Manufacturer Information
Genetics & Origin of El Alquimista
For El Alquimista, Samsara Seeds crossed AK47 with Northern Light. The breeder describes AK47 as one of the fastest Sativas of all and Northern Light as a legend; the result is an Indica-dominant hybrid with 70% Indica and 30% Sativa and a THC content of about 21%. The manufacturer does not state a CBD value. The strain description attributes its resistance to pests and mould to Afghan genetics. A cup win is also mentioned, though without naming the competition or the year. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod, so flowering only begins after the light cycle is switched. The autoflowering variant Auto El Alquimista is also available from Samsara Seeds; Serious Seeds carries an AK-47.
Who Is El Alquimista For?
El Alquimista is robust, fast and potent. It suits:
- Beginners looking for a strain that forgives watering mistakes
- Growers for whom high resistance to mould and pests is important
- Impatient gardeners who want to harvest after 50 to 55 days of flowering
- Outdoor growers who would like to be finished at the end of September
- Consumers looking for a long-lasting, deeply relaxing effect
If you have to grow inconspicuously, you should bear the conspicuous smell in mind – according to the manufacturer, the strain is less suitable for that. You can find other uncomplicated strains under cannabis seeds for beginners.
Growing El Alquimista: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
Indoors, according to Samsara Seeds, El Alquimista flowers for just 50 to 55 days and stays medium-sized; the breeder does not state a height in centimetres. It gives the yield as about 440 g/m². According to the strain description, the strain shows remarkable tolerance even with less than ideal care, above all towards watering mistakes. The large, foxtail-like flowers give off an intense fruit aroma, so a powerful carbon filter is part of the basic equipment. As a photoperiod strain, it only goes into flower after the switch to 12/12. You will find the most important basics for getting started in the tips for beginners.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, according to the manufacturer, El Alquimista is ready for harvest at the end of September and delivers up to 700 g per plant. Samsara Seeds cites very high resistance to mould and pests as well as a high tolerance of watering mistakes – good prerequisites for the garden. A sunny location helps to make full use of the potential; because of the strong smell, you should bear in mind the distance from neighbours. The breeder does not give a growth height outdoors. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of El Alquimista
According to Samsara Seeds, El Alquimista smells intensely fruity, sweetish and slightly spicy; for the flavour, the breeder names ripe fruit with a sweet note. The smell is conspicuous – a pleasure in the jar but nothing for secret grows, as the strain description puts it. The manufacturer does not state a lab terpene profile. The effect is described as long-lasting and pleasantly narcotic: deeply relaxing, with a slight cerebral component. Samsara Seeds also speaks of an extremely pleasant effect. With about 21% THC it is strong; how intense the effect is depends on dose and individual tolerance.
