Amnesia × AK47 Strain Description
Amnesia × AK47 is a feminized hybrid combining the uplifting cerebral buzz of Amnesia with the calm, relaxed body high of AK47. With a 70% Sativa / 30% Indica profile, THC ranges between 17%–20% and CBD sits at just 0.02%. Consumers enjoy a clear, energetic head‐high followed by gentle physical relaxation, making it ideal for daytime creative pursuits or unwinding at dusk.
Plants remain a manageable 4.9 ft (1.5 m) tall and finish in 8–10 weeks of flowering. Yields are moderate: 1.15–1.64 oz/ft² (350–500 g/m²) indoors or 2–3 oz/plant (60–80 g) outdoors. Dense, resinous buds exhibit citrus and diesel aromas, driven by terpenes like Alpha-Pinene, Beta-Caryophyllene, Beta-Pinene, Delta-Limonene, and Linalool.
Therapeutically, it relieves depression (via Caryophyllene & Linalool), insomnia (Myrcene & Terpineol), and muscle spasms (Myrcene & Humulene). Growers appreciate its beginner-friendly genetics, vivid aroma, and balanced effects, making Amnesia × AK47 a versatile cultivar for a range of users.

Growing Environment
Indoors, maintain daytime temperatures of 70–78 °F (21–25 °C) with a slight 5 °F drop at night. During vegetative growth, keep humidity at 55%–65% to support vigorous leaf development. When flowering begins, reduce humidity to 40%–50% to prevent mold and concentrate resin production.
Outdoors, choose a sheltered, sunny location with at least six hours of direct light. Enrich well-draining soil with compost or worm castings before transplanting. Provide wind protection using hedges or fences, and space plants at least 3 ft (1 m) apart to ensure good airflow and light penetration.
Consistent air circulation is crucial: use oscillating fans indoors and ensure cross‐ventilation outdoors. This helps maintain stable temperatures and reduces pest and disease pressure throughout the plant’s lifecycle.
Setting Up Your Grow Space
Amnesia × AK47 Strain Indoor Cultivation
Use a 4×4 ft grow tent outfitted with reflective Mylar to maximize light efficiency. Hang full‐spectrum LED or HPS fixtures on an 18/6 cycle for veg, then switch to 12/12 once the plants show pre-flowers. Install a carbon-filtered exhaust system and oscillating fans to regulate temperature, humidity, and odor.
Plant directly into 3–5 gal pots filled with a light, airy soil blend (pH 6.0–6.5) amended with perlite. Starting in final containers avoids transplant shock and stabilizes root development. Automated controllers for climate and timers ensure consistent conditions through the 8–10-week cycle.
Amnesia × AK47 Strain Outdoor Cultivation
Prepare raised beds or fabric pots by mixing native soil with compost and perlite at a 2:1 ratio. Plant after the last frost when soil temperatures exceed 65 °F (18 °C). Space each plant 3–4 ft (1–1.2 m) apart to promote airflow and reduce humidity pockets.
Water deeply when the top inch of soil dries, then allow a slight dry-back to encourage deep root growth. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and deter weeds. In regions with heavy rain, use a simple shade cloth or tarp to protect buds during early flowering.
Seed Propagation and Germination
Soak seeds in distilled water for 12 hours to soften the shell, then transfer to damp paper towels at 75–80 °F (24–27 °C). Within 24–48 hours, taproots will emerge. Plant each seed taproot-down ½ in into moist starter mix and cover with a humidity dome.
Provide 18–20 hours of gentle light until two sets of true leaves appear. Remove the dome gradually over 3–4 days to acclimate seedlings to ambient humidity. Mist lightly to maintain surface moisture without oversaturation.
Amnesia × AK47 Strain Vegetative Phase
Maintain an 18/6 light schedule with fixtures positioned 18–24 in (45–60 cm) above the canopy. Feed a nitrogen-rich nutrient solution (N-P-K 3-1-2) at half strength weekly. Apply low-stress training (LST) during weeks 2–3 to create a flat, even canopy and maximize bud sites.
Keep temperature at 70–78 °F (21–25 °C) and humidity at 55%–65%. Introduce beneficial microbes or a kelp-based foliar spray in early veg to strengthen roots and foliage. Prune lower leaves to focus energy on upper growth and improve airflow.
Amnesia × AK47 Strain Flowering Phase
Switch to a 12/12 cycle to induce bloom. Transition to a flowering nutrient blend high in phosphorus and potassium (N-P-K 1-3-2). Reduce humidity to 40%–50% and maintain temperatures between 65–75 °F (18–24 °C) to encourage resin production and terpene expression.
In week 4, remove large fan leaves that shade bud sites (“lollipopping”). Support heavy colas with soft ties or trellis netting during weeks 6–8. Begin flushing with plain water in the final week to improve flavor and smoothness in cured buds.
Fertilization and Nutrition
Veg (weeks 1–4): use N-P-K 3-1-2. Early bloom (weeks 5–7): switch to 1-3-2. Late bloom (weeks 8–10): finish with 0-3-3. Include calcium, magnesium, and trace elements to prevent deficiencies. Flush in the last week.
Enhance soil biology with organic amendments worm castings, bone meal, kelp meal to support microbial life and boost terpene profiles. A light foliar seaweed spray in early bloom can improve flower set.
Pest & Disease Control
Inspect plants daily for spider mites, aphids, and thrips. At first sign of infestation, apply neem oil or insecticidal soap, treating leaf undersides. Yellow sticky traps help monitor flying pests and reduce populations.
Maintain strong airflow to prevent powdery mildew and botrytis. Avoid overhead watering in flowering, and quarantine new plants for 7 days before introducing them to your main crop.
Harvesting & Curing
Harvest when 70%–80% of trichomes are cloudy with some amber. Cut branches, trim large fan leaves, and hang upside-down in a dark, ventilated room at 60–70 °F (15–21 °C) and 50% RH. Rotate branches every 2–3 days for 7–10 days until stems snap.
Trim buds from stems and jar loosely in glass containers up to 75% full. “Burp” jars for 5–10 minutes daily in week 1, then weekly for 2–4 weeks. Use humidity packs to maintain 60%–62% RH, preserving aroma and smoothness.
Post‐Harvest: Drying, Curing & Storage
After drying, perform a final trim and jar buds with humidity packs. Continue daily burping for one week, then weekly for 2–4 weeks. Maintain 60%–62% RH to lock in terpenes and cannabinoids.
Store cured jars in a cool, dark place at 60–65 °F (15–18 °C). Avoid light and temperature swings. For long-term storage, add desiccants or RH regulators to preserve quality for months.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Nutrient Issues: Yellow leaves indicate nitrogen deficiency; burnt tips signal nutrient burn. Correct by adjusting feed or flushing with pH-balanced water, then resume at 50% strength.
Environmental Stress: Heat causes leaf curl; light burn bleaches tips. Raise lights, improve ventilation, and keep temperatures below 80 °F. Use humidifiers if RH drops below 40%.
Watering & pH/EC: Overwatering droops plants; underwatering wilts them. Water only when the top inch of soil is dry. Aim for pH 6.0–6.5 and EC 1.2–1.8 mS/cm, adjusting with pH up/down or diluting nutrients.
