Strain Reviews

Ready to hear what real people have to say about Sour Jack? We’ve gathered some reviews from real patients who have experienced this sativa strain firsthand. From the taste and aroma to the effects and overall experience, these reviews offer valuable insights into what makes Sour Jack such a beloved strain:

“This is incredible! I have to be careful with sativas as I’m prone to getting more anxiety, but not with this stuff. I just feel slightly euphoric, slightly energized, clear headed and very peaceful.”
“Very nice Sativa that kept me happy and uplifted for my day activities. The smell and taste was lemon/citrus and diesel (from parent Sour Diesel). The bud was a lighter green with fine trichomes and orange pistils. Enjoyed this Sativa and would say it is one of the better ones out there!”
“Hybrid of my two favorites… and it delivers.”
“Another Top strain of flower from Verano.”
“One of the best daytime [sativa strains]. Full function and good energy boost with no paranoia.”
“Really good, would buy again. Nice Trichomes on the bud.”
“Best of both worlds. Great Buzz.”
“Absolutely amazing combination of Jack Herer and Sour Diesel flavors. Nice and sour with lemon and floral flavors.”
“2 of the best ever together as one! Diesel and Jack! Need I say more! One of Verano’s best right now!”
“A very good new flower from Verano, crossing Jack Herer and Sour Diesel. Excellent taste, smell, and sativa buzz.”
“Sour Jack is a great morning sativa that I even use in afternoon hours if need be.”
“Being a fibromyalgia sufferer, I deal with a lot of pain and a lot of fatigue, day in and day out. This strain finally came to [local dispensaries] and it has helped with my fatigue a great deal [which allows me] to get through my workday.”
“Best strain I’ve found for nausea and vomiting. Very sad this strain is so rare. I get Sour Jack in whatever form I can find, I get more effective relief from nausea and vomiting from Jack than all the pharmaceutical antiemetics I ever used. No other strain can provide the relief and improved quality of life that Sour Jack has given me. Just hoping Jack makes it back [to my local dispensary] soon, I need that help.”
“A very mellow and relaxing smoke. It has me relaxed but at the same time hyper focused. I don’t feel any weight at all. It’s just a mellow and lovely smoke. When Joey Tribianni said, “How you doin’?” That’s my vibe right now; just super chill and free. This would be a good strain for anxious people like me. It slows everything down enough that I can focus on things and reflect in a metaphysical way. I have a new respect for the herb now and have peace in my mind. I recommend this herb to others looking for a glimpse into a different dimension.”

      "questions_1_answer": "Lime green buds with orange hairs are visual hallmarks of this powerful strain, but Sour Jack is much more than just a pretty flower. At first whiff, citrus fruit and diesel fuel aromas play off one another to create a totally unique terpene profile to delight the senses.

      "questions_2_question": "Is MÜV Sour Jack Strain an Indica or Sativa?",
      "_questions_2_question": "field_632ae305336793",
      "questions_2_answer": "Sour Jack is a sativa strain, but never judge a strain based on this label! The terms indica and sativa were introduced into scientific vernacular to  describe the physical appearance of the classes of cannabis plants. Sativa strains are known for their tall, lanky structure and thin leaves.\r\n<br><br>\r\nToday, the terms indica and sativa are used to describe effects. Sativa strains are often associated with cerebral, heady effects that can be energizing, uplifting, and even euphoric. They may also provide a boost to creativity and productivity. Sativa strains are reportedly less likely to produce the \"couch lock\" or sedative effects associated with indica strains.\r\n<br><br>\r\nAlways remember that, even if a strain says it’s a sativa, it may not produce the effects you associate with the term. For example, this writer almost immediately falls asleep after using Sour Jack.",

      "_questions_3_question": "field_632ae305336793",
      "questions_3_answer": "Sour Jack boasts two incredibly beloved and well-known parents: Jack Herer and Sour Diesel.\r\n<br><br>\r\nJack Herer is a beloved sativa-dominant strain named after the famous cannabis activist and author. Herer’s 1985 book, “The Emperor Wears No Clothes,” is a key piece of the literary canon surrounding the dual struggles to legalize and destigmatize cannabis. The signature cannabis strain named after Herer is an achievement in boutique cannabis cultivation, being itself a cross between Shiva Skunk, Northern Lights #5, and an unknown Haze hybrid.\r\n<br><br>\r\nIt is known for its uplifting and energizing effects, making it a favorite choice for creative and social pursuits. It has a clean yet spicy aroma reminiscent of pine with a classic cannabis flavor profile that hits all the expected earthy and herby notes.\r\n<br><br>\r\nSour Diesel is also a potent, sativa-dominant strain. This one gets its name from its unique, fuel-like aroma and sour citrus flavor notes. Sour Diesel’s origins are a topic of some debate within the cannabis community, but most authorities believe it to be a cross involving the popular strains Chemdawg, Northern Lights, and Skunk #1.",

Here are some key details about these two top terps:\r\n\r\n<br><br>\r\n<strong>Limonene:</strong>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li><strong><em>1</em></strong>. Limonene is commonly found in citrus fruits and is responsible for their characteristic zesty aroma.</li>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<em><strong>2.</strong></em> Limonene has been found to have anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, antioxidant, lipophilic (able to cross the blood-brain barrier), and gastroprotective effects, among other potential health benefits.</li>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<em><strong>3.</strong></em> Limonene is also believed to have a calming effect, making it useful for reducing anxiety and helping with mood disorders.</li>\r\n \t<li>\r\n<strong><em>4.</em></strong> Limonene may also enhance the absorption of other terpenes and cannabinoids by helping them cross the blood-brain barrier more easily.</li>\r\n \t<li></li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<br><br>\r\n<strong>Pinene:</strong>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li><em><strong>1.</strong></em> Pinene is found in pine trees and is responsible for the signature scent you notice while walking through coniferous forests or Christmas tree farms.\r\n<strong></li>\r\n \t<li>2.</strong> Pinene has been found to have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties and can function as a natural bronchodilator – an agent that works to widen airways.\r\n<strong><em></li>\r\n \t<li>3.</em></strong> Pinene may also be useful for improving focus and memory.</li>\r\n</ol>",

Daily therapeutic cannabis patients may find that the calming properties of the strain can help alleviate stress, especially a couple hours after dosing, as the initial creative, energetic burst mellows tapers off into a more subdued and relaxing vibe.\r\n<br><br>\r\nPatients report medicinal effects like relief from fatigue and chronic pain. Others use Sour Jack for antiemetic purposes, relieving nausea and vomiting sometimes associated with cancer treatment.
