We have the 'love & hate' relationship, me and Jack. It's a legendary strain and when you smoke it, you just know this is some oldschool, powerful stuff. The era of weed when each strain had it's own, unique effects. But let's start with it's smell and taste. The smell is and always will be an absolute abomination. It smells like old rotting herbs lying in Skunk's funk. It makes you almost dizzy how powerful is that smell. The taste is not THAT horrible... but it's still not very good hahah let's be honest. It tastes like if someone made a joint of earth, herbs and skunk's musk. Now the effects! Jack is very "sunshine-y" you feel like your mind is opened to some greater knowledge. Very cerebral. Like the windows to your head would be opened after some long time. Could be almost psychedelic, unique and I really wouldn't recommend it to newbies. It makes your eyes and throat extremely dry and is not usable for pain-relieving purposes. It's an oldschool, powerful and UNIQUE strain which if you try once, you remember it forever. It's a window to a different times of weed.

I tried this strain as everyone was recommending it for chronic migraine and I’m glad I did. I use this to keep the constant pain under wraps a little bit. Then when it is really bad I use Grandi guava too which is a god send at reducing severe migraine pain. The bonus with Jack is that it also does wonders for my mental health, I have BPD, chronic anxiety and autism and this strain makes me feel almost “free”, I feel light and happy and giggly and relaxed which is a nice break from my chaotic mind

Good. Unique. Very clear minded. Wouldn’t say I’m focused (I still felt a bit stoned so to speak). But definitely better than most strains. Really uplifts. Perfect for the post work slump. Probably good for exercise.

Honestly one of my top 5 strains, great feeling compared to other sativa strains that just make you a bit too hyper or a bit too sluggish. This one is the perfect balance that I absolutely love.

One of my favorites. Cartridge from Redbud Roots. Very good for focus and socializing. I have adhd which makes it super hard to just sit down and watch a show or movie or play a game without checking my phone/doing something with my hands but this strain gets me locked in. Helps with anxiety and overthinking.

One of my favorite strains. Perfect for morning and daytime smoking. Definitely a super sativa and makes me not want to sit still! It’s the perfect strain for getting chores done around the house. Highly recommend to anyone who is a Sativa lover!

Was recommended this legend, and I typically don't like Sativa Hybrids because they can cause me to bug a bit, but this is deeeeeelightful. While I can't say I'm a fan of the smell, and the taste (for me) is generally a black pepper/earth flavor, the effects are sublime. A gentle lift, a burst of energy, and then it's just clear-headed, relaxed, calmness. Not stoney feeling, or locked at all. Great for reading, listening to music, cleaning, or really anything you just need to focus on. My new daytime favorite for when I can't find The Soap.
