AK47 Auto
Also known as: AK-47 Auto, Auto AK-47, Royal AK Auto, AK Auto
Overview
AK47 Auto is an autoflowering version of the legendary AK-47 strain, created by crossing the original AK-47 with ruderalis genetics to produce an automatic flowering cycle. The strain inherited traits from legendary grandparent landrace strains Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghan, with the addition of autoflower genetics from a high-performing ruderalis strain that introduced rapid growing times. Overall, Royal AK Auto possesses a genetic split of 40% indica, 35% sativa, and 25% ruderalis. AK-47 Auto gives you all the classic traits of the so-called "one hit wonder" but in much shorter blooming time and with very low maintenance, with the only real difference being that AK-47 Auto is easier to grow and has a shortened life cycle. Originally bred in 1992 by Serious Seeds, AK has become the most awarded strain on the planet, with THC counts consistently above 20% and the recent addition of ruderalis has created a more balanced agenda in this sativa-heavy hybrid. The autoflowering version maintains the potency and effects of the original while offering faster cultivation times and greater ease of growing, making it ideal for both novice and experienced cultivators.

Growing Information
Growing information: AK47 Auto has a total lifecycle of 9-11 weeks from seed to harvest, with flowering starting after 3-4 weeks of vegetative growth. The strain is Sativa-dominant but contains enough Ruderalis genes to make it go from seed to harvest in less than 11 weeks. THC content ranges from 15-21%, with flowering time of approximately 6-8 weeks. The strain is beginner-friendly due to its resilience, compact size, and relatively easy care requirements. Indoor yields: 425-475g/m² with plants reaching 60-70cm height. Outdoor yields: 110-160g per plant with plants reaching 70-100cm height. Some sources report yields of 450-550 grams per plant or meter-squared in 6-8 weeks. The strain tolerates imperfect weather and grower mistakes, is resistant to pests and diseases, is very forgiving and can easily yield large harvests, doesn't require much special care and still delivers satisfying results. Best grown with 18-20 hours of light daily for optimal results. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation.
