What is Jack Herer

Jack Herer, also known as “JH,” “The Jack,” “Premium Jack,” and “Platinum Jack” is a sativa-dominant marijuana strain that has gained as much renown as its namesake, the marijuana activist and author of The Emperor Wears No Clothes. Combining a Haze hybrid with a Northern Lights #5 and Shiva Skunk 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 phenotype bearing its own unique features and effects. Customer reviewers tell us that Jack Herer’s effects include feeling energetic, creative, and uplifted. 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 has taken home numerous awards for its quality and potency.

Jack Herer, also known as “The Jack,” “JH,” “Premium Jack” or “Platinum Jack” is a sativa dominant hybrid strain (80% sativa/20% indica) created through crossing the classic Haze X (Northern Lights #5 X Shiva Skunk) strains. One of the most famous buds on the planet, Jack Herer packs a lifted and energizing high that’s perfect for a day when you need a little extra oomph to get up and moving.

You’ll feel the effects hit you almost as soon as you exhale, filling your brain with a lifted sense of clear-headed euphoria and motivation that’s accented by a boost in creativity and focus. You’ll find that conversations come easily in this state as you’re inspired to talk about anything and everything from philosophy to your favorite foods.

Combined with its high 15-24% average THC level, these effects make Jack Herer a great choice for treating chronic stress or anxiety, depression, headaches or migraines and chronic fatigue. This bud has a sweet and sour citrusy lemon flavor with a woody pine exhale. The aroma is said to be like Pine-Sol, with a lemony pine overtone accented by earthy herbs and spicy flowers.

Jack Herer buds have oversized pepper-shaped bright neon green nugs with golden undertones, thick orange hairs and a coating of frosty golden-amber crystal trichomes.
