Where Jack Herer comes from
Jack Herer was bred by Sensi Seeds in the 1990s from Haze and a Northern Lights #5 × Shiva Skunk cross, and named after the cannabis activist. A daytime sativa that people have been reaching for for thirty years.
AltSol (Alternative Solutions) grows in the District and supplies most of our flower and the Good Night / Great Day pre-roll packs. Consistent jars, honest lab sheets, and a house style that leans gassy. More on the grower at altsol.co.
When to use it
A daytime strain. Good before doing something, less good before trying to sleep.

Jack Herer strain terpenes and aroma
In the Jack Herer strain total terpenes leads at 3.00%, out of 3.00% total terpenes. Total terpenes, myrcene and caryophyllene make up most of what you'll smell.
- Total Terpenes 3.00% Smells like:
- Beta Myrcene 0.27% Smells like: earthy, musk, cloves Mango, hops and thyme all carry myrcene. In flower it reads as that damp, musky smell you get when you first open the jar.
- Beta Caryophyllene 0.25% Smells like: sharp, spice, sweet, wood That spicy, almost woody edge behind the fuel smell is usually caryophyllene.
- Limonene 0.22% Smells like: citrus, lemon, herbal Limonene shows up in most citrus-smelling strains. People tend to describe those as lifting rather than sedating.
- Beta Pinene 0.13% Smells like: woody, pine Pinene smells like pine trees, which is not a coincidence: it is the most common terpene in nature. People often describe pinene-forward strains as clearer-headed.
Terpene percentages are from the current batch's certificate of analysis. Our guides explain how to read one and why the total matters more than the THC.
