I have 40+ years experience growing and using cannabis, a masters degree in agri/horticulture from MSU and will break each review down as follows from my own personal experience with seeds or clones obtained directly from the original breeders: - Use; Sativa effects, happy, euphoric, relaxed, great for depression, anxiety, stress, motivation and daytime use. This is a very nice strain by Nirvana Seeds and their version of Serious Seeds AK-47. It is a very nice strain with mostly sativa type effects, happy, euphoric, relaxed yet not to the point of making you unmotivated. If anything, it actually motivates you and it's great for daytime use. This is a perfect strain for depression, anxiety, stress, motivation and creativity. The buds are nice and dense and have a very nice fruity smell and taste with a very smooth smoke. It is definitely different than AK-47 but equal in its effects and ease of growth. Grow; Indoors: She can be finished in 7-8 weeks. - Outdoors: It's an excellent and my #1 choice if you live in a cooler area where plants need to finish earlier and you still want something with strong sativa effects. At 42*N latitude she started flowering the last week of July and was ready on October 1st. - Very easy to grow both indoors and out and again, very similar to AK-47. Plants have a distinct sativa leaf that is very narrow and grow in the typical pine tree look. The best thing about this strain is it's sativa dominance in effect and look, yet it has the Afghan gene that will make her finish very fast for a sativa, with very little stretching once flowering is induced. Has a high leaf to bud ratio in volume but not by weight as there are a lot of leaves to trim but most are very small and narrow. Strain seemed very stable with little variation between phenotypes.

AK-48 has helped me in so many ways with respect to my cancer. My appetite has resumed as normal, I sleep GREAT, less depression, moments of bliss, less pain and increased level of hope for survival. It is, without a doubt, my personal favorite, strongly recommended.

this strain was amazing, got an 1.5 oz, the high was a creeper but it was defiantly a couch lock after the third load into the bong. smoked a blunt with a friend, we got lost in the taco bell restroom, not for new smokers.

for AK48 i must say i like a lot..even tho she's not my typical type of medicine..because i'm using mostly cbd strains...but Ak48 has nice effect-relaxing and smooth..it's great social strain..great for weekend mornings -like today :D ...can have amazingly nice smell and aroma ...and it's easy for growing..like..one of easiest strains ..and it looks really nice vigorous growth..nice lime green..refreshing look and smell..responds good to LST..not hard for feeding ( easy to find her dosage )...that could be maybe one of my favorite newbies strain for those who want more sativa like effects and don't have enough experience for growing strains with more sativa influence/Characteristics ....and it's good as appetite stimulant,good for nausea..especially good for PTSD and depression caused by ptsd..and even for anxiety-she has a bit of sativa effect but i don't think anyone would be paranoic from her..no crazy heart race and all those unpleasant sativa effects which are big problem for people with anxiety. Smell/Aroma/taste are smooth and nicely balanced with that vibrant citrusy feel - refreshing but not to aggressive. refreshing and relaxing are first characteristics which comes to my mind when i think of Ak48..and along with that goes nice limeish green color of her leaves... like i said..I'm not even a big fan of "normal strains" because i'm using mostly CBD ( 1:1 or 2:1 strains ) strains as my medication -that is what i need most...but when i'm making myself oil from..lets say CBD Skunk Haze...i would put 20-30% od AK48 in one batch of oil...because i believe that will give even more potential for medic. use..as it will be a perfect mix for everyday use.. AK48 ( from Nirvana seeds-that is the one i'm talking about ) gets 5 stars from me..no brainer ( maybe she'd be more like 4,7 - 4,8 ...but since you don't have that option .. )

Was able to obtain a Jar of this beautiful Medicine. Fantastic soaring Euphoria, as the CBN quality of this Strain hits your Opiate Reseptors. A must.

This is a crazy strain! Strong visuals, complex and creative thinking. Newbies be careful, you might overreact to the effects.

Makes me happy to be alone. I don't seem to need company. I become introspective.
