Forget your troubles with this Haze sprinkled with exotic genetics
Amnesia Haze is a hybrid of the illustrious Haze and Afghani with landraces from Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Jamaica, and Hawaii. The result of this complex genetic mix is a two-time Cannabis Cup-winning Sativa that has become one of the most sought-after strains in cannabis consumption, cultivation, and breeding worldwide.
The sweet citrus aroma and taste of Amnesia Haze come with a hint of earthiness. While her terpene profile is genuinely unlike any other, the weed’s undeniable popularity is primarily due to her potent cerebral effects. The strain’s THC load averaging about 21% produces a euphoric, energizing, and giggly high that will surely make you forget your troubles. It’s best avoided when working on tasks that require full focus, but if you need to get your creative juices flowing, then you’ve got the right bud. It also serves as an excellent social lubricant and a daytime therapeutic weed for relieving stress, fatigue, and chronic pain.
Amnesia Haze sets a higher standard in anything cannabis-related. Sadly, this strain is not suitable for beginners as she is quite fussy and requires more care and attention. Whether regular, feminized, or autoflowering, her seeds are also typically priced higher than others. Rest assured, though, that if you have skilled gardening hands and overflowing patience, the harvest from this beauty will be well worth it.

Whether photoperiod or autoflower, Amnesia Haze is best grown indoors as she’s quite the pest favorite. Two weeks or a couple of days before harvest, flushing out the build-up of salt and excess minerals will eliminate traces of chemical taste in the buds. The flowers are fully flourished and at their most potent once most trichomes have gone cloudy and the light-colored pistils have turned burnt orange.
Amnesia Haze, as with most Haze varieties, is notoriously tall, lanky, and long-flowering. Her regular and feminized seeds are suitable for growers who can provide the patience, space, skills, and resources this strain needs. Topping the plant while she’s still vegetating encourages her to develop a broad structure. If paired with the Screen of Green (ScrOG) technique, it would keep the cannabis at the desired height, support the branches, and increase yields. Other methods that growers may employ to have this Sativa bush out and remain short are pruning, pinching, and low-stress training (LST).
If you’re not scrogging, setting up a trellis or attaching the branches to stakes will help as her colas may become too heavy. You may also add small quantities of silica in the nutrient solution throughout her entire life cycle to strengthen her limbs. A foliar spray with compost tea also helps this plant boost her immune system and fend off infections and pests.
Amnesia Haze is best cultivated in a climate-controlled environment. To keep her around 170 cm tall or smaller, start the 12/12 cycle once she reaches around 30 to 60 cm. The ideal temperature for this cannabis is between 70 and 85°F (21 to 29°C). Her buds are ripe for plucking after 12 to 13 weeks of flowering, providing up to grams per square meter.
Places with a warm enough fall are suitable for Amnesia Haze’s long fruiting period, which is likely to last up to late October in the northern hemisphere. She can grow up to 300 cm tall outdoors and share 700 grams of fresh buds per plant.
Unlike her photoperiod sisters, Amnesia Haze Autoflower flourishes even when showered with minimal care and attention. She goes from seed to harvest in 12 to 13 weeks and only grows around 66 cm tall. Growers can collect 200 grams for every sun-grown plant from April to October in the northern hemisphere. The same amount can be achieved per square meter of indoor space in a Sea of Green (SOG) setup. Because of this strain’s swift lifecycle, you can grow in successive batches to increase your accumulated harvest.
How to provide stem and branch support for my Amnesia Haze?
Photoperiod Amnesia Haze plants from regular and feminized seeds grow tall and thin, with long, branchy stems. Their branches are often weighed down by the heavy buds they produce. For this reason, it is vital to provide support for the stems of your cannabis plants. Otherwise, they may break under the weight of the buds, causing the plant to produce fewer flowers.
There are various ways to provide stem support for your cannabis plants. The most common method is to use stakes or trellises. Stakes are thin, sturdy rods driven into the ground around your plants. Trellises are larger structures that can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, metal, or plastic. They can be placed against a wall or fence or freestanding in the garden. Whichever method you choose, make sure that the support is firmly in place before you begin training your plants.
To train your plants, you will need to bend and tie their stems to the support structure. Start by bending the main stem down to the desired height. Then, take smaller side branches and bend them around the main stem, tying them in place with twine or zip ties. Be careful not to damage the branches.
I don’t have much space. How can I keep Amnesia Haze small?
When it comes to cannabis home-growing, taller isn’t always better. Taller plants like Amnesia Haze simply take up too much space and can be challenging to manage for many growers. Fortunately, you can do a few things to keep your tall cannabis strains from getting out of control. One way to do this is by topping or training your plants. This involves trimming the main stem to encourage the growth of lateral branches. By doing this, you can effectively “cap” the height of your plant, redirecting its energy into producing more buds instead of continuing to grow taller. Another option is to use a low-stress training technique like bending or cupping. These techniques involve gently bending the stems of your plants to encourage them to grow horizontally. By using one or both of these techniques, you can keep your cannabis plants short and compact, making them easier to manage and increasing your overall yield. Using smaller than usual pots also forces cannabis plants to stay of modest size by restricting root growth. If you prefer to avoid performing these height-limiting techniques, the autoflowering Amnesia Haze is an excellent option. You may also consider going for naturally smaller marijuana varieties.
