Phantamnesia
Also known as: Phantomnesia, Phantom Amnesia
Phantamnesia Strain Overview
Phantamnesia is a relatively rare cannabis strain that combines genetics from the legendary Amnesia Haze with Phantom OG, resulting in a balanced hybrid with complex effects and aromatic profiles. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to merge the cerebral stimulation of classic sativa-dominant strains with the physical relaxation of indica genetics. While exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding circles, Phantamnesia emerged in the early 2010s as part of a wave of Amnesia Haze crosses that gained popularity among connoisseurs seeking unique terpene profiles and nuanced effects.
The plant typically displays dense, resinous buds with a structure that leans slightly toward its sativa heritage, featuring elongated calyxes and vibrant orange pistils. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to occasional purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The trichome coverage is typically generous, giving the buds a frosty appearance that hints at its potency. The strain's name reflects both its genetic lineage and the reported effects that some users describe as dream-like or hazy.
Phantamnesia is noted for its complex aromatic profile that evolves throughout the curing process. The initial scent often presents with sharp citrus notes that gradually give way to deeper earthy and diesel undertones. The flavor profile similarly develops complexity when consumed, with different terpenes becoming prominent at various temperatures. While not as widely available as some commercial strains, Phantamnesia has maintained a dedicated following among enthusiasts who appreciate its balanced effects and distinctive characteristics.

Phantamnesia Strain Growing Information
Phantamnesia is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to maximize its potential. The flowering time typically ranges from 9 to 11 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant in suitable environments.
The plant exhibits hybrid growth patterns, reaching medium to tall heights (4-6 feet indoors, up to 8 feet outdoors) with good lateral branching. It responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. Phantamnesia prefers stable environmental conditions with moderate humidity (40-50% during flowering) and temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C).
Special considerations include monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plant can be sensitive to overfeeding, particularly during the flowering phase. The strain benefits from a gradual reduction in temperature during the final weeks of flowering to enhance coloration and terpene development. Both indoor and outdoor cultivation are viable, though indoor growing allows better control over environmental factors that influence the final product's quality.
