How to Germinate OG Kush x Amnesia Seeds

A big harvest starts at germination. The paper towel method is hard to beat: fold the OG Kush x Amnesia seeds inside two damp sheets, slide them between two plates, and keep them somewhere dark at 70 to 79°F. A taproot usually appears in two to five days.

Once the taproot is a few millimeters long, move each seed root-down about 1 cm deep into a small pot of light, airy medium. Keep it lightly moist rather than soaked, hold humidity around 65 to 70%, and give soft light while the first true leaves open. Its sativa vigor makes for a fast, strong seedling.

Starter tips

  • Use plain, lightly pH-balanced water (pH 5.5 to 6.5) for the first week.
  • Keep seedlings warm and humid, but never waterlogged.
  • Hold off on nutrients until the second set of serrated leaves appears.

Growing OG Kush x Amnesia in the Vegetative Stage

OG Kush x Amnesia likes a temperate climate and, as a 60% sativa, it grows into a tall, lanky plant that can reach 2 m if left unchecked. Keep it on 18 hours of light a day, aim for day temperatures of 68 to 79°F, and hold humidity around 50 to 60%. Its sativa frame grows fast, so plan your space early.

This is the stage to take control of its height. Topping early and using low-stress training to bend the main stem keeps the canopy even and manageable, which is important for such a tall plant, and it spreads the light to lift that high yield. Give it room so air moves freely through the open structure.

Its tall, vigorous build and October finish make it a strong outdoor plant across much of the US, where it has room to stretch:

  • Southern California and the Southwest: the long, warm season suits its sativa stretch and 8 to 10 week bloom, letting it reach its full 2 m height and heavy yield.
  • Pacific Northwest and cooler states: it finishes before the wet autumn, but its size means you want space and support for the branches.
  • Height-restricted grows: wherever headroom is tight, train it hard in veg or it will outgrow the space.

Flowering and Buds of OG Kush x Amnesia

Indoors, flip OG Kush x Amnesia to a 12/12 light cycle to trigger flowering, which runs 8 to 10 weeks. Outdoors it ripens through October. As a sativa-dominant plant it stretches hard after the flip, often doubling in height, then forms long, resinous, citrus-scented colas.

Through bloom, drop humidity to 40 to 45% and keep air moving so the long flowers do not trap moisture. The buds build a bright citrus and lemon aroma over a piney, woody base, pulling from both the OG Kush and Amnesia sides.

At 17 to 20% THC it sits in the medium range, so the effect is balanced, a creative, energetic and euphoric lift that stays clear-headed rather than heavy.

Common Problems and Pro Tips

OG Kush x Amnesia is beginner-friendly, but its height and the long sativa flowering point to a few things worth watching.

  • Control the height: at up to 2 m it can outgrow a tent fast, so top and train early, especially indoors.
  • Support the long colas: its airy sativa buds sit on tall, slender branches, so stake or net them before they bend under weight.
  • Patience in bloom: the 8 to 10 week sativa flowering is on the longer side, so do not rush the harvest.

Expert tip: this tall sativa rewards a longer veg only if you can manage the stretch, so if space is tight, flip earlier and lean on training. Ease off nitrogen once the buds set, keep airflow strong around the long colas, and cure slowly to protect the bright citrus-lemon aroma.

Aroma, Flavor and Effects

The nose is bright and zesty: sharp citrus and lemon up front, the Amnesia signature, over a piney, woody base from the OG Kush side. It is fresh and energizing rather than sweet, and it sharpens as the buds cure.

The flavor follows the nose: citrus and lemon with a clean pine and woody finish. On the effect side it is creative, energetic and euphoric, a bright, uplifting headspace true to its sativa lean. Because THC runs a moderate 17 to 20%, it stays clear-headed and approachable.

Dominant terpenes

OG Kush x Amnesia carries a deep, complex terpene profile. The most influential are Myrcene, Caryophyllene, Limonene, Pinene, Humulene and Linalool: Myrcene lays down the earthy base, Caryophyllene and Humulene bring a spicy, woody depth, Limonene the bright citrus-lemon lift, Pinene the fresh pine note, and Linalool a soft floral edge. Behind them sits a broad supporting cast, including Terpinolene, Terpineol, Cedrene, Borneol, Camphene, Farnesene and more, which rounds out its zesty, piney character.

Nutrient Schedule

Treat the figures below as a starting map, not a rulebook. OG Kush x Amnesia is a vigorous, high-yielding feeder, so read the plant first: tip burn means back off, while pale, slow growth means it wants a little more. All values use EC.

StageEC
Seedling0.4–0.6
Growth0.8–1.2
Early flower1.2–1.4
Full flower1.4–1.6
Flush0.0–0.4

Keep the pH around 6.0 to 6.5 in soil and 5.5 to 6.0 in hydro so the roots can actually take up what you feed.

What to Do With Your Trim: Extracts and Hash

OG Kush x Amnesia builds a good coat of resin from both parents, so its citrusy trim is worth keeping. The sugar leaves you take off while manicuring carry trichomes and suit Ice Water Hash, where cold water and agitation separate the resin heads into a clean, solventless concentrate. Pressing that hash into rosin keeps the citrus-lemon flavor intact, or you can run a solvent extraction if that is your setup. The bare stems will not extract, but chopped and composted they feed organic matter back into the soil for your next grow.

Harvesting, Drying and Curing OG Kush x Amnesia

Timing the harvest comes down to the trichomes. Grab a loupe and watch the heads turn from clear to milky white; a scattering of amber signals peak ripeness. Indoors this lands 8 to 10 weeks after the flip, and outdoors the plants are ready through October.

After the cut, hang the branches in a dark room at 59 to 68°F with humidity near 50% and gentle air movement. Slow beats fast: drying over 10 to 14 days protects the citrus, lemon and pine aromas that define this strain. When the small stems snap instead of bending, move the buds into jars.

Cure in sealed glass, opening the jars daily for the first week to let moisture escape, then easing off as the aroma deepens. Two to four weeks of patience here is where the bright citrus-lemon character and piney finish really come forward, and it is the step most first-time growers rush.
