Further classification

Jack Herer × Haze gives Jack Herer a clearly traceable genetic direction. Haze is also named as an additional genetic influence. The focus is an active effect with energetic, creative and mood-enhancing qualities. Aromatically, it moves between piney, spicy-herbal, woody and skunky. Jack Herer reaches a clear, potent level of up to 22 % THC. With up to 1 %, CBD remains only a secondary element in Jack Herer’s profile. As a result, Jack Herer remains aromatically closer to classic strain profiles than to modern dessert or exotic profiles. Terpinolene, Caryophyllene and Pinene provide additional clues as to why the aroma profile is not defined solely by individual flavour notes.

At the same time, the lines mentioned give Jack Herer a brighter, more cerebral component. Jack Herer’s potent cannabinoid profile complements its other characteristics but does not replace them.
