About Galactic Jack
Galactic Jack is a sativa that crosses Jack Herer with Space Queen. It combines one of the most famous sativas ever bred with a spacey, fruity hybrid, and it has found a following on legal shelves in Canada as well as in some US markets.
The aroma is bright citrus and fresh pine with a sweet, fruity undertone from the Space Queen side. Buds tend to be medium sized and slightly airy, with light green leaves and a generous layer of trichomes. Terpinolene often adds a lively, fresh character, pinene can bring the crisp pine note, and myrcene may contribute a soft, fruity sweetness.
Galactic Jack is commonly described as energetic, creative and uplifted. People often choose it during the day, when they want a clear, active mood for projects, chores or brainstorming. THC usually ranges from 17% to 23%, with little CBD.
Daytime consumers who like Jack Herer and other bright sativas may enjoy Galactic Jack, though people sensitive to racy strains should be careful. Start low, go slow, and check the lab results on the package before you buy. Use WhereLeaf to find Galactic Jack at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you.
