for causing memory impairment, Amnesia Haze is also said to contain loads of therapeutic properties. It's regarded as having an immense medicinal value that is robust enough to ease a number of mental and physical conditions. To reap its benefits, users need to ensure they stick to the recommended dosage.

The strain's instantly-elating effect may prove useful to patients suffering from stress and anxiety. It's also been used to treat depression, PTSD, mood swings and bipolar disorder. Besides those conditions, its focus-enhancing nature may lessen the symptoms of attention deficit disorders.

The herb's analgesic properties may provide fast relief from conditions that cause chronic pain, while its anti-inflammatory compounds work below the surface to reduce swelling, providing comfort that is more than skin deep. This painkilling one-two punch may help ease the symptoms of migraines, headaches, arthritis, muscle spasms, multiple sclerosis, PMS and fibromyalgia. On top of that, Amnesia Haze also sends a wave of revitalizing energy that helps defeat fatigue.

Finally, Amnesia Haze may also help boost the appetite, which has made it popular among people suffering from eating disorders as well as cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. For the latter, it may help ease nausea and vomiting, helping them to keep food down.

On the negative side, Amnesia Haze's immense THC content can cause dry mouth and bloodshot eyes even in low dosages. Overindulging may cause dizziness, anxiety and paranoia. Beginners and those who are already susceptible are most vulnerable to the latter two, due to the intense metal jog the strain induces. To avoid experiencing an adverse reaction, start with a low dosage and let the high settle before taking another.
