Strain Description

Genetics:

The genetics of the AK-47 is the result of a complete and complex work of selection and then crossing between the most known landraces from around the world: Colombian, Mexican, Thai & Afghan.

Taste and Aroma: 

The AK-47 weed is definitely worth a detour! Its base tone of spicy, but also sweet citrus from the famous AK-47 is instantly noticeable! And to top it off, the terpene-rich profile has incredible gustatory flavors! We don't have to convince growers who have known the classic taste of AK-47 for years.

Cultivation of AK-47 seeds:

This AK-47 variety, which can be described as "strong" both for its genetics and its terpene potency, can be grown indoors as well as outdoors. Its average height makes it preferable to keep the apex, which will form a large central bud. Its growth is vigorous and takes the shape of a Christmas tree. It doesn't require much attention, which makes it a perfect genetics for beginners.

Simon describes the AK-47 as follows: "This easy-to-grow plant is a living legend and our most popular. Medium-sized, produces good yields quite quickly, producing compact buds, not too leafy, shining with a layer of resin crystals."

The AK-47 has a high calyx/leaf ratio typical of sativa, meaning lots of flowers and only a few leaves. The unique size of the AK calyx tends to be unusually large, resulting in fat clusters grouping together very decoratively and densely, contributing to the trademark appearance of the AK-47. 

Effects:

The strong potency of AK-47 weed and its lasting effect contributes to its reputation! A mentally and physically soothing effect that will delight you during recreational and relaxing moments.

Often nicknamed the “one hit wonder”, a single puff of this electric plant is enough to feel an intense but pleasant high.

In a few numbers:

Flowering period: 53 to 63 days or 8 to 9 weeks 

THC-CBD levels: 20%-1%

Harvest potential: between 350 and 500G/M2

In a few words:

  • The AK-47 alone gathers the main genetic characteristics generally sought after by a grower: good yield and a good smell!
  • It will produce compact buds glittering with trichomes, satisfying for both beginner and experienced green thumbs.
  • It is a mainly sativa cross.
  • In its record, AK47 has no less than 27 Cups including 7 “HT Cannabis Cup”
  • An independent laboratory test showed 21.5% THC in samples from the 1999 Cannabis Cup, the highest of all entries that year. 

Additional Information:

The genetics of AK-47 weed, making it rich in Trichomes, makes it a perfect variety for extractions and ensures a good yield. 

Serious Seeds also worked on a well-known “mostly indica” cross: the White Russian. A cross between an AK-47 and a White Widow.

The AK-47 is the basis of many crosses subsequently made following its success by many breeders, making this variety a genetic pillar such as White Widow and Jack Herer.

A bit of history:

There are a few classic varieties in the world of extra potent marijuana that have been around for a very long time, constantly fascinating growers and smokers with their superb qualities, and having reached legendary status. The AK-47 variety from Serious Seeds is certainly one of these exceptional evergreen strains. For Simon, owner and breeder of Serious Seeds, finding the unique genetic profile of AK-47 was the rare case of a "stroke of luck" that all cannabis seed breeders dream of.

Already in 1992, after testing thousands of experimental plants from different lineages, he finally achieved his goal of creating a high-quality sativa/indica variety with excellent overall properties and a lot of charisma - the legendary AK-47 weed was born.

Great seeds from a great seed bank

The seeds came in neutral packaging and were professionally packaged. Every seed has germinated and they grow very stable and homogeneous. Perfect for indoor cultivation.
If you do everything right and give the girls everything they need, the harvest will win you over not only with its weight, but also with its high and taste.
In addition, the support of Serious Seed is highly recommended. The Serious Seeds team is happy to help and is also competent and personable.

Serious Seeds

I have purchased many seeds from the folks at Serious Seeds. Out of the 40 + seeds I have planted, every one of them sprouted. I just harvested a crop that was comprised of 6 year old Serious seed products I had in the fridge. These were Serious Happiness, Kali Mist, White Russian, and Double Dutch. Every seed I planted germinated. And the crop was fantastic.

I have now planted AK-47 and Chronic, ( new seeds) and Serious Happiness and White Russian ( 6 year old seeds. )

The quality of every plant I grew, was superb. I admit I am partial for Kali Mist notwithstanding she is tall plant which likes living soil making her a challenge for the tent. Excellent pain relief and head high. And of the 40 or more feminized seeds I have planted from this seed producer, and not one was male, not one was hermie, and not one failed to impress me with the high quality.

AK 47 is a much anticipated experience that I have yet to smoke. She was the first to sprout on this crop, and she is the biggest of the bunch.

My seed Stash after planting these 4 plants?

1x Kali Mist ( 6 year old seed)
2 x Seriously Happy ( 6 year old seed)
5 x Chronic ( New seeds first crop)
5 x AK 47 ( New seeds First crop)
6 x Strawberry AKiel ( new seeds untried yet)
1 X White Russian ( 6 year old seeds)
2x Double Dutch (6 year old seeds)

I expect all that I plant will sprout come next spring when I am ready for another crop.

I have no need to look any where else for my seed supplies. These folks are trust worthy, and skilled in the art of breeding seeds.

Customer for life..
