Overview
Like many other medical strains, Jack Herer was also developed in Amsterdam during the 1990s. Its lineage can be traced back to a Sativa Haze and a Northern Lights Number 5 and Shiva Skunk cross. The strain is 55% Sativa and 45% Indica.
Strain Effects
The effects of Jack Herer have the ability to improve your mood, promote feelings of joy, and invigorate you, making it the ideal daytime strain. When you first smoke it, you might feel a deep sense of well-being. Over time, the high can create lots of laughter. It’s like getting a double dose of medicine — cannabis and laughter. These are two of the best natural remedies around.
Growing info
You can grow Jack Herer indoors or outdoors. However, you’ll produce better quality buds outdoors if you live in an area with warm fall weather. Temperatures between 70 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit, such as the Mediterranean climate, are ideal. These plants grow bushy and like to stretch, so make sure you leave enough space between them. Since this is a Sativa-dominant strain it can be vulnerable to overfeeding. Keep a close eye on this. Finally, the flowering time of this strain is anywhere from 10 to 12 weeks and it can yield up to 500 grams per M2.
Appearance and Aroma
The appearance of Jack Herer during the growing stages looks like a sea of forest green colors. Its skunky and earthy smells take you right to the heart of nature. The aroma brings you back to wild fields of cannabis plants. When the buds dry and cure, they have lots of frosty resin the shine under the light. They’re also covered in orange hairs with sugar leaves the color of sage.
MSNL Editors Verdict
This well-known and admired strain has all the characteristics of a high-quality cannabis strain. Its lovely appearance and spicy peppery flavours combine with potent effects that leave users ‘over the moon’ with elation and joy. What’s not to love about that?

The taste of Jack Herer closely aligns with its aroma. When you smell the bud in your hand it has a citrusy, yet skunky smell. Break it apart or grind it up and the smell penetrates the room. Take your first hit and experience the spicy and woodsy flavours. Then, upon your exhale you’ll get notes of vinegar, mustard, and pepper.

"undetermined"
Review by gail
Shipping was quick and stealthy. Seeda were small and only 3 actually germinated which is very disappointing especially if I don't even end up with a female.( I had similar results with Mango strain 10 seeds 8 duds :( .On a bright note all GWS along with 8 nitro lemon Haze, 3 Crystal, 2 Mango, and the 3 Jacks are going strong.) I'll update this review after flash and again after harvest.

"Very giggly, very happy"
Review by Nicholas
This is my favorite kind of weed, the kind that makes you happy and giggly with very little lazy feeling. Plus it has a great earthy smell and kind of a vinegary taste that's very different and quite nice.
