Amnesia Lemon

Iconic strains often pave the way for the next generation of hybrids, opening up exciting possibilities for the entire cannabis industry and culture. Amnesia Lemon is a remarkable example of this trend. She is the embodiment of compactness, rapid maturation, and generous yields – all courtesy of KADAMA's team of dedicated breeders. Winner of numerous international cups and competitions, Amnesia Lemon can now become a valuable piece of your grower's collection!

History and Characteristics

Amnesia Lemon is a photoperiod feminized sativa-dominant (60/40) strain. It is the result of a successful collaboration between KADAMA and American and European breeders. It inherits its genetic lineage from the ultra-successful Amnesia Haze and the original Lemon Skunk phenotype. Along with its obvious potency, this hybrid has acquired an incredibly explosive aroma and stunning effects.

The dominance of sativa typically means a long wait for harvest, but not in this case. Amnesia Lemon typically takes around 5-6 weeks to complete the vegetative stage, followed by another 8-10 weeks of flowering before you can start harvesting. The plant's structure shows a robust central cola with plenty of lateral branching and an impressive mass of incredibly fragrant, dense, and elongated buds. Maintaining optimal microclimate parameters, paying due attention to the plant, and providing sufficient care will reward the grower with a guaranteed 550 g (19 oz) of delicious buds per square meter indoors. Outdoors, a single plant can yield about 600 g (21 oz) by early October.

Flavor and Aroma

Refreshing citrus and pungent skunk aromas emerge during the flowering stage and become even more pronounced after proper drying and curing. When consumed, this highly aromatic composition is complemented by a classic Haze bouquet of lemon, lime, spice, creamy toffee, dank skunk, frankincense, sandalwood, and hashish, with a signature earthiness highlighting the presence of Afghan indica.

Recreational and Medicinal Use

With its diverse terpene profile and modest 1% CBD content, Amnesia Lemon holds great therapeutic promise. It effectively addresses conditions like stress, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and muscle spasms, and provides both anti-inflammatory and analgesic relief.

High THC content of over 20% and the predominance of sativa genetics in Amnesia Lemon's profile produce a powerful cerebral high. Experienced users report an influx of energy and a gentle buzz that spreads through the body as a wave of pleasant warmth and relaxation. Amnesia Lemon provides a strong sense of euphoria and lulls the body into a serene and sound sleep. It's the perfect strain for unwinding after a hard day's work, or as a catalyst for creative ideas.

Cultivation

Amnesia Lemon is adaptable and easy to care for, making it an excellent choice for novice growers. The hybrid performs equally well in both indoor and outdoor conditions. Meet the plant's minimal requirements for microclimate, provide full-spectrum LED lighting, organic soil in at least 20-liter (5 gal) pots, pH/ppm monitoring, and the strain will reward you with a bountiful harvest of flavorful buds. Due to the presence of Skunk genetics, it is strongly recommended to install a good carbon filter to eliminate an intense odor during flowering.

Optimal outdoor growing conditions include plenty of sunlight and low humidity. The relatively short stature of Amnesia Lemon plants lends itself to natural discretion. They are relatively easy to protect from prying eyes; just choose a secluded spot that is exposed to sunlight and surrounded by natural hedges to protect them from potential gusts of wind.

FAQ

What is the height of this strain?

Both indoors and outdoors, the versatile Amnesia Lemon does not exceed 100-110 cm (39-43 inches).

How susceptible is the strain to mold?

The hybrid's genetic resistance to mold does not apply to high humidity during flowering. Keep this in mind, and provide adequate ventilation and airflow with oscillating fans.

What kind of training techniques are good for Amnesia Lemon?

The strain responds favorably to all training techniques. However, KADAMA experts recommend topping, FIM, LST, and defoliation during the vegetative stage, as well as SoG or ScrOG for optimal light distribution and increased yields.
