King Tut

King Tut, which Leafly also calls Tutankhamon, is described there as a potent sativa made from an AK-47 cross. AllBud has it as a sativa-dominant hybrid at 80% sativa and 20% indica, descended from AK-47. What the labels used here really measure is covered in our type-label guide.

Fresh fruit, flowers and skunk

AllBud says King Tut tastes like fresh fruit and flowers, with a sour, skunky smell. Its flavour tag is citrus, and its aroma tags are citrus, earthy, pungent and skunky. Leafly describes sour, skunky and fruity flavours, and its Q&A section adds a skunky taste with sweet and earthy undertones; its flavour tags are skunk, citrus and flowery.

Myrcene leads on Leafly, and the THC figures from both sources

Myrcene tops Leafly’s terpene order, ahead of caryophyllene and limonene. On THC, Leafly gives 20% plus 1% CBG, while AllBud’s header shows 25% to 30%.

On Health Canada’s lower-your-risks page, effects from smoking or vaping start within seconds to minutes yet may keep building for half an hour, and it recommends that newcomers begin with 1 or 2 puffs of nothing stronger than 10% THC. The 25% to 30% range in AllBud’s header sits far above that mark.

A cerebral, peppy high

Leafly describes uplifting effects said to suit social outings or creative work, with focused, energetic, creative, happy and uplifted the tags its reviewers use most. AllBud describes a cerebral, peppy high suited to daytime errands, social events or creative work, and its users tag euphoria, happy and uplifting. AllBud adds that its strongest following is in Michigan, Arizona and the Pacific Northwest.

What growers report on Leafly

Leafly’s grower notes say damp air and fungus can be a problem for the plant, though it works very well as a mother plant. They add that plants can sit close together and have compact branches.
