Very amazing fruity taste, very strong hoppy/herbal flavor as well. Very uplifting high with insane levels of euphoria, 9.5/10

One of my go-to's. Always a favorite daytime strain.

Best Flavor I’ve had Yet, Smells good &amp; Smokes good!! Its wat u call GAS GASS.
Trulieve got the best BUD!

It is so great just like the late Jack himself! Got a great deal from SAINTS dispensary in Tucson az of amazing Jack!!

I just submitted a review of this strain, but forgot one very important quality. This strain does not cause me to want to eat, or to feel hungry or 'the munchies' in any way. This is a biggie for me, due to some unusual stomach issues that I have.

Jack Herrer si good, have good flavour and im smoked up.

Medium sized, dense nugs with orange and yellow hairs. Smells like pine trees and glue. After 2 bong rips I immediately felt energized and giggly. Later I became very relaxed, hungry, and couch locked. This is a very potent strain with great uplifting effects but I found some of the side effects to be overwhelming.

As a beginner I’m new to trying out different strains but I really enjoy this one. It definitely helps with my stress, anxiety, and depression.

<p>A lighter cross of <a href="/strains/og-kush">OG Kush</a>, <a href="/strains/jack-herer">Jack Herer</a>, and Lemon Joy, Spicy Disco is a perfect treat for anyone looking for a little more sativa in their OG. This strain has a spicy citrusy terpene profile with haze undertones and lime green buds are contrasted with orange pistils, growing open and loose. Spicy Disco has mellow cerebral and body effects making it a great afternoon strain for a hike or a bike ride.</p>


Spicy Disco

<p>Kahuna is a 4-way cross between Super Skunk, Big Skunk Korean, Jack Herer, and Afghan Hawaiian&nbsp;that brings together a wide set of influences for a complex high. The Kahuna variety has both tropical influences in its parentage&nbsp;and spiritually attuning effects when used.</p>

<p>Jack Herer is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that has gained as much renown as its namesake, the marijuana activist and author of <em>The Emperor Wears No Clothes</em>. Combining a <a href="/strains/haze">Haze</a> hybrid with a <a href="/strains/northern-lights--5">Northern Lights #5</a> and <a href="/strains/shiva-skunk">Shiva Skunk</a> cross, Sensi Seeds created Jack Herer hoping to capture both cerebral elevation and heavy resin production. Its rich genetic background gives rise to several different variations of Jack Herer, each <a href="/news/growing/cannabis-genotypes-and-phenotypes-what-makes-a-strain-unique">phenotype</a> bearing its own unique features and effects. However, consumers typically describe this 55% sativa hybrid as blissful, clear-headed, and creative.</p>

<p>Jack Herer was created in the Netherlands in the mid-1990s, where it was later distributed by Dutch pharmacies as a recognized medical-grade strain. Since then, this spicy, pine-scented strain&nbsp;has taken home numerous awards for its quality and potency. Many breeders have attempted to cultivate this staple strain themselves in sunny or Mediterranean climates, and indoor growers should wait 50 to 70 days for Jack Herer to flower.</p>

