Super Jack. Hands down. More for the smoke than the grow. Just a lucky JH backcross my buddy brought back from Germany.

By strain, I mean common pheno...to grow? To smoke?
I rock the J1, personally.
All my research says J1 is not a pheno of Jack Herer but Jack Herer X Skunk #1 which was created soon after JH was released. Best I can figure the J1 I was running quite a few years ago is a very old cut.

Hard to see how JH is not a great strain cause it's basically old lines of (NL#5 x Haze) x Skunk #1. Always thought a J1 S1 would produce some amazing phenos or crossing J1 with a pure Haze, or strong Haze, male would be very cool also.

Man I never saw J1 hermie run in a variety of rooms using dif nute regimens with different growers over years having gone through all kinds of abuse...never.

Super Jack sounds awesome as I'm a big JH fan having run JH pure, JH x JH by Willy Jack seeds and J1 :)

Many thanks to all! Yankee Grower, I appreciate that info very much. I believe it's the old favorite, sparkling and lemon lime like candy floor cleaner

I hear the buyers at clubs complain about too much Jack since his passing. Anyone else?
Also,
I thought there was a RIP Jack thread, but can't find it. Anyone have a link?
 
I have not been fortunate enough to try it yet; but, from my point of view, & friends' experiences, I think anything with JH is enough to fly with Flash Gordon, right?

Correct on the J1 Yankee. It's an awesome strain - good yields, smell, resin and easy to grow with a short (relatively flower time). J1 is one of the best day-time smokes I've ever had I'm sad I didn't get any cuttings off of it. It didn't bulk up or look like it was going to be worth anything until towards the end so I never took cuts in veg =/ If you are looking for a knockout or super potent smoke, though, look elsewhere (in regards to J1).
This was my first (solo) indoor grow. Pics of the J1:
About as thick as a soda can under 800W CMH.

It has that sparkling lemon lime candy thing going on in flower for me. Yeah it's an old favorite cause SubRob got legit J1 buds and clones from an un-named ICMag member...lol...and Sub will probably chime in here eventually. SubRob was with someone that cracked a jar of buds and Sub was like that's J1! LOL and this jar from a guy from Tahoe that supposedly had the cut for like 20 years.

As for the finished buds a bit more like over ripe bile, but in a good way, with sandalwood and spice notes and for sure the Haze definitely comes through especially on the smoke.

J1...which I first ran about 5 years ago...

It's not an elite but still very decent.
