AK-47

hybrid

AK-47 is described by Leafly as a hybrid with Colombian, Mexican, Thai and Afghan ancestry. That four-region summary does not specify the order of crosses or an immediate parent pair. Serious Seeds' own history connects AK-47 with Simon's work before the company's founding in 1995. This adds a breeder account to the catalog context without certifying every later AK-47-labelled sample. Skunk, tobacco and earth remain reported flavor descriptors rather than evidence of pedigree.

How to read these relationships

Parent links describe a reported cross. Ancestry components may be several generations back. A phenotype selection comes from a named line rather than a new two-parent cross. Disputed links retain the uncertainty of their source.

Names in this catalog open a strain profile. Other names open the reference describing the relationship. The family view shows the links currently documented here, not every known descendant.

03 / PLANT CHEMISTRY

Cannabinoid profile

CATALOG REFERENCE

Leafly catalog summary values, not laboratory results for a specific sample. A displayed 0% is a rounded source value, not proof of absence. Unlisted cannabinoids remain unknown.

Concentrations vary by sample. A cultivar name alone does not establish potency.

Terpenes & aroma

Catalog-listed terpenes. Dominance is shown only where the source states it; percentages are unavailable unless separately recorded.

Similar strains

Similarity uses catalog reference chemistry, reported attributes and lineage. Missing data is excluded; this is not an effects prediction.

Cheese

Cheese has roots in a British Skunk 1 selection. Leafly also describes later Afghani contributions, so these links represent family history rather than one universal cross.

White Widow

White Widow is associated in Leafly's account with Dutch breeding in the 1990s and ancestry from Brazil and southern India. These regional descriptions are broader than named, authenticated parent plants. The profile's woody, earthy and floral reader tags sit alongside a myrcene-led catalog terpene listing. They describe the source's record rather than establish a universal sample profile. Historical breeder attribution and the exact ancestral material still need primary documentation.

Green Crack

Green Crack is listed by Leafly with names including Green Crush and Mango Crack. Its proposed background pairs Skunk #1 with an unidentified indica, leaving part of the pedigree unresolved. Citrus, mango and earthy are reader flavor descriptors on the source page. The dramatic name is a naming convention, not an ingredient statement, and the unknown parent should stay unknown rather than be replaced with a familiar strain to complete the tree.

  • Leafly — ak 47 catalog parameters

    Leafly catalog summary values, not laboratory results for a specific sample. A displayed 0% is a rounded source value, not proof of absence. Unlisted cannabinoids remain unknown. Terpene names and documented order come from the catalog; concentrations are not supplied. Effects, flavors and negative effects are reader-reported tags. The report count covers the profile as a whole, not individual tags.

  • Leafly — AK-47: identity recheck

    Identity check: Leafly lists four regional ancestry components. A separate first-party Serious Seeds history discusses AK-47 in 1994 and the company's founding in 1995. Outstanding: detailed crossing records and independent historical corroboration; the breeder's account is not a laboratory authentication.

    Accessed 2026-09-23
  • Serious Seeds — breeder history

    First-party history associates AK-47 with Simon's work and a 1994 award before the company was founded in 1995. Supports breeder-history context only, not the exact regional pedigree or the chemistry of a current specimen. This is an interested breeder account, not independent certification.
