Origins and Lineage
AK 47 Auto is the autoflowering version of a classic Amsterdam strain, created by crossing the original AK-47 with a ruderalis variety. The heritage of the photoperiod AK-47 is believed to combine genetics from Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghan landraces. This blend results in a hybrid with roughly 40% sativa, 40% indica, and 20% ruderalis influence.
