AK 47 is a
strain of
Cannabis, and placed 2nd at the 2003
Cannabis Cup in the Indica
Cup category. AK 47 is a sativa-indica cross, and is noted for an
incredibly pungent odor, and a magnificently powerful effect. It is
popular among consumers, but has seen limited production due to a
lack of
density, and the
difficulty that this presents for commercial production. Although
it may be called
Special K in some circles, this can cause
confusion, as the term also refers to
Ketamine. AK 47 was presumably named after a
world-famous
assault rifle, the
AK-47. It has also been suggested that the name may
have a second meaning related to Afghani Kush, and a 47 day
flowering period. Genetics: mostly sativa (see also:
cannabis sativa).
Indoor clone grow time: 5–10 days. Flowering time: 53–63 days.
Yield per m2 (indoors): 350-500 grams. Harvest time (outdoors):
15-31 October.
