AK-47

Family: Skunk (multi-landrace hybrid context)

Parents: Colombian × Mexican × Thai × Afghani (commonly taught Serious Seeds model)

AK-47

AK-47 is a Serious Seeds–associated hybrid from the 1990s that became a durable catalog and competition name. It is taught as a multi-landrace polyhybrid rather than a two-parent dessert cross. That multi-region recipe is why AK-47 sits near Skunk- and Haze-era literacy even when the retail label does not say Skunk or Haze.

Commonly published teaching models list Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghani influences. Exact proportions and which regional selections Serious used in the earliest lots are breeder-history reconstructions. Records conflict among later AK-labeled remakes and phenotype nicknames; prefer the Serious-associated model for education and mark undocumented copies Unknown.

Why it mattered: AK-47 showed that a loudly named, multi-landrace hybrid could remain commercially recognizable for decades while drawing on the same Colombian–Mexican–Thai–Afghan vocabulary that built Skunk #1 and early Haze stories. Live related context includes Afghani, Thai, Colombian Gold, and Acapulco Gold as landrace building-block pages—not as proven identical cuts inside every AK jar. Skunk-family neighbors such as Super Skunk share era and ingredient language without being automatic siblings.

Keep Cookies dessert and Chem Diesel fuel families separate unless a specific cross is documented on a child’s page. AK-47 is multi-line by design; aroma resemblance to modern polyhybrids is not a pedigree.

Love The Plant keeps this entry educational: multi-landrace parent models, why the catalog name mattered historically, linked landrace building blocks, and aroma terpene names—Unknown where remakes diverge.

Terpene names often discussed for AK-47–leaning cuts include Myrcene, Caryophyllene, Pinene, Limonene, and Humulene. Educational aroma chemistry only—no effects claims, no invented lab percentages.
