AK-48 as Nirvana now call it was a cinch to grow - a hungry grower which was fast and sturdy. I got 1/2oz from each plant which was in a 1.5 ltr pot (lots of bud for a pot that size). It had a low leaf-to-calyx ratio and took no time to trim. A good commercial and head stasher!

Didn't taste very good compared to Northern Lights but potency damn, it's definitely the most potent buds I have grown or smoked. Let it veg for 6-7-8 weeks it gets way more potent, I even got a contact high from it which I never do when I wasn't smoking. It is so potent it makes you slobber and fee ...continued

The plants grew very fast, with dark green leaves and a more Indica shape. This strain produces much resin, trim leaves are very resinous, so it�s a very good bubblehash producer. The yield is also very good, and manicuring takes little time. I mixed cow and chicken manure, with worm castings to the soil, and never fed again, plants were very healthy during all their lives. I grew outdoors with full sunlight. plants where small because of my latitude (23 degrees south), so they grew for like 25 days and flowered. I only grew 2 plants of this strain, one had a small pot and became 1/4 of the size of the other plant. I observed 2 different phenos, and called them Silver (small plant) and Pine (big plant)

Pine pheno: Wide leaves, dark green, heavy yielder. At harvest the smell was piney (never heard of pine smell in AK, but mine had). After a week curing the smell is becoming more like citrus. The taste is pretty much the same as the smell. It�s not that 1 hit wonder, but it�s potent. No couch-lock effects (or very little), Makes you think in lots of stuff, but allows to concentrate when needed. the main effect lasts like 1 - 1,5 hour, then it lows and the body effects become more evident, you can even sleep if you don�t keep moving.

Silver pheno: The plant was very small due to pot size, had more sativa-like leaves, lighter green, lower yield. the smell is fruitier on this one. the buds had a more silver appearance because of the resin, even when dry this pheno looks more crystal. the high is also more heady and active. I would keep this pheno.

The AK-48 is a very beautiful plant, that grows fast and easily, and has lots of resin. I expected a little more on the high of this plant, but I still recommend it to everyone. It was a pleasure to grow, and I'll surely do it again.

Ak48 from Nirvana Seeds was a pleasure to grow, very simple and it seemed if I ever did mess up with over-feeding or missed a watering because I was away the plant always bounced back with nothing to it.

After a 100% germination I started preparing myself for the worst - lots of good pot!

Hey people, this grow took place one year ago, its just that I never had the guts to do a real report, well there it goes.

When I got these seeds from a friend they were still called AK-47, I believe it is the same strain as today, or at least similar.

Anyways, we grew them in the bush formats ...continued

Very quick growing plants. Germinated 5 seeds, 1 didn�t crack, 2m and 2f. The two females were similar looking plants. There wasn�t a whole lot of stretch. Despite this being an indica they will get huge if you want them to. I�ve got clones going in a SOG right now and they are looking great.
