AK-47 Medical Marijuana Strain Review

From:  Botanic Labs

Grade:  A-

Type:  Slightly Sativa-dominant hybrid, see AK-47′s strain encyclopedia page for more info

Price:  $20/gram

Appearance:  (8/10)  Nice structures and density, compact but still fluffy enough to allow good trichome builds.  It was a bit too dry but better than too wet.

Aroma:  (6/10) Smell is a bit neutral on the outside.  When broken up it has rich sweet scents of juicy fruit gum and an earthy undertone.

Taste:  (7/10) The flavor is a bit like sandalwood and very organic.  Has a hint of pepper, very smooth with good expansion.

Effects:  This sample may have had a high CBD percentage as it was a slow, creeping start that continued to gain momentum.  The soaring sativa cerebral high is present first, followed by a heavy shoulders and neck body experience about 30 minutes in.  THC seemed to be a little lower (possibly converted to CBN) because the cerebral aspects were a bit “stoney” and heavy, as is common with high CBD and lower THC relatively.

Duration:  Medium.  1.5 – 2 hours

Medicinal Use: (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  Appetite inducer, muscle relaxation, mild headaches.  Very mild pain relief qualities.

Overall:  This was a nice example of an organic AK47 with complex smells and a nice mixed-bag of effects.  The potency was good, but with the CBD creep we’d expect the duration to last a little longer.
