Original Herer Autoflowering
Also known as: Auto Herer, Jack Herer Autoflower
Original Herer Autoflowering Strain Overview
Original Herer Autoflowering is an autoflowering variant of the legendary Jack Herer strain, developed to retain the classic sativa-dominant characteristics while incorporating the convenience of automatic flowering genetics. This strain pays homage to the cannabis activist and author Jack Herer, whose 1985 book 'The Emperor Wears No Clothes' became a foundational text in the cannabis legalization movement. The autoflowering version was created by crossing the original Jack Herer genetics with ruderalis varieties to introduce the autoflowering trait while preserving the distinctive terpene profile and effects of the parent strain.
The plant exhibits typical sativa characteristics with elongated, slender leaves and a structure that tends to be more open and airy than indica varieties. The buds are dense and resinous, often displaying a frosty coating of trichomes that gives them a shimmering appearance. Coloration typically ranges from deep forest green to lime green, with occasional purple hues appearing in cooler temperatures. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating a visually striking contrast against the green background.
Notable features include its relatively short life cycle (typically 10-12 weeks from seed to harvest) and its ability to flower automatically regardless of light cycles, making it particularly suitable for novice growers or those seeking a low-maintenance cultivation experience. Despite its autoflowering nature, this strain maintains the cerebral, uplifting effects that made the original Jack Herer famous among cannabis enthusiasts worldwide.

Original Herer Autoflowering is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced growers. The flowering time is approximately 8-10 weeks from seed, with a total life cycle of 10-12 weeks.
