If I was stuck on an island with but a single strain for which to grow and smoke from, that would be Jack Herer. It's an awesome daytime medicine but be advised, if you take too much (even if you smoke every day like me) it'll leave you on your ass like I am right now. This strain is every thing they say it is except Jesus Christ. Ok guys? Jack Herer is NOT Jesus. Ok, that's settled. Really though, it's great.
As far as the grow, I hear it grows awesome, or something... I've no idea. BUT, whatever the trouble, this strain is wellllll worth it! Thick indica like with sativa effects.
Woody, piney smell almost like a beard oil. Love it. By smelling it and watching a picture of who Jack Herer was, you can imagine him smoking his herb out of a wooden pipe, sitting on his favorite couch with a lamp near him and a library full of great books to read from. Even if you had absolutely no idea who this guy was prior to smoking the glorious herb bearing his name.
Anyways, give this one a solid try. Look. I've said it before. What can I say. Jack Herer might well be my all time #1 strain for treating fatigue, depression, ADD and minor anxiety (as well as pain, although I haven't used it for that specifically). This strain has a solid medicinal reputation, if only it was thrown to patients as easy as opioids are...
