Apple Jack is a hybrid marijuana strain made by crossing Jack Herer and White Widow. This potent strain provides uplifting and soothing effects. Apple Jack is ideal for medical marijuana patients and consumers managing chronic pain or nausea. This strain features a flavor profile that is skunky and earthy with undertones of sliced apple.

About this Hybrid Strain

Most cannabis plants get their names from some inherent quality they possess. Apple Jack is no different: its buds smell like freshly sliced apples picked from grandma’s backyard.

This one’s a near perfect hybrid, with genetics that straddle the 50/50 line between sativa and indica dominance. Its THC content usually hovers over the 20% mark, and it strikes a nice balance between the cerebral qualities expected from a sativa while also conferring the body high characteristic of an indica. CBD levels usually come in around 0.1%.

Apple Jack is an excellent strain for those looking to elevate while remaining functional. Its high is both cognitively stimulating while also relaxing, so those seeking a creative kick may want to try out this strain. The high affects happy thoughts and can lead to some long, talkative smoking sessions. The body high is somewhat tingly and electrifying, so it’s best to save this one for social use rather than for strict medical applications. However, the body buzz may be sufficient for some minor pain relief.

Side effects include drowsiness, which can prove antithetical to smoking with friends.

Lab Data

History

A cross of Jack Herer and White Widow, this strain’s lineage lives up to the namesakes of his legendary parents.

Hybrid – 50% Sativa /50% Indica

THC: 20%

Apple Jack is a sativa-dominant hybrid created by crossing the famed Jack Herer sativa with White Widow, an equally notorious hybrid. The result is fairly potent, with THC levels that can top 20%. The exact balance of sativa to indica is unknown, but sativa makes up at least 70% of its genes. Even so, Apple Jack delivers a mix of head and body effects, with a calming physical buzz and a euphoric cerebral sensation. The high is focused and creative, great for relieving stress. This strain is good for treating muscle spasms, chronic pain, and anxiety, as well as depression and other mood disorders. CBD levels are low, only about 0.1%, so this isn’t a good choice for epileptics or other patients whose symptoms respond to CBD. Apple Jack has a sweet fruity flavor to go with its name, as well as a sweet but pungent earthy aroma. This strain isn’t widely available, so there’s no real data on its negative effects. For that matter, it’s hard to say where this unique strain can be found, though it’s probably sold on Western legal markets.

About Apple Jack

Apple Jack, as you might expect, is a really tasty bud that offers more than just a clever name and glossy exterior. This energetic bud is brought to us by Seedism Seeds, one of the top Dutch breeders and highly sought after cultivators in the Netherlands. The blend of Jack Herer and White Widow make this strain of notoriously potent genes an undoubtedly dynamic high.

Though the THC on this isn’t particularly high, the perfect balance between sativa and indica make it a desirable strain for its otherworldly effects. The flavors are as the name would suggest: fruity and earthy with tart and sweet apple zest. The aromas are peppered with apple and sugar, but are overtaken by pungent earth. The buds are dense and green with golden and red undertones.

This is one of those buds that is intensely focused, so if you have a project you’ve been meaning to finish or a to-do list looming overhead, now is the time. These buds go down smooth and will have you feeling that heady cerebral rush after just one hit. The burst of energy that washes over you will have all of your creative cylinders firing, making it a perfect daytime bud. The full body relaxation, as indicas typically provide, only compliment the stellar sativa buzz you feel from head to toe.

For anyone who suffers from mood or attention disorders such as stress, depression, bipolar, or ADHD, this strain offers you the ability to streamline your thoughts and let negativity fall by the wayside. You’ll feel uplifted, yet relaxed, making it ideal for symptoms of the above ailments. Because of its highly energetic nature, this is a great strain for anyone suffering from chronic fatigue or clinical exhaustion. The CBD levels of this strain are almost too low to measure and therefore it is not recommended for anyone who requires CBD for treatment.

The only downside to this strain is that it is difficult to come by. As a result, there is very little grow information available. There are a few other strains of the same or similar name that may throw off the search, but exact recommendations and tips are scarce, if any.

Dutch folks usually know what they are talking about when it comes to marijuana, and we’re inclined to trust a country who made weed an art form long before most countries were even allowed to grow it. This tasty strain has uniquely enticing qualities that benefit everyone from artists to office managers and everyone in between. Enjoy this bud first thing in the morning for a little pep in your step or at midday to get through a slump.
