How
do you improve the best cannabis in the world? That was the big
question when working on a new strain from the illustrious Jack Herer
line. Since we’ve always had a particular love for Sativas, one thing
Sensi breeders really wanted to change was the myth that delicious,
cerebral, tropical strains were too difficult or low-yielding for the
average indoor grower. Actions speak louder than words, so creating a
Jack hybrid with all the growing advantages of a Skunk seemed the best
way to prove our point.
Jack Herer’s sublime gene-pool has been
refined, with desired traits reinforced largely through back-crossing.
Over multiple generations, our favourite Herer mother was infused with
a precise blend of Super Skunk and Haze, undergoing rigorous selection
and testing at every stage.
Jack Flash is the triumphant outcome
of that program — inbred with the bulk and vigour of her Afghani-Skunk
ancestors without sacrificing any of Herer’s sumptuous Haze high. In
isolating this particular balance of traits, the four common phenotypes
of Jack Herer are reduced to two recurring forms in Jack Flash,
representing the contrasting sides of her heritage. The Indica form is
compact enough for SOG, with rapid and highly distinctive bud
development. Calyxes swell to outrageous sizes, piling atop each other
to form resin-saturated ropes which build into multi-point crowns on
terminal buds.
The Sativa-dominant Jack Flash is astounding in
every way. Growers with space for medium-to-large plants should select
this phenotype as a mother,- her flavour, yield and mind-body potency
are virtually unparalleled. Significant height gain in flowering,
paired with the ability to completely fill out with solid, running,
Skunk-Haze bud means that best results are seen when Jack Flash’s
Sativa form is allowed to finish at 1m or taller.
While most
members of the Sensi family rate Northern Lights#5 x Haze or Jack Herer
as their all-time favourite ganja, Jack Flash is another serious
contender for the title and is steadily gaining ground on the two world
champion Sativas.
