All future hits of weed will pale in comparison to the bong hits of this primo Super Jack I just partook of. Was hooked on the first smell upon opening the bag. Super Jack gives a very uppity kinda high and my dog is running around trying to mount everything in sight. May need a few hits of the Skywalker Kush just to be able to sleep tonight. God bless Super Jack yo!

My favorite Sativa! I am more an indica guy but if I want a sativa you cannot beat it. There are so many Jack crosses, but none IMO are as good as the original Jack. Unique cerebral high.

@rastaman, Jack Herer did not create this strain, I believe it was Sensi Seeds but they named it after him.

I just had a medical harvest that included Blue Mystic, Purple #1, and Jack Herer. I researched that JH has several pheno's and 2 were sativa and one was indica. You can believe my when I tell you that this was DEFINATELY indica dom. She only yielded approx 1.5 oz with both my others more than doubling her. However, i can honestly say that it is by far the narliest, dankest, stinkiest bud I have ever indulged in. You light up one joint and your house smells like a lemony/purp euphoric haze. It is the tastiest smoke I have ever had, and even the blue mystic, which packs a wallop had nothing similar to offer. For those who are serious patients and growers who need serious medicine to help their condition, JH is the plant for you!!!! P.S. The high is unique in that it is extremely happy, energetic, and it is without a doubt an aphrodisiac, so be careful and enjoy!

I love the jack I got from CVC, this is some killer sativa. The kinda stuff you wanna hit if your going to go to the beach or do a little bit of walking. Great weed for hiking, or just getting you going around your house during the day. If your local club gets some good jack, hop on it!

Jack Herer is definitely on my list of favorites, and currently in my garden; she was the first strain and my first clone to begin my garden so she holds a special place in my heart of garden. Since I didn't know much in cultivation when I got Jack Herer, she has gone through some stress but has survived and slowly flowering; I am patiently waiting for her to grow to her fullest. (pictures soon to follow)

A classic strain made by a classic stoner hero. This is a very fine sativa, with a good legacy. You may need to smoke a lot of it, but it's high is wonderful, relaxing and full of insight. It doesn't usually look like much, though, so you may have a hard time selling it.

True Jack H is a beautiful thing. It's one of those strains that has a very unique, spicy/fruity aroma and the buds have nice round budlets. The buds are big, puffy and airy and the high is like a triple espresso with a shot of Jack D. Very energetic. I've been growing JH for two years and a Jack/G13 cross alongside them. The G13 cross is a beautiful bud, just like Jack but with twice the crystals. The cross is always the first to flower and finishes quickly so I'd think the G13 is dominant but the high seems more Jacklike. I bought the clone from Oaksterdam two years ago and would recommend it to anyone. My patients love it.

Jack Herer is a classic. It makes a perfect daytime smoke. Its psychoactive properties are such that you will feel relaxed and clear headed. The taste is nice and piny. This is not the smoke you want if you are looking to get 'really faded' or for symptoms such as nausea and body pain. A nice sunny afternoon, get some work done kind of a flower.

ah the good ol' Jack Herer strain...lol this is some TOP shelf bud right here people...the taste was a tangy kinda shocking taste with the smell to match. i loaded one bowl that not only lasted me a little bit, but it took me to the couch and left me there lol. and as for the texture, oh man. have you ever had the kinda bud where it was crispy and EASY to break up but was still pretty sticky? AND it still hit hard as hell? no? well that is what this bud can do...

Jack Herer is one of the most popular strains around. Being a cross between Skunk, Haze and Norhtern Lights I can understand why it has such a tastey flavor and enduring high. I usually get this strain when unsure of what to get at new dispensaries. Gives an upbeat euphoric effect and it's no wonder it has been a 7 time cannabis cup winner.

The Jack Herer strain has nice solid crystalline buds with a flavorful and unique fragrance. It has a very smooth, clean, wonderful taste. It seems to be a best selling favorite at most dispensaries. It is nice to smoke during the day without any undue drowsiness. It delivers a great long lasting high while relieving any chronic pain.

Jack Herer is favored amongst many, undoubtedly it is no suprise having won the cannabis cup numerous times. I like the taste but often times Jack Herer does not have the most dense of buds. The smell is pungent and can easily be seen to have traits of sativa dominance such as having lighter green buds and also appearing to be gleaming with thc crystals. I have to say, it has a great taste but I have found it to be a bit more harsh than other sativas. It often leaves me medicated and its nice because I feel comfortable smoking this during the day.

Jack Herer is a cross strain between Skunk #1, Northern Lights #5 and Haze, and carried the best of each of the strains with it. This is an incredibly potent strain or medical marijuana and because of that it is a perfect med for patients.Very often a great looking flower, accept no substitutes. The Jack Herer at any respectable clinic or medical marijuana dispensary should have a very distinct look. The smell is very strong and also distinct, as you can see in the picture on the left, the Jack Herrer strain is primarily green and white.Very smooth smoke, and an amazing taste. It is really easy to see why this is such a popular strain, Jack Herrer is definitely one of the best available on the medical market today.Jack Herrer is possibly right now the highest reviewed medical marijuana strain… this is not only because it medicates so well, but also has some of the smoothest tasting and best smelling medications available right now

Jack Herer is a strain that can easily become one of your favorites for a long time. The smell is a bit sour that really makes it appealing from the get-go. The look is a very dense in each bud and doesn't disappoint in the looks department.
The taste is also very solid but the best part of the strain has to be the high it gives you. The high is a little bit of an upper and really gives you a good feeling for the rest of the day. If medicating is about how good the medication can be, this is a prime example of an premier strain

Jack Herer has a classic woodsy smell and tastes like inhaling the scent of a pine tree. It is a great upper high, perfect with a glass of orange juice and some tea in the morning.

KRONZ | Jan 12, 2011

Strong, heavy in the head . It tastes very earthy, spicy. This high hits you fast and strong and lasts.

Definatly another strain that has been perfected. A very sustained and controlled high. Just makes you feel great and energizes you for the day.
