Overview
AK Auto is an autoflowering hybrid strain that combines the legendary genetics of AK-47 with ruderalis genetics to create a fast-flowering, compact cannabis variety. Originally developed by crossing the famous AK-47 strain with Lowryder genetics, this autoflowering version maintains the potent effects and complex flavor profile of its photoperiod parent while offering the convenience of automatic flowering. The strain is bred from a rich genetic heritage that traces back to Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghan landraces, creating a well-balanced hybrid that typically exhibits a 40% indica, 35% sativa, and 25% ruderalis genetic composition. AK Auto plants are characterized by their compact, bushy structure, typically reaching heights of 80-100cm, making them ideal for discrete cultivation. The buds are dense and resinous, displaying vibrant green colors with orange pistils and a heavy coating of trichomes. This strain has gained popularity among growers for its resilience, short flowering time, and ability to produce quality yields in various growing conditions.
