Made famous around the world after placing 2nd at the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2012 for Best Sativa, Sour Amnesia is the byproduct of crossing two incredible strains. HortiLab Seeds, based in Amsterdam, bred Sour Diesel with Amnesia and created a bud that offers incredible daytime effects along with pungent flavors and aromas.

Potency can vary with this strain, and while some have found her THC to be as low as 15%, more often than not you’ll see her near the 22% range. Nugs of this strain are very pretty with a lime green base, hints of pink and purple, and a thin layer of fine white trichomes. If you require discretion when you smoke, this bud isn’t for you, as the room will fill with a blend of sour earth, citrus, and diesel. Her flavors are a little more gentle, yet feature a mixture of sour notes along with earth, diesel, and a touch of flowers.

Once you get past her intense sensory experience, Sour Amnesia takes you on a wild ride in the best way possible. Users will instantly notice a cerebral lift that’s downright euphoric, and this level of happiness carries its way over into everything you do. Focus and creativity will peak and for many make this strain a must-have when tackling a busy workday. However, Sour Amnesia has also been known to make people rather social, so if you want to stay on task, be mindful of how much of a chatterbox you are.

Nearly any ailment that would prevent you from having a happy and productive day can be addressed with a few hits of Sour Amnesia. Individuals who struggle with depression and anxiety, especially those who find their day to day lives are affected by it, will be able to function more normally, and issues of pain, loss of appetite, and more often fall by the wayside. Ultimately, while Sour Amnesia isn’t guaranteed to cure medical issues, she can certainly help.

Home cultivators who are just cutting their teeth would be wise to plant Sour Amnesia in their garden, just as long as they can provide a sunny and dry climate. This strain is highly resistant to pests and diseases, yet if you’re concerned about her ability to thrive, indoor growth is also fine. Allow her between 8 and 9 weeks to mature and your yield will be quite impressive.

Some note that this strain does actually impart a little bit of a forgetful mind, but overall, Sour Amnesia is an incredible tool to help users improve their mood and increase productivity at the same time. We’d recommend giving this strain a try during the weekend as well to see if she enhances your social gatherings or even assists you in completing that long-overdue household project.