</div>Jack Herer is one of the most well-known men—and cannabis strains—in the whole wide world of weed. The man, for those unfamiliar, is <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/politics/searching-jack-herer-emperor-american-cannabis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a famed cannabis activist</a> who authored <em>The Emperor Wears No Clothes</em>, a comprehensive book on cannabis and hemp, and the various uses and benefits of them. This article is not about him. <a href="https://www.leafly.com/sativa/jack-herer">Jack Herer</a> the strain is a sativa-dominant cultivar created by crossing a <a href="https://www.leafly.com/sativa/haze">Haze</a> hybrid with <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/northern-lights--5">Northern Lights #5</a> and <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/shiva-skunk">Shiva Skunk</a>. The strain is THC-dominant, and terpene-wise, it mainly has <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/strains-products/least-common-terpene-terpinolene-effects">terpinolene</a>, <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/science-tech/caryophyllene-terpene">caryophyllene</a>, and <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/what-is-pinene-and-what-are-the-benefits-of-this-cannabis-terpene">pinene</a>. These terps push fresh pine and black pepper flavors, reminiscent of many Haze-influenced cannabis strains. <div class="leafly-inline-related-story border border-deep-green-alt border-l-0 border-r-0 mb-xl mt-xl py-md"><a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/strains-products/least-common-terpene-terpinolene-effects"><div class="font-bold text-green text-xs">Related</div><h4 class="text-sm">What is terpinolene and what does this cannabis terpene do?</h4></a></div> For some people, this famous strain is exactly what they want from cannabis. For others, like me, absolutely none of this is appealing. I’ll tell you why.</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md">The flavor tastes like bad breath</h2>
<p>When it comes to cannabis, I’m very much aware of how individualistic all of our experiences are. I know that some of us like sweet strains, some of us like fruity strains, and some of us like strains like Jack Herer that taste of earth and black peppery spice. <div class="leafly-inline-related-story border border-deep-green-alt border-l-0 border-r-0 mb-xl mt-xl py-md"><a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/strains-products/sweet-fruity-cannabis-strains-difference"><div class="font-bold text-green text-xs">Related</div><h4 class="text-sm">What’s the Difference Between Sweet and Fruity Cannabis Strains?</h4></a></div> I enjoy the first two, but that earthy flavor of cannabis is absolutely disgusting. Sure, most cultivars producing these terpenes are powerful and get you stoney baloney, but if you don’t enjoy the smell or taste of your buds, you definitely will not enjoy the complete experience. When I smoke Jack, regardless of grower or phenotype, the flavor simply tastes like dirty air that makes me think, “Oh yeah, my breath is going to smell terrible after this.” And that’s on both the inhale and exhale.</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md">The high is sooooo blah</h2>
<p>Have you ever smoked a strain that was potent, but the high was so heady that you never actually felt stoned, you just felt like your head was on fire and you couldn’t wait for it to end? That’s what Jack Herer did to ya boy on July 16, 2017. It&#8217;s said that Jack Herer gives consumers a boost of cerebral stimulation, resulting in a clear-headed and blissful experience. My experience was anything but clear-headed or blissful. I smoked a joint of this strain before a flight and after an entire gram of rolled flower, I felt like my mind was all cloudy and bogged down, while also feeling super duper alert, to the point where I got anxious and sweaty. <div class="leafly-inline-related-story border border-deep-green-alt border-l-0 border-r-0 mb-xl mt-xl py-md"><a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/health/how-to-help-a-friend-who-got-too-high"><div class="font-bold text-green text-xs">Related</div><h4 class="text-sm">How to help a friend who got too high</h4></a></div> If that type of high sounds appealing to you, then yeah, grab this hazy cannabis strain and catch your thrills. But if you’re like me and prefer to be high and happy, then do yourself a favor: Be wary of Jack Herer genetics.</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md">Jack Herer is a terrible teammate</h2>
<p>Speaking of Jack Herer genetics, there are plenty of popular Jack-crossed strains that I’ve tried since my first Jack experience, and guess what? They either hit the same, or they dilute the effects from the strain(s) in the cross, because those Haze genetics are so dominant and overpowering. <div class="leafly-inline-related-story border border-deep-green-alt border-l-0 border-r-0 mb-xl mt-xl py-md"><a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/strains-products/terpenes-in-haze-cannabis-strain-family"><div class="font-bold text-green text-xs">Related</div><h4 class="text-sm">Which Terpenes Are Found in ‘Haze’ Cannabis Strains?</h4></a></div> So if you’re smoking something crossed with Jack, you might as well just get the original, because chances are this parent will shine through. A perfect example of this is <a href="https://www.leafly.com/sativa/candy-jack">Candy Jack</a>. It crosses <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/skunk-1">Skunk #1</a> with Jack Herer, and even though the Skunk genetics win the aroma and flavor side of things, those effects are still dominated by Jack’s presence. As you can see, Jack is a ball hog that thinks there’s an I in TEAM. Even though Jack Herer boasts a very strong 4.4 star rating on Leafly, it is a very overrated cannabis strain.

7 cannabis strains perfect for daytime use

Jack Herer is my morning medicine.  I take it daily every morning before work, and it turns me into a happy, focused, energized person completely capable of working and talking to people without tripping over my tongue.  I was severely depressed for several months, then I started taking Jack every morning and my world view changed completely.  And btw, reading the other reviews makes me shake my head in disapproval.  For one thing, Jack is a sativa-dominant strain that will put your head in the clouds and it has just the perfect amount of indica in it to keep your feet on the ground.  Do not expect it to work well as a sleep aid, people!  Indicas are typically good for sleep and anxiety, sativas are typically good for energy and depression.  Doing a sativa strain even early in the morning has affected my sleep pater that night, so be careful and make sure to have some indica to help you come down off the sativa high later on.  Another thing that perplexed me, was reading about that guy who did a bunch of it in Amsterdam.  Jack is a SUPER potent strain, I do not recommend doing like that guy did, he obviously did too much.   Sativas can give you a bad trip, so to speak, if you do too much, at least for us types who have issues with anxiety.  Jack can absolutely help you focus, if you do like one nice big hit off a vaporizer and let it ride.  If you do too much you'll feel like you're on crack, at least that's been my experience with all sativa-dominants.  Sativas are not to be taken lightly. It's not like indica where you can do bowl after bowl till you pass out.  Sativa will energize you and speed up your thoughts, making it great for depression but not great for sleep aid or anxiety.  Jack just happens to have the perfect blend of both to treat stress, depression, anxiety, and lack of motivation.  This strain replaced my need for ADD and OCD prescription pills. Thank you, Sensi Seeds, for creating one of the best strains on the planet!!! -dbvapor 

I am known by any one who will listen to be a great lover of kushes to deal with a chronic nausea issue and social anxiety.  Since changing LP's have had lots of different choices to explore to control health issues.  I thought I had already had the best of everything until I tried Jack Herer.  It is my all time day time fave.  It is energizing, but at the same time calming.  Since I usually have high anxiety it's important to have a good balance in your choices, and normally this means mixing for me.  But with this strain for some reason, it is great on it's own or as a helper depending on what your day brings and your level of discomfort.  On a bad day it's one of my recipes, Jack and a really great Kush and perhaps a dash of some CBD.  A game changer!!!  Thanks to Tilray for having great selections and quality.

