AK-48 is a distinguished cannabis strain that has carved out its niche in the cannabis community. This strain is a hybrid, meticulously crafted by Nirvana Seeds, combining the genetics of Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghani strains. The name AK-48 is a nod to its swift flowering period, which can be as short as 48 days, making it a favorite among cultivators seeking quick turnaround times. Unlike its more famous relative, #3excludeGlossary, AK-48 offers a unique profile that balances cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. Over the years, AK-48 has maintained its reputation for delivering a potent, uplifting high that is both energizing and soothing. As the cannabis landscape continues to shift, #6excludeGlossary remains a go-to choice for those seeking a reliable and robust strain. [Source: Leafly]
USS Pegasus was built in 1939 as SS Rita Maersk by Helsingør Jernskibs og Maskinbyggeri A/A, Helsingør, Denmark. Following the outbreak of World War II in Europe, she sailed to the United States where she operated under charter from the Maritime Commission as Rita Maersk and later as Larwin. After completing two cruises, she was laid up at Boston, Massachusetts, until 18 September 1941 when she was acquired by the United States Navy from the Maritime Commission. Renamed USS Pegasus on 15 October 1941, the cargo ship was converted for U.S. Navy use by Sullivan Drydock and Repair Corporation, New York City, and commissioned at New York on 3 December 1941.
