How to Grow Amnesia FV CBD
Amnesia FV CBD, also written Amnesia Fast Version CBD, is a fast-flowering CBD autoflower that brings the bright, uplifting character of Amnesia to a low-THC, high-CBD plant. It is bred to lead with CBD rather than THC, pairing a mellow 8–10% CBD with a low 6–8% THC, and it runs from seed to harvest in just 8–10 weeks.
It comes from crossing Soma’s Amnesia with a Secret Hybrid, which keeps the citrus-forward, sativa-leaning feel of Amnesia while shifting the balance firmly toward CBD. At 70% sativa it stays clear and energetic in character, and as an autoflower it blooms on age rather than on any change in the light.

Climate and Where to Grow It
Amnesia FV CBD likes warm, sunny conditions with good light. Indoors, keep daytime temperatures between 70–80°F (21–27°C) and let the nights run about 5°F cooler to mimic natural swings, which keeps the plant healthy and helps it finish cleanly.
Humidity matters through the cycle. Hold it at 60–65% during vegetative growth, then bring it down to 40–50% once the plant moves into flower, which protects the buds from mould and helps concentrate the terpenes. Strong, steady airflow around the plant does the rest.
Outdoors, pick a sunny, sheltered spot with at least six hours of direct light, enrich the soil with compost or worm castings, and protect the plants from strong winds. In cooler regions a simple greenhouse or hoop house extends the season and keeps conditions steady for its compact 1.5 m frame.
Autoflower Growing Basics
With a CBD autoflower like this, the key rule is that you do not switch the light schedule to trigger flowering. Amnesia FV CBD begins to bloom on its own at around weeks 4–5, so give it a long day of 18–20 hours of light from seedling right through to harvest.
Start the seed directly in its final pot, because autos run on a fixed internal clock and dislike transplanting, and a short-cycle plant cannot make up growth lost to a mid-run move. Keep training light: apply low-stress training in weeks 2–3 to spread the canopy and open up the lower bud sites, and prune a few lower leaves to steer energy to the top. That gentle touch is all an auto this size needs.
Feeding Schedule (EC Guide)
Autoflowers are light feeders, so start low and build up only as the plant asks. The EC values below track the life-cycle stages rather than a separate veg-and-bloom switch, which keeps feeding simple across the short run.
| Stage | EC (mS/cm) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Seedling | 0.4–0.6 | Very light feed, focus on healthy root growth |
| Vegetative growth | 0.8–1.2 | Mild nitrogen-rich feed (N-P-K around 3-1-2) |
| Early flower | 1.2–1.4 | Shift toward bloom nutrients (P and K) |
| Full flower | 1.4–1.6 | Peak bloom feed while buds swell |
| Flush | 0.0–0.4 | Plain water for the final 1–2 weeks |
Life Cycle and Harvest
The full life cycle runs 8–10 weeks from seed to harvest. As an autoflower you harvest when the plant is ready rather than on a fixed date, so let the trichomes guide you rather than counting from a light change.
Expect vegetative growth in the first weeks, the automatic switch to flower around weeks 4–5, then bud stacking and resin through to the finish. Its 70% sativa lean gives it an airy, resinous structure with a strong citrus aroma. Harvest when 70–80% of the trichomes are cloudy with a few amber for the fullest CBD expression, and give the plant a gentle plain-water flush in the final week to clean up the flavour.
Drying and Curing
Hang the trimmed branches upside down in a dark, ventilated room at 60–70°F (15–21°C) and around 50% humidity, rotating them every few days for an even dry over 7–10 days. A slow, steady dry stops the dense buds staying damp in the middle while the outside dries.
Then jar the buds loosely in glass, no more than three-quarters full, burping daily for the first week and then weekly for two to four weeks. Humidity packs at 60–62% help lock in the aroma, and a proper cure brings the citrus-floral sweetness forward and smooths out a CBD-rich smoke.
