When Barney’s Farm unveiled Amnesia Haze Auto, it was hailed as one of their most thrilling releases in recent memory. This excitement was understandable.
Fans of the award-winning Amnesia Haze had long yearned for a speedier auto version.
The original Amnesia Haze genetics, gifted to Barney’s Farm Lab by Soma in the early 2000s, had previously clinched the High Times Cannabis Cup 2004 under Barney’s Breakfast Bar.
This strain boasts genes from Southeast Asian landraces (Thai, Cambodian, Laotian), Jamaican Haze, and Afghani/Hawaiian.
By crossing it with Barney’s renowned Super Auto #1, Amnesia Haze morphed into an 80% sativa autoflowering variant.
In cultivation, Amnesia Haze Auto proudly displays its Haze lineage. Typically reaching heights of one metre indoors and 1.5 metres outdoors, it can yield a staggering 600 grams per square metre in just 65 to 70 days.
Its large, dense buds exude the signature Amnesia Haze aroma: a blend of earthy, citrusy, and pine notes.
The Vegetative Stage: Amnesia Haze Auto Hits the Gas
Ellis D., an autoflowering enthusiast, was eager to test this strain. The seed germinated swiftly, and the plant exhibited rapid vegetative growth, quickly sprouting lateral branches. The initial leaves were broader than expected for a sativa-dominant strain, but they slimmed down with each new set.
The Flowering Stage: A Floral Rocket Launch
At 2.5 weeks, the 28 cm tall plant began pre-flowering. Its flowering was equally rapid, soon boasting elongated floral structures with a distinct Haze appearance.
The central bud grew impressively large, and by day 60, Ellis D. was in awe of its size and density. By day 68, the majority of the flower hairs had reddened, signaling maturity. The final height? An impressive 92 cm.
The Harvest: A Haze Masterpiece
Ellis D.’s optimism about the yield was justified when he harvested 81 grams of Haze-rich buds. The main bud alone weighed 28 grams. Dried and cured, the buds exuded a tantalizing aroma reminiscent of dark chocolate, pine, and lemon.
The Tasting Session: A Haze Euphoria
Ellis D.’s first sampling session with Amnesia Haze Auto was a revelation. The taste was pure Haze, without any hint of the typical autoflowering bitterness.
The effect was equally impressive, providing over 1.5 hours of invigorating sativa energy.
Ellis D.’s Verdict: A Flawless Autoflowering Adaptation
“Barney’s Farm has masterfully accelerated Amnesia Haze with this impeccable autoflowering adaptation. Both Haze lovers and autoflowering enthusiasts will find immense joy in this strain. It’s a stellar Barney’s Farm experience from seed to smoke!”
