Definite Sativa, Has this amazing fruityiness that is slightly pungent with... well a Jack Herer smell over it, The high is perfect, you are chilled with a head high that is more of a buzz and it kills stress with no ill effects after awhile the indica sets in and you might drop though.

The Purple Kush really helps with the anxiety I tend to feel from Sativa dominant strains such as Jack. I get the amazing conversation-stimulating and uplifting effects of the Sativa with the body calming effects of the Indica. 

Really couldn't tell if this was sativa or indica.  It felt like both. All I know is it is strong. Almost too much at one point but not quite. A bit of a creeper. Very stoney, could put you to sleep if that is what you want it for. Body and head high. SMMA says it is Sativa dom, the few strain websites that have it say it is 70% indica. Thumbs up. This is powerful medicine.

First thing I noticed was a very sweet citrus smell not unlike a tangerine or mango.  The buds had a nice green color with very light coloured hairs.  The buds were not as dense as I have seen in other strains.   I was told this strain has Jack H. and an indica.  The smoke was harsher than I am used to.  I dont use tobacco products so I may be more sensitive.   The effects did creep a bit.  But to me I experienced a clear head buzz that finished with a nice calm. Pain relief was not as effective as other strains but it did help.   I did not notice any serious couch lock nor did it seem to sedate me.   I would use this as a day time med..  keep a solid indica for sleepy time.  Ofcouse no baggie is hardly ever the same because of growing methods, but the sample I had (oz) was not outstanding.   It was however well above average and still provided a pleasant therapeutic affect.

This strain gives you a very nice mind and body high, perfect for creativity and productivity

This is one of my favorite daytime strains.  I can focus very well and hold an intelligent conversation.  I usually don't like the taste of most strains, but this one is delicious and tangy.  It reminds me of those sweet tarts candies.

The aroma that first hit my nose was very piney. This is one of my favorite strains because of the uplifting euphoric effects but also brings in the mellow, don't work too hard today effects. Great for anxiety and relaxation.

Jack Herer is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that has gained as much renown as its namesake, the marijuana activist and author of The Emperor Wears No Clothes. 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.

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.
