Candy Jack

Candy Jack is sold here as flower, named for a strain with Jack Herer on one side: Leafly pairs Jack Herer with Skunk #1, while AllBud pairs it with Cotton Candy. Leafly calls the strain mostly sativa, and AllBud lists a hybrid at 50% sativa and 50% indica.

Cannabis Cup wins and a Jack Herer side

Leafly says Candy Jack has a few Cannabis Cup wins and a strong reputation for potency, flavour and effects, and AllBud calls it a Cannabis Cup winner. Leafly credits the fragrant smell to the Skunk #1 parent and the creative, focused effects to the Jack Herer side of the family, and AllBud describes the Cotton Candy parent as sativa-dominant.

Terpinolene leads the terpene order

Terpinolene, which Leafly labels fruity, is the dominant terpene in Leafly Certified lab tests, followed by caryophyllene and pinene. Our terpinolene guide describes it as piney and floral.

Citrus, pine and candied lemon peel

Leafly’s flavour tags are citrus, sweet and pine, and it says the strain gives a quick lift in mood along with a sweet, citrus aroma. One reviewer describes a spicy, piney citrus nose over a sweet herbal base and a taste like candied piney lemon peel, and another calls it like Jack Herer with a sweeter, candy-like flavour.

AllBud tags the flavour as citrus, fruity, pine, skunky and sweet, and for aroma it tags candy, diesel, lemon, sour and sweet. Its text describes an earthy aroma and a sweet flavour with hints of citrus.

Energetic, focused and creative in the reports

Leafly users most often tag Candy Jack as energetic, focused and creative, and Leafly’s effect meter reads mostly energizing. AllBud describes a peppy, energetic and cerebral high with creativity, a shot of euphoria and sharp mental focus, and its tags are creative, focus, happy, relaxing and sociable.

The THC figures Leafly and AllBud report

On Leafly the THC figure is 19% alongside 1% CBG, a potency it reads as above average, while AllBud says THC can reach 27% and gives CBD as under 1%, with CBN at 1% in its header. Leafly rates the strain 4.4 from 288 ratings, and AllBud rates it 4.3 from 17 votes and 14 reviews.

Set beside AllBud’s 27%, Health Canada‘s starting guidance for anyone who smokes or vapes reads very differently: start small, one or two puffs from a product holding 10% THC or less.
