AK-48 is a reinforced iteration of the infamous AK-47 strain, a mix of mostly Sativa landrace strains from Colombia, Mexico, Thailand, and Afghanistan (the Indica in the mix) created by Nirvana Seeds While the plant curiously lacks a strong odor during its growth phase, finished buds have a floral, citrus scent and matching flavor.
Lab tests clock its potency at more than 20% THC, according to Amsterdam Seed Center.
The breeder touts AK-48 as a very fast grower, ready for harvest in as little as seven weeks —however, Nirvana Seeds also recommends a longer vegetative period to develop the taste. The seed bank says this cultivar is extremely forgiving, making it a great choice for new or experimental growers.
AK-48 produces short plants that develop conical deep green colas with pale green buds and few yellow-orange pistils. Breeder and seed bank both confirm AK-48 produces very high yields.
