How to germinate AK-47 feminized seeds

Germination can be challenging if you don’t do it correctly. Follow our step-by-step to ensure your AK-47 feminized seeds always germinate. The process is a little delicate, so we recommend making sure you have everything you need close by and handy before starting: 
- You’ll need two pieces of standard kitchen paper towel, a regular dinner plate, a pair of tweezers, and a small amount of either purified, or bottled water.
- Slightly wet the two paper towels. For this process we want the paper towel a bit wet, not soaking.  
- Place one of the sheets of kitchen paper onto the dinner plate. 
- Distribute your marijuana seeds in a uniform fashion on the kitchen paper. Ideally, the cannabis seeds should have an inch of space between each. 
- Cover the paper towel and cannabis seeds with the remaining piece of kitchen paper. You may need to add more water at this point. Just be careful! Aim for moist, not drowning in water. 
- If you overdo it with the water, no problem. You can hoist up your paper towel and seed ensemble, and dry any sitting water which might be left on the plate. 
- The best place to give your marijuana seeds time to germinate is somewhere not exposed to light, and somewhere quite warm. Think in a cupboard or a drawer for example. 
- Keep an eye on your marijuana seeds, make sure the towel doesn’t get dry. You need to wait for anything from 1–5 days for this part of the process.
- As soon as your little weed seeds develop good-looking taproots, they are at the stage for planting.
Be sure to follow our germination guide for the best results. You may void your germination guarantee if you choose another method.

With numerous prestigious awards to her name, AK-47 is one of the most award-winning cultivars on the market. You can see why she’s so popular. AK-47 feminized seeds are much more suited to a third or fourth grow.
AK-47 thrives in a mild, dry climate with a temperature between 68–80°F (20–28°C). The AK-47 cultivar works much better indoors, with regulated humidity.

You can use Screen of Green (SCROG) to really maximize the yield, getting the most out of your plants. Create a nice, even canopy by pruning and topping your plants early on.
