Jack Kush
Also known as: Jack OG, Jack Herer OG
What is the Jack Kush strain?
Jack Kush is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Jack Kush is a well-balanced hybrid cannabis strain that emerges from the crossing of two legendary genetics: Jack Herer and either OG Kush or Master Kush, depending on the breeder variation. This strain is typically described as a sativa-dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) that combines the uplifting cerebral effects of Jack Herer with the mellow, relaxing qualities of its Kush parentage. The strain averages around 19% THC content, making it a moderately potent option suitable for both recreational and medicinal users. Jack Kush produces dense, medium-sized buds covered in a frosty layer of trichomes, with small thick dense lime green and dark olive green nugs with reddish brown undertones and thick furry neon green hairs. The strain has gained recognition for its ability to provide two separate highs - one from its OG Kush parentage that leaves users feeling mellow and carefree, and another from its Jack Herer parentage that promotes clear-headed productivity. While multiple breeders have created versions of Jack Kush with slightly different genetics, most maintain the core characteristics of combining Jack Herer's energizing sativa effects with the relaxing indica properties of various Kush strains.
