How to Grow AK-47 Seeds to Bud

Germination

One way to germinate AK-47 seeds is to start by placing the seeds between two moist paper towels. Keep the paper towels in a warm, dark place maintaining a temperature between 70-85°F (21-29°C). Within 24-72 hours, the seeds will crack open, and a small taproot will emerge, letting you know it’s ready to be planted.

Another common germination method is soaking the seeds in a glass of water for about 12-24 hours until they sink. Once the seeds begin to open, transfer them to a growing medium of your choice.

Where It Grows Best

AK-47 cannabis seeds grow best in a controlled environment where conditions can be managed. Indoors, growers can control factors like temperature, humidity, and light. AK-47 prefers a warm climate, typically between 68-80°F (20-27°C), with humidity levels kept low during flowering to prevent mold and mildew. AK-47 can thrive outdoors in a warm, sunny climate ensuring the plants have plenty of sunlight and are protected from extreme weather conditions.

How to Grow Tips and Information

Temp and Humidity

The temperature range for growing AK-47 is between 68-80°F (20-27°C). If temperature rise too high, it can stress the plants and reduce bud quality, while too low temperatures can slow growth and hinder development.

Humidity levels are equally important for AK-47. During the vegetative stage, the humidity levels should be around 55-65%. As the plants transition to the flowering stage, lowering the humidity to around 40-50% is important. This will help prevent mold, mildew, and bud rot.

Grow Lights

This strain thrives under various types of lighting, but many growers prefer LED or HPS lights for the best results. LED lights are popular for providing a full spectrum of light. HPS lights are known for their intense light output. It’s important to maintain a light schedule that provides at least 18 hours of light during the vegetative stage and 12 hours during the flowering stage.

Harvest

This strain typically has a flowering time of around 8-9 weeks when grown indoors, while outdoor plants are usually ready to harvest by mid-to-late October. Growers should closely monitor the trichomes on the buds. When most trichomes turn from clear to a milky white, with some amber they are ready to harvest. Once the plants are ready to harvest, cut the branches and trim away the large and small fan leaves. The trimmed buds should then be hung upside down in a dark, cool room with good airflow and a temperature around 65-75°F (18-24°C) with 50-60% humidity. The drying process usually takes about 7-10 days.
