AK strains first started emerging in the mid-1990s. The most well known of the series is AK-47. AK-48 is it's close relative.
AK-48 is notorious for being an early-finishing indoor strain that produces tough, resilient buds that pack a potent aroma.
AK-48 has been known to finish in 48 days (hence the name) if everything goes well and the plant is well-maintained AK-48 itself is short, squat, bushy plant and an indica/sativa hybrid. You can really notice AK-48's sativa qualities in the high.
A great plant to start with for beginners.
AK-48 can bounce back from a missed feeding or an over-watering. Though it is not recommended. It's also a great strain for more advanced growers due to its potency and high yield. Not known for good tasting buds, AK-48 produces sticky, dense nugs that hold a powerful high. And, sometimes even a contact high.

AK-48-A STEP AHEAD

8 from Nirvana Seeds was a pleasure to grow, very simple and it seemed if I ever did mess up with over-feeding or missed a watering because I was away the plant always bounced back with nothing to it. I found it very easy to grow and when something went wrong it was very easy to fix and keep going strong. I would recommend this strain to anyone starting out because of the easiness but yet I would still recommend this strain to some of the most advanced growers because of the potency and yield.

Although the taste wasn't all that great even after properly drying and curing for some time, the high was very awesome. The buds were sticky, and dense. I was very surprised at the high I got from just one of the smaller buds on the lower branches. The taste may not be great but you will not be disappointed with the high and smell of the buds.

The plants tend to stay shorter and more bushy than most I have grown in the past; this is a great feature when limited on space and growing inside, even growing outside I'm sure this would be a great thing to have. I found the yield to be higher with the AK48 than I did other plants that tend to get tall and skinny. The plant is very easy to train and you don't have to worry about stressing it out all that much. I say all in all this plant was a pleasure to grow and didn't let me down in any of the areas except taste.

AK48 is an easy to grow plant of medium height and produces good yields quite quickly. Extremely STRONG odour and smoke. Take extra care for odour control when growing near neighbours. The name was given not out of any idea of violence, but more in association with the one hit wonder that the smoke is. Quality without compromise makes AK-48 from Nirvana Seeds suitable for commercial grows or home use. These plants have a short flowering period for a sativa, producing compact, not too leafy buds that gleam with a coat of resin crystals. Winning SEVEN prizes!! in Cannabis competitions, including second prize for the Best Sativa in the 1999 High Times Cannabis Cup, prove AK-48 is a favourite to smoke as well as to grow.

I am currently waiting for my AK-48 seeds, I haven't grown any bud PERIOD so I thought this may be a good one to try. Although the odor kinda scares me ;)

Nirvana's AK48 is good but, IMHO, Serious Seeds' AK-47 is better...... I get bigger , more potent buds with Serious version. Some of the biggest colas I've ever seen were on Serious Ak-47 outdoors, but it is very prone to mold in my area, because buds are sooo fat. So, I keep her indoors.

I know this is an old post but I guess AK48 is still ahnging in there with new growers. I just ordered AK48 and Bubblelicious for my first grow, I'm so pumped up about it I cant think about anything else. I hope I dont end up out of a job cuz all I can do is think about my cslling from RIU.

I do have a Question tho about it...

How is the smell of the plant when it gets into the flowering stage? I cant have it being way reaky, but if it can be managed then I am not too worried.
