Video thumbnail for the history of the Jack Herer strain from the 1990s

The 90s strain named after a legend, that became one

Few strains carry a name with this much weight. Jack Herer, the 90s classic named after the author and activist, went on to collect more competition awards than any other sativa of its era, turning the strain and its name into a double legacy. The video above tells the story of the strain and the history behind the name.

Why awards are only as good as the genetics

Trophies are decided once, in a moment. A strain's real reputation is decided over and over again, every time a grower works with the line and it behaves the way the legend says it should. That consistency is not produced by awards; it is produced by genetics being kept true.

Keeping lines true is the entire idea behind CloneBuzzz Genetics. Verified living clones carry a strain's genuine character intact from grower to grower, so that what a famous name promises is what the plant actually delivers. The genetics, not the trophies, are what make a legacy last.
