Family & lineage
AK-47 is a 1990s Serious Seeds hybrid name associated with a published Colombian × Mexican × Thai × Afghani recipe story. That multi-landrace framing is teaching language from seed-list history, not a lab certificate for every pack that later reused the title. Floral, earthy, and sweet-spicy aromatic stories keep the name recognizable across decades of remakes.
Dutch catalog fame pushed AK-47 into global distribution, where the short label became a competition-era staple. Later companies issued their own versions, so AK-47 on a menu is often a brand signal more than one identical genotype. Teaching accounts keep the Serious Seeds-era recipe visible while marking later remakes as separate unless a documented cut is named.
Live neighbors include Colombian Gold, Thai, Afghani, Skunk #1, White Widow, and Northern Lights. Confirm each record. AK-47 should not be collapsed into Skunk #1 or treated as a pure landrace, even when its published story cites tropical and Afghani parents.
Compare the landrace neighbor pages first, then weigh European hybrid-era peers one page at a time. Catalog fame can make a hybrid feel foundational even when older regional names came first. Compare neighboring pages carefully before treating shared branding as one genotype. Catalog fame on a label is not the same as a locked parent certificate.
