How to grow Jock Horror Automatic
Taste
Seb's take
An autoflowering take on the Haze-Skunk-Northern Lights lines behind Jack Herer, and true to its name, she's frighteningly potent with a very intense odour. Tall and demanding indoors, she rewards topping and a sea-of-green setup with dense, resin-coated colas. Not a strain that keeps a low profile.
Where it comes from
Nirvana's automatic take on Jock Horror crosses it with Short Rider, folding an autoflowering habit into a plant modelled after Jack Herer. The lineage behind the name runs through Haze, Skunk and Northern Lights, the same sativa-dominant family, and true to that name, she is frighteningly potent. Short Rider brings the automatic timing; the rest is pure horror-show heritage. A faithful auto rendering of a loud original.
Nose & flavour
The record lists no specific tasting notes, so I shall not invent them, but it is candid on one point: a very intense odour. This is not a plant that keeps its presence to itself. The Haze and Skunk in the family tree seldom produce a wallflower. Expect something that fills the room and lingers; discretion is not among her virtues.
The high
Effects go unlisted, and I will not put words in the plant's mouth, but the record calls her frighteningly potent, with THC billed simply as high, and the sativa-dominant Jack Herer lineage points the way. Approach as you would a staircase in the dark, and let the potency introduce itself. The name is fair warning enough.
Growing it
An autoflower on the long side, reckon seventy-seven to ninety-one days, returning 350 to 400 g/m² of dense, resin-coated buds. The family runs tall and loud, so she rewards a Sea of Green and, where the timing allows, topping to keep the canopy even. The intense odour makes ventilation and odour control worth planning for indoors. Not the easiest auto to keep discreet, but a productive one for the grower willing to manage her.