What to Do With Your Trim
Don’t bin the sugar leaves you remove while manicuring. Amnesia FV CBD is a resinous plant, so the trim is great for dry sift, bubble hash or rosin, giving you a bonus run of CBD-rich concentrate from material most growers throw away.
Flavor and Terpenes
Amnesia FV CBD tastes citrus, floral and sweet, a bright and lively profile that carries the zest of its Amnesia heritage. The citrus leads, lifted by a soft floral note and rounded off with a gentle sweetness.
With several terpenes in play, six lead the character: limonene (the clear citrus brightness), terpinolene (fresh, fruity and floral), myrcene (an earthy, herbal base), caryophyllene (peppery, spicy warmth), pinene (a clean, resinous pine edge) and linalool (soft floral). Behind them sit ocimene and carene, rounding out the citrus-floral profile without any added flavouring.
CBD Content and Effects
This is a CBD-first strain, bred to lead with CBD rather than THC. It carries a medium 8–10% CBD against a low 6–8% THC, so the balance sits firmly on the CBD side and the psychoactive punch stays very gentle. That makes it a good fit for growers who want the flavour and plant of Amnesia with far less of the high.
The reported effects are creative, euphoric and uplifted: a bright, clear-headed and sociable character that reflects the sativa-leaning genetics and the CBD-forward make-up. It is an easygoing, daytime-friendly profile, and you can explore more options like it across our wider CBD seed range.
Common Problems and Pro Tips
Amnesia FV CBD is an easy, forgiving grow, but it is a CBD autoflower with a sativa stretch, so timing and training matter.
- Train gently, not hard: as an autoflower it will not recover from heavy topping, so use low-stress bending while it is young and start it in its final pot.
- Give it headroom: as a 70% sativa it reaches up after it starts to flower, so leave vertical space indoors and spread the branches so the lower buds get light.
- Harvest on time for the CBD: the value here is the CBD lead over a low THC, so follow the 8 to 10 week window and the trichomes rather than letting it over-ripen.
Expert tip: its bright citrus and floral terpenes are delicate. Dry slowly in a cool, dark room and cure in jars so that fresh Amnesia zest holds up.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Amnesia FV CBD high in CBD or THC?
It is bred to lead with CBD. It carries a medium 8 to 10% CBD against a low 6 to 8% THC, so the balance sits firmly on the CBD side with only a gentle, barely noticeable psychoactive effect. That makes it a good pick if you want the calming side without a strong high.
Is Amnesia FV CBD an autoflower?
Yes. It is a fast-flowering CBD autoflower, so it blooms on age rather than on a light change and there is no 12/12 flip to time. It runs from seed to harvest in about 8 to 10 weeks, which keeps the grow short and simple from start to finish.
Do I need to change the light cycle?
No. Keep it on a long day of 18 to 20 hours of light from seedling right through to harvest. It starts flowering on its own at around weeks four to five, so there is no light-cycle flip. A steady, generous schedule gives it the most energy to build buds.
Is Amnesia FV CBD indica or sativa?
It is sativa-dominant, at 70% sativa and 30% indica, so the character is bright, clear and uplifting rather than sedating. That sativa lean also shapes the plant, which stretches and grows a more open structure, so give it some headroom and keep the lower buds well lit.
What does Amnesia FV CBD taste like?
Expect a citrus, floral and sweet flavour with the classic Amnesia zest. That profile comes from its limonene, terpinolene, myrcene and caryophyllene. Those bright terpenes are volatile, so dry slowly in a cool, dark room and cure in jars for a couple of weeks to keep the aroma fresh.
How much does Amnesia FV CBD yield?
It is a strong producer for a CBD auto. Indoors you can expect 1.47 to 1.82 oz/ft² (450 to 550 g/m²), and a single outdoor plant brings in around 14 to 15 oz (400 to 450 g) in a good season. An open canopy and steady light help it reach the top of that range.
