Jack Herer

Jack Herer is an extremely popular strain in the cannabis community. Created perhaps in the late 80s or 90s by Sensi Seeds, the strain was named after Jack Herer – a cannabis activist whose work is revered even today. Although strains created back then weren’t as potent as they are at present, Jack Herer recorded almost 15 to 24 percent levels when tested. As you can imagine, Jack Herer took the cannabis industry by storm because of its potent buds covered in sticky resin. It was and is regarded for its taste that sometimes smells like a combination of juicy oranges and feisty citrus flavors. With a strong pine aftertaste, a single deep puff of this legendary beauty is enough to make your day. Although the genetics of the strain is not really clear, Jack Herer is rumored to be a cross between Haze, Shiva Skunk and Northern Lights. With almost 55 percent Sativa, the plant displays all the traits of tall sativas growing in the wild. The buds are dense, though, with resin oozing from all sides, and the leaves are sometimes pale or medium green in color. Most importantly, Jack Herer is known for her effects. After all, she’s a proud winner of almost 9 cup titles in competitions held worldwide, so you can expect nothing less. Although the levels are super high, the effects are pretty balanced with users experiencing both physical and cerebral effects. You’ll certainly be a little more talkative and alert. The body high isn’t extreme, which is why she’s perfect to smoke in the mornings. Adored by both medicinal and recreational users, she’s best when converted to concentrates because the terpenes make the strain even tastier. The buds can make it a little difficult to break them up since they are so dense, but the strain’s taste and the fragrance is something you’ll never be able to forget.
