AK-47 Reg

AK-47 is one of the most famous strains in world breeding, and Cartel Seeds' regular version keeps the classic genetic foundation intact. Four lines - Colombian, Mexican, Thai and Afghan - give the plant the same character that made this strain famous decades ago.

Regular seed means a natural ratio of female and male plants. For those who work with their own selection or want to preserve genetics through pollen, this is fundamentally important. It is the regular format that allows you to obtain stable seed offspring and carry out crossings.

Genetics and origin

AK-47 is based on a combination of four geographically different lines. The Colombian and Mexican components give a sativa openness and long vegetative potential. The Thai line adds a specific lightness and height. The Afghan base is responsible for the density of the structure and shortening the flowering cycle to an acceptable 8-9 weeks.

It is the Afghan component that makes AK-47 suitable for temperate climates - without it, pure sativa lines from Colombia or Thailand would flower much longer.

Aroma and flavor profile of the variety

The AK-47 profile is complex and well-recognized. An earthy base is combined with floral notes and a light sweetness. Sandalwood provides depth and woody warmth. Citrus accents refresh the overall picture, and a light smoky aftertaste completes the profile and makes it distinctive.

This is not a monotonous aroma - it unfolds gradually and changes depending on the stage of development of the plant.

Growth characteristics

Plants of medium height - not dwarf, but not overly elongated. This habit is convenient both in closed spaces with sufficient ceiling height, and outdoors in warm climates.

• Type: regular seed
• Genetics: Colombian, Mexican, Thai, Afghan
• Flowering period: 8-9 weeks
• Plant height: medium

A flowering cycle of 8-9 weeks is standard for Afghan hybrids, allowing the season to be completed before the first autumn frosts when grown outdoors in central and southern regions of Ukraine.

Why regular format and not feminized?

Regular seeds are chosen for a specific purpose. Firstly, to preserve genetics: male plants are needed for pollen collection and further selection. Secondly, some growers believe that regular plants develop more naturally and are more resistant to stress compared to feminized lines.

If the goal is to have the maximum number of female plants without dealing with males, it is worth considering a feminized version of the variety. If genetic work or a principled approach to natural reproduction is important, the regular format of AK-47 from Cartel Seeds is suitable for this.

Cartel Seeds and this strain

Cartel Seeds recreates classic genetics in stable seeds. AK-47 Reg is not a rebranded analogue, but a work with the original lines that formed the reputation of the variety. The seeds are packaged and labeled according to the brand's standards.
