Auto AK Feminized Seeds by Female Seeds · Fast Autoflowering AK-47 Hybrid

Female Seeds Auto AK is the automatic, hassle-free version of the legendary AK-47, delivering its iconic cerebral high and dense, resinous buds in a compact, fast-flowering package perfect for any grower.

Tired of waiting months for your harvest?

You want that legendary AK-47 punch, but you don't have the patience or space for a long photoperiod cycle. The clock is ticking, and you're stuck between wanting top-shelf quality and needing a quick, discreet grow. Every extra week is a risk and a delay from enjoying your own premium smoke.

This frustration ends with Auto AK. By crossing the pure AK-47 lineage with a sturdy Ruderalis base, Female Seeds created a strain that autoflowers, meaning it flips to bud production on its own schedule, not yours. You get all the classic AK characteristics—the intense aroma, the sticky trichomes, the euphoric high—but in a plant that's ready in as little as 10 weeks from germination. It's the perfect solution for fast cycles, limited spaces, or simply avoiding the complexity of light schedule changes.

What Auto AK Does For You

This strain is your shortcut to satisfaction. It takes the world-renowned power and flavour of AK-47 and packages it into a resilient, autoflowering format. You'll grow a plant that stays manageably between 40–80 cm (15.75–31.50 in) indoors, forming a solid main cola with some side branching, perfect for a Sea of Green (SOG) setup or a discreet balcony grow. The result? You harvest hard, frosty buds with that distinctive penetrating and earthy aroma in record time, without needing to change your light cycle.

How to Grow Auto AK in a Few Steps

Growing Auto AK is straightforward, but a few key steps will maximize your results. Remember, autoflowers have a fixed life cycle, so minimizing stress is crucial.

1. Start Right: Germinate seeds in a warm (22–25°C), humid environment. For a strong, stress-free start that promotes explosive root growth, consider using a root stimulator like Berkana.
2. Transplant Early & Gently: If transplanting, do it early (around day 10-14) and with extreme care to avoid shocking the plant. Autoflowers prefer to go directly into their final pot, which should be at least 11–20 L (2.9–5.3 gal) for optimal root space.
3. Provide Consistent Light: Run an 18/6 or 20/4 light schedule from start to finish. Auto AK doesn't need a 12/12 flip, so keep the photons coming for strong growth.
4. Feed Lightly & Monitor: This strain is a light to moderate feeder. Start with a mild nutrient regimen and increase gradually. Overfeeding is a common mistake. Keep pH in the 6.0–6.5 range for soil.
5. Let It Flower & Ripen: The plant will begin flowering automatically around weeks 3-5. Support heavy colas if needed and watch the trichomes. Harvest when most are milky with some amber for a balanced effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Auto AK good for beginners?

Absolutely. Its easy-going nature, compact size, and automatic flowering make it one of the most beginner-friendly ways to get a taste of legendary AK genetics without the complexity of photoperiod plants.

Can I top or heavily train Auto AK?

It's not recommended. Autoflowers have a limited time to recover from high-stress training (HST) like topping. Stick to low-stress training (LST) by gently bending branches to open up the canopy for better light penetration without slowing it down.

What's the best pot size for Auto AK?

For the best results, start autoflowers in their final pot to avoid transplant shock. A pot between 11–20 L (2.9–5.3 gal) is ideal, providing ample root space for healthy growth and solid yields.

When is Auto AK ready to harvest?

From seed, expect about 10-12 weeks total. The best indicator is the trichomes on the buds. Use a jeweller's loupe; harvest when they are mostly milky white for a more energetic high, or wait for some to turn amber for a more relaxing effect.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I've run Auto AK a few times over the years, and it's always been a reliable workhorse for a quick, satisfying harvest. What I love most is how it captures that classic, uplifting AK-47 buzz in a plant that practically grows itself. I remember one run where I was tight on space in my veg tent; I popped a couple of these in the corner on a 20/4 light schedule, and they just did their thing while I focused on my photoperiod projects. Ten weeks later, I was trimming dense, frosty nugs that smelled exactly like the AK I remember—earthy, a bit spicy, with a sweet undertone.

My pro-tip? Don't overcomplicate it. These aren't heavy feeders. I used a simple, balanced base nutrient like Terra Vega during growth and switched to a bloom booster later on, but kept doses light. The plant stayed compact, around 60 cm (23.62 in) in my setup, and yielded a very respectable amount for its size. It's the perfect strain when you need a win, want to test a new environment, or just crave that iconic AK high without the long wait. It's a staple in my "quick-turnaround" arsenal.
