Just Jack
Also known as: Jack Herer Phenotype
Just Jack Strain Overview
Just Jack is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that represents a specific phenotype selection from the legendary Jack Herer strain. This particular expression was developed by breeders seeking to emphasize the uplifting, cerebral qualities of the original while maintaining its distinctive aromatic profile. The strain is named as a tribute to its direct lineage from Jack Herer, honoring both the cannabis activist and the foundational genetics that created this popular variety.
Visually, Just Jack typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a classic sativa structure—elongated, somewhat fluffy flowers with vibrant orange pistils weaving through forest green calyxes. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance. The strain is particularly noted for its pungent aroma that combines sharp citrus notes with earthy, piney undertones and a hint of spicy pepper, creating a complex sensory experience that many users find immediately recognizable.
Just Jack has gained popularity among sativa enthusiasts for its consistent effects profile and reliable performance. While not as widely documented as its parent strain, this phenotype has developed its own following in cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate clear-headed, energetic effects without excessive anxiety. The strain's balanced terpene profile contributes to both its distinctive flavor and its reported therapeutic benefits.

Just Jack Strain Growing Information
Just Jack is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 9-11 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors and responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods indoors. Plants tend to stretch significantly during the flowering phase, often reaching heights of 150-200 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training are recommended to manage height and improve light penetration. Just Jack is relatively resistant to common molds and pests but requires good air circulation due to its dense bud structure.
