Growing Information
AK 59 Auto is considered moderately easy to grow and suitable for cultivators of all experience levels. The strain completes its full lifecycle in 8-10 weeks from germination, with flowering occurring automatically regardless of light schedules. Indoor yields range from 550-750g/m2 (1.8-2.46 oz/ft2), while outdoor plants produce 100-180g per plant (3-6 oz/plant). Plants remain compact at 50-70cm in height, making them ideal for stealth growing and small indoor spaces. The strain thrives in temperatures between 70-80°F (21-27°C) and requires at least 6-liter pots for optimal root development. It has a strong, pungent odor that growers should consider when choosing location and equipment. The strain is hardy and robust but benefits from quality substrates like perlite, peat, or coco coir for moisture retention. Recommended light cycles are 18/6 or 20/4 for maximum yields, though it can flower with as little as 12 hours of light per day.
