AK-47 Seeds

Genetics & effects

AK-47 feminised is a 65% sativa and 35% indica hybrid drawing on Colombian, Mexican, Thai and Afghan landrace-derived genetics. Its balanced lineage supports vigorous growth, productive branching and substantial flower development, making it best suited to growers with intermediate experience.

Flowers may express an earthy and woody foundation layered with pungent, sour and sweet notes. Fruity, berry-like accents can become more noticeable as plants mature. Myrcene, caryophyllene and pinene are prominent in the expected terpene profile, although aroma, flavour and colour can vary with phenotype and growing conditions.

THC potential is listed at 14–19%, with CBD generally between 0% and 0.5%. Individual experiences are subjective, but some adults describe AK-47 as initially euphoric, uplifting, creative or focused, followed by a more relaxed sensation. Personal experience can differ considerably.

Growing in Australia

AK-47 can adapt to hot, dry and temperate Australian conditions. Its moderate flowering time makes it versatile, but careful climate planning remains important. Good airflow, measured watering and regular canopy checks can reduce the risk of mould or humidity-related issues, especially in coastal or changeable regions.

For outdoor growing, spring planting generally falls between September and November. Local temperature, rainfall and daylight patterns should guide the final timing. In warmer areas, afternoon shade may help during intense heat, while temperate locations benefit from a position receiving consistent direct light.

Indoor

Indoors, AK-47 may reach up to 140 cm. Training and an even canopy can make its stretch easier to manage while allowing light to reach developing sites. Its branching structure responds well to gentle low-stress shaping and selective pruning before flowering.

• Flowering time: approximately 8–9 weeks
• Indoor height: up to 140 cm
• Indoor yield: up to 550 g/m²
• Experience level: intermediate

Keep air moving through and above the canopy, and avoid large swings in temperature or humidity. The pungent aroma may become pronounced late in flowering. Yield figures are potential outcomes rather than assured results.

Outdoor

Outdoors, plants may reach up to 170 cm and can produce up to 800 g per plant under favourable conditions. Choose a sunny position with freely draining soil and enough space for lateral branching. Supports may be useful as flowers gain weight.

In humid districts, open spacing and timely removal of damaged foliage can reduce the risk of mould. In hot, dry districts, mulch and consistent irrigation can help maintain steadier root-zone conditions without leaving soil saturated.

Harvest

Australian outdoor harvest commonly falls between March and May, depending on planting time, latitude, phenotype and seasonal weather. Assess flower maturity directly rather than relying only on the calendar. Indoor plants are generally ready after 8–9 weeks of flowering.

Harvest in dry conditions where possible, handle flowers gently and dry them slowly in a dark, ventilated area. Final yield, aroma, cannabinoid content and finish will vary with environment and cultivation choices. AK-47 is presented in the Outback Seed Bank catalogue as a feminised option for growers seeking a productive, sativa-leaning classic.
