The Amnesia Haze Automatic is the result of many years breeding. A cross of the Amnesia Haze, bred in The Netherlands in the 1990's by Hy-Pro Seeds. The original Amnesia, aka Amnesia Haze, Champagne Haze, The Bomb, Ultra Haze and many others names is classic Sativa strain, popular everywhere.
Amnesia Haze, bred in the Netherlands in the 1990s by Hy-Pro Seeds under the name “Amnesia”, goes by many other monikers. Whether you know her as the original Amnesia, Amnesia Haze, Champagne Haze, The Bomb, Ultra Haze, or by another name entirely—one thing everyone can agree on is the sheer potency of this sativa-dominant strain.
The biggest downside of sativas like Amnesia is that they can take quite a while to flower. 11-12 weeks is the average, but some phenotypes have been known to take a whopping 20 weeks to finish bloom! This is simply too long for most home-growers. Furthermore, she can grow quite tall; this is another issue that indoor growers, in particular, aren’t able to accommodate.
In comes Amnesia Haze Automatic to solve these problems. Offering the same euphoric high and spicy, sweet taste as the original Amnesia, but with a much-reduced grow time and a smaller height, this auto strain can be grown by novice and experienced cultivators alike.
Indoors, she will take around 80–85 days to mature from seed to bud. In this time, she can grow quite large for an auto, reaching heights between 50–100cm. This is a clear indication of her sativa genetics—tall plants, large, thin leaves, and long buds.
Much like the original Amnesia, Amnesia Haze Automatic grows vigorously and offers generous yields of hazey, high-quality flowers. Producing up to 180g/plant outside and 400g/m² indoors, she is certainly on the more productive end of the spectrum for an auto. She likes to be fed well, but be careful not to overfeed her as Haze varieties are generally sensitive to nutrients.
Amnesia Haze Automatic’s long, foxtail-like buds waft an earthy and citrusy aroma that only improves once buds are cured. All in all, she has the classic Amnesia aroma, flavor, and effect, but is much more realistic to grow for the average home-cultivator.

Strain FAQ
What difficulties are common with Amnesia Haze?
Amnesia Haze is said to require a Mediterranean environment and careful monitoring for pests and moulds. Hard work is reportedly a necessity but is well rewarded.
Does timing alter their musky scent?
Absolutely! Harvest timing is said to greatly affect how musky a strain smells. As the plant ages, terpene composition alters, deepening those musky, earthy scents.
Can Sativa-dominant strains have high CBD?
Yes! Sativas are known for their THC and uplifting effects, but more and more Sativa dominant strains are being cultivated for their CBD content. These strains seek to produce calm and focus without a THC high.
How have Central Asian strains acclimated to high altitude?
These strains, from Afghanistan's highlands and Kazakhstan's steppes, can withstand cold winters and hot days. This makes them adaptable to various different climates.
Can hybrids highlight uncommon cannabinoids?
Hybrids can be produced to raise CBG or THCV levels for distinct effects and medical purposes. Cannabis' complicated chemistry is being more understood and appreciated with this concentration on uncommon cannabinoids becoming more common.
