Many users take advantage of the strain’s relaxing effect to relieve stress and anxiety. Others use it to take the edge off their chronic pains and aches. Insomniacs take 1-3 hits approximately an hour before bedtime to induce relaxation. They report an increase in the number of restful nights following this routine.

Others have described the AK-47 marijuana high as light and giggly, inducing laughter and smiles even on the most soul-sucking of days.

AK-47 may deliver a steady and long-lasting cerebral buzz that will keep you mentally alert and engaged in creative or social activities.

Aroma, Flavor, and Appearance of AK-47

AK-47 is an intensely aromatic strain, with a smell that is not only distinct in terms of the ‘general cannabis stench,’ but also distinct in its own unique, “gunpowdery” way.

The initial scent that hits the nose is actually a bit sour, followed shortly after thereafter with hints of floral and earthy aromas.

Appearance-wise, AK-47 is a vivid lime green color, blended with bright red-orange pistils; tiny hairs that curl and twist in between the sugar leaves. The buds can often also appear silvery-white in color, partially because of their immense THC content which coats the smokeable leaves in glistening crystals.

All in all, both the flavor profile and the physical stature of this beauty are something to behold.

Negative Side Effects of AK-47 Weed

Fortunately for those that love AK-47 or are highly motivated to try it, this hefty marijuana strain offers few negative side effects – aside from those that are typically expected when consuming pot.

The most frequently experienced adverse effects, for instance, are cottonmouth (dry mouth) and dry eyes – both of which can be easily managed with a little extra preparation and planning.
