Her genetic lineage is somewhat of a mystery, but she shares a heritage with the Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghan varieties.
The AK-74 cannabis strain has gained popularity amongst cannabis connoisseurs for many reasons. In particular, she is a resilient plant that grows with ease. One important thing to keep in mind is that her seeds may be prone to mold and mildew, so storing them in a clean and dry place is essential. Overall the AK-74 produces a medium-length plant with juicy sage green buds. The aroma is strong and pungent with elements of earthy, musk, and floral. As she has an intense fragrance, cultivation indoors or within a greenhouse is preferred. The flavor profile of the AK-74 is dynamic and evolving. Her flavor is dark and sweet with sharp notes of sour skunk and earth. The flavor develops on the taste buds, leaving behind a subtle sweet pine and citrus note.
Perhaps one of the most distinctive features of this cannabis strain is the high she produces. The AK-74 introduces its user to a mood-elevating high coupled with episodes of laughter and relaxation. Overall the high is more cerebral and euphoric. It can be an excellent choice for those requiring energizing and uplifting after a long hard day at work.
