I got this strain because I wanted the "one hit wonder". I knew it wouldn't get me stoned after just a hit, but I want to see the strain that can do that to me.
Grow:
I germed 4 seeds, and they all sprouted.
They grew uniformly and fast, they were a bit different tho, some were more sativa than others.
One pheno, sativa dominant, grew faster and stronger than the others, this one also proved to perform and yield best. It's the one you normally see when having an AK pic.
Cloned well after about 8-10 days.
Preflowers showed after about 3 weeks, I had 3 females and 1 male.
Flower:
In flower 3 different phenos showed:
1) Dark green, sometimes kinda weird leaves, budding kicked in late, buds stayed fluffy.
Sweet smell.
Rather poor yield, 1/2 oz, mostly due to being far away from the light.
2) The best. Light green, the great white AK buds, lots of sidebuds, sweet honey smell.
Towards the end it showed severe mg deficiency, after the other strains tho. I gotta admit the yellow leaves looked neat!
Very sticky stuff, and if you don't like trimming you'll love this strain, some small leaves, but nothing really.
Yield was good, about 2oz.
3) Stayed small, so did the buds, but they were just covered in a layer of resin, just incredible. The buds were not rather fluffy tho, didn't yield much but good trim and about 1/2 oz of great weed.
Smoke:
The finished product is extremly sticky, smelling sweet, but herbal sweet, more interesting than just sweet. I've heard many saying normally it's cherry, but with all the phenos I had I got this smell that I can't define with words, very pleasant, with a slight hint of cherry. Pheno 1 has an earthy smell.
The high is very good, rushing and strong, coming on fast. Mostly heady, meaning your head feels like a detatched unit, kinda heavy. At the same time you just can't get a smile off your face. I don't find thinking to be a problem after consumption.
A joint burns smooth, smells sweet, the smoke is heavy and kind of sweet, too.
I don't recommend this weed for bong smokers! I can smoke pretty much everything in a bong, but a good hit from AK48, which goes in smooth, makes you explode when you exhale, it expands very much.
Opinion:
I think this was pretty much what I expected. Well, one pheno was, #1 wasn't worth the effort and #3 needs more light.
Overall certainly a strain that I will grow again (clone from #2).
The smoke is great, so is the growth of the plant. A bargain at 20?. money doesn't grow on trees... right.
