AK-47

AK-47 was first bred by Serious Seeds in 1992 from a complex cross of Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghani landraces. Despite its aggressive name, this strain is known for delivering a calm, steady, and remarkably long-lasting high. It has won multiple Cannabis Cup awards across several categories and remains one of the most consistently reliable medical strains available globally.

Long-Lasting Relief

AK-47's most distinguished therapeutic characteristic is the duration of its effects. While many strains peak within 30 minutes and fade within 2 hours, AK-47's effects persist for 3-4 hours — reducing the need for frequent re-dosing and providing more consistent symptom management throughout the day. For patients managing chronic conditions who tire of watching the clock between doses, AK-47 offers genuine convenience.

Balanced Mood & Pain Management

The sativa-dominant genetics produce alert, uplifting cerebral effects while the Afghani indica influence adds enough body relaxation to manage physical pain. This balanced profile makes AK-47 suitable for patients with co-occurring conditions — such as depression combined with chronic pain, or anxiety alongside fibromyalgia — where both mental and physical symptoms require simultaneous treatment.

The relatively stable and predictable effects also make AK-47 a favourite among patients who are cautious about cannabis. The onset is gradual rather than sudden, the peak is sustained rather than overwhelming, and the comedown is gentle rather than abrupt.

Sour Earthy Character

AK-47's flavour is complex — sour and earthy on first inhale, with notes of sandalwood, floral sweetness, and subtle musk on the exhale. The aroma is pungent and distinctive, reflecting the diverse landrace genetics. When vaporised at 180°C, the full terpene spectrum unfolds beautifully.
