Seb's take
Named for Jack Herer, the activist, and bred to keep his complex, peppered spice intact in autoflowering form. The high stays true to the photoperiod original too — relaxed, energetic, creative rather than sedating. She tops out at a modest 80cm, resinous throughout, and forgiving of a small grow tent.
Where it comes from
Jack Herer is the whole inheritance here, crossed with ruderalis to bring it into autoflowering form. The original was named for the activist and author of the same name, a genuine homage rather than a marketing flourish, and this version sets out to keep his plant's complex, spiced character intact while trading the photoperiod schedule for an automatic one. The ruderalis asks for none of the limelight; it simply lets a classic flower on its own clock.
Nose & flavour
Spice and pepper lead, in the complex, layered manner the Jack Herer name is known for, warm and savoury rather than sweet, with a depth that keeps you returning to it. Not a loud strain, but a considered one, the nose rewarding a little attention. True to the original in the ways that matter.
The high
Faithful to the photoperiod original, relaxed, but with an energetic, creative streak running through rather than any sedation. At 16% THC it is bright and workable, the sort of lift that suits a busy afternoon and leaves the mind loose enough to make something of it. Motivating company, in a word.
Growing it
A tidy plant for a tight space. She tops out at just 80cm, small even by autoflower standards, while still yielding as generously as her sisters, 350 to 400 g/m² over a 49 to 56 day flower. The buds are leafy but thoroughly coated in resin, and helpfully her trichomes and pistils tend to ripen in step, which takes some of the guesswork out of timing the harvest. At 16% THC, a forgiving grow for a modest tent.
