AK+
Also known as: AK Plus, AK-47 Plus
AK+ Strain Overview
AK+ is an enhanced version of the classic AK-47 strain, developed through selective breeding to amplify its desirable characteristics while maintaining the genetic stability of its predecessor. This hybrid strain emerged in the early 2000s as breeders sought to improve upon the original AK-47's already impressive profile, resulting in a more consistent and potent variety that has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users. The strain represents a refinement of one of cannabis culture's most enduring and respected genetics.
Visually, AK+ plants typically display dense, resin-coated buds with a vibrant green coloration accented by orange pistils and a generous dusting of trichomes. The flowers are often compact and tightly structured, reflecting the strain's indica-dominant heritage while maintaining some sativa-like branching patterns. The enhanced resin production compared to the original AK-47 makes this strain particularly appealing to concentrate producers and those seeking maximum potency.
Notable features of AK+ include its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day. The strain has gained recognition for its reliability and consistency across different growing environments, which has contributed to its enduring popularity in both commercial and home cultivation circles. While not as historically significant as its parent strain, AK+ represents the ongoing evolution of cannabis genetics through careful breeding practices.

AK+ Strain Growing Information
AK+ is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid-October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants typically reach medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining good airflow to prevent mold in dense buds and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding during flowering.