This is one of my very favorite strains.  I am unusually vulnerable to feeling anxiety and paranoia when using cannabis, Jack has never even made me tense.  A reliable calm and uplifting experience that doesn't cloud my mind.  Functional daytime medicine.  I avoid this when I do school work, but that's about it.  
Only downsides in my experience are: morning headache (if smoked to close to bedtime) and unending, irreconcilable munchies.
I would heavily recommend this strain to anyone dealing with PTSD, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and Chemo. Honestly, if I where diagnosed with cancer tomorrow, my 3rd move would be to find Jack Herer in flower and clone.  
Do yourself a favor and go find some, a very special strain.

I came across a Jack Herer concentrate, has high terps and is incredible. This stuff makes you feel so good it's not even funny....well yea it is funny lol, anyways the taste on this stuff has got to be some of the best tasting concentrate I've ever had, tastes like very true Jack Herer. Best used for Anxiety, Depression, Spasms, & Pain in my opinion. They were raving about it at the dispensery saying "this Holy Water Jack Herer is just amazing" well the person in front of me skipped it and I'm very glad they did as it was the last one. If you come across "Holy Water" Jack Herer you HAVE to try it regardless of if you prefer Sativa, Hybrid and or Indica. This stuff is the Bee's Knee's my friends. 

Dense and sticky buds that were trimmed beautifully. Smells glorious!! Vaporized in a volcano and it was AMAZING!!! Instantly relieved my neck and back pain. I have MS, RA and a rare brain disorder that requires a shunt to drain spinal fluid. I've been in a lot of pain lately so I was hoping OregonMedigreen could help me out. Jim suggested some Jack Herer and gave me a little bit to try. This morning I woke up in horrible pain, I could hardly move. My girlfriend loaded the vaporizer with some Jack and 10min later I was sitting up enjoying coffee with a big smile on my face. :) The muscle pain began to melt away and I felt like I was floating happily on the bed. It gave me zero anxiety which is great because I tend to feel anxious with sativas. I LOVE this flower!! I FINALLY found a great daytime smoke!! 

great strain! it took me a while to get around to trying this perennial favorite, but it was immediately clear why it's so popular. one of the magical things about some strains is the capacity to get you out of your chair and inspire you to do a creative project. my 'champs' for this are bubbleberry, cinderella 99, and cinex. among the creative champs I've found a continuum of jittery-ness, that speed-like trait that, at least to me, is undesirable. cinex is at my outside limit on this; allen wrench goes too far: too jittery. then there are the 'gentle' creatives (e.g. chocolope, space queen) - lovely and worth trying, but they lack that mysterious force impelling you on, not really giving you the choice to remain in a chair watching a movie. it's rare for me to put a strain into my top 5 (out of 70+) on first try, but this one was a no-brainer.

as if that wasn't enough, you can find a video online of Jack Herer ranting about the idiotic anti-marijuana laws; not only did this guy come up with a legendary strain, he's spot-on as far as the legal issues: a million people have had their lives, and often their right to vote, harmed, over cannabis. Herer doesn't come out and say it (Michael Moore does, in 'where to invade next'), but the drug laws are just a continuation of Jim Crow, an attempt to deny people of color the right to vote. go Jack!

Not big into sativas but this one I make an exception. This ones a knock out. I wouldn't doubt this one goes down in the history books like diesels. This is how all sativas should be

<p>Along with <a href="/strains/haze" title="Haze Marijuana Strain">Haze</a> and <a href="/strains/skunk-1">Skunk #1</a>, <a href="/strains/northern-lights" title="Northern Lights Cannabis Strain">Northern Lights</a> is among the most influentials strains of all time. &nbsp;The #5 strain was first entered into competition in 1989. &nbsp;The strain quickly dominated the Cannabis Cup, winning in &#39;89, &#39;90, and &#39;92.</p>


Northern Lights #5

<p>Shiva Skunk by Sensi Seeds&nbsp;is among the most powerful varieties in the Skunk family, crossing the famous <a href="/strains/skunk-1">Skunk #1</a> with the resinous and hardy <a href="/strains/northern-lights--5">Northern Lights #5</a>. This potent <a href="/strains/lists/category/indica">indica</a> inherits the&nbsp;<a href="/strains/lists/flavor/sweet">sweet</a>, <a href="/strains/lists/flavor/pungent">pungent</a> aroma typical of Skunk varieties&nbsp;and the&nbsp;high-yielding potential of its Northern Lights mother. Its effects tend toward the lazy&nbsp;side of the spectrum, so evening use is recommended.</p>
