Seb's take
Jack Herer crossed with White Widow into a vigorous, mainly Indica plant that piles on resin-covered buds without much persuasion. Sweet mango and citrus meet pungent earth on the nose; the high runs happy, uplifted and creative, energetic enough to keep you moving. A generous cross, in both senses.
Where it comes from
Jack Herer crossed with White Widow, from Seedmakers, a pairing seen often enough across breeders, and for good reason. The record calls this one mainly indica, which tilts the balance toward body and resin while keeping Jack Herer's brightness in the nose. Two famous parents, and a vigorous plant to show for them.
Nose & flavour
Sweet mango and citrus lift over a pungent, earthy base, a fruit-forward nose with real depth behind it. White Widow's resin lends the pungency; Jack Herer the zest. A generous profile, and not a quiet one. The mango is the first thing you notice.
The high
Happy, uplifted and euphoric, with enough creative energy to keep you moving rather than settled. For a mainly indica plant she runs livelier than expected, the Jack Herer side asserting itself. At eighteen per cent THC, an approachable, cheerful high suited to daytime.
Growing it
She flowers in sixty-five days and grows vigorously, piling on big buds heavily coated in resin, which will gum up your scissors before the trimming is done. No yield or height figure is recorded, so let the vigour guide your spacing and support. A generous cross in both senses, and undemanding for the return she gives. Keep your blades clean, as you were taught.
