I'd appreciate some input on my Sannie Purchase

So, I just ordered the sugarpunch with the jackberryXMad Scientist freebie. I'm going to make a second purchase and I know I want the Caramel cough and the Silverfields, My question is... I'm on the fence on which to try the Extrema or the Sannie Jack.
what are your guys' thoughts on that. I'm leaning towards the Extrema, but I do love the Jack...
Just your opinions, don't worry about MY tastes. I've been growing the REG Jack Herer (a really frosty version) for years, so I'm hesitant to try another Jack, if it's not hands down much better than the one I have. I'm thinking the "chemistry" as the freebie on that order.

Sannie's Jack takes too long, not that special. Quite a few growers in the local dutch grow forum owned by Sannie reported getting hermies from Extrema. If I remember correctly their won't be a new batch because of that but don't pin me down on that.

Good choice on the Sugar Punch, loved that one.

I've seen stellar reports on Sannies Jack. I like Jack in my mix. I plan on getting some. I've run Extrema and I found a really great chem dominant phenotype. Really skunky and fuely. Nice mellow indica buzz with some initial pop to the head. I don't love indicas but you can find nice plants in those seeds. Some will be better than others. I had some other more hybrid typical plants that were good too, but I really liked the chem dominant the most.

No herms, even though I had light stress and had other plants herm on me. Chem is known to have issues with hermaphrodism so keep it in mind. So do a lot of OG's and Diesels though. Trainwreck etc. YOu just have to really baby them. Although the plants I found were pretty robust. No issues cloning or anything either which is a problem with straight Herijuana.

I'm sure the Jack and the Extrema have significantly different buzzes though, so I'd consider what kind of buzz you like best. Then decide based on that. Anesthesia is a really good cross with Herijuana as well. IMO the plants I got from it were slightly better than anything I got from my Extrema although they were only done outdoors. Harvested earlier in the window and it was a bit more heady, which is probably why I liked it more. Might become more sedative I suppose if gone longer. People liked it a lot, especially considering it was done OD @ the 49th.

Caramel Cough I am going to pick up a few packs of, I accidentally killed a pack of them being forgetful (you need to keep seedlings watered, but more importantly you need to remember you popped them in the first place doh).
It's pretty high on my list of to trys. Hoping for a really Cough dominant phenotype.

Thank you both for your information, I was curious about the sannie jack, but the Jack I have is so special and it finishes in about 60 to 65 days, super crusty and easy to trim, no to mention that juicy-fruit jack taste so I wasn't sure about spending 60 bucks to try and upgrade (felt like cheating on a hot girlfriend to me), but thesanniejack flowers look incredible....SO typical sativa.
I'm a rare guy that actually welcomes hermies, That's A-ok with me! I have no problems with F1 hybrid female seeds, well assuming its just a couple bananas...
I am very grateful for both of your input, in about 4-5 months i'll let you guys see some pics.
Oh, if anyone is curious, my mainstays, are Grapegod, Blue Dream, Jack Herer, Cheesequake,& Agent Orange. My goal is to have eight mother "keeper strains" and rotate crops of 12 plants, with four strains a harvest, rotating the three sets of strains, the trick is finding strains that grow somewhat similar. if anyone is wondering it's a 2/1 ratio of 600w Hps and MH, three lamps (total 1800 W), purely 100% organic amended soil (vermifire as a base) and feed typically no more than four times in it's life, but granted I heavily amend the soil with alpaca manure, fish bone meal, earthworm castings, etc, etc, etc.
Obviously having never grown these I may need to feed a lil more, we'll see.

This is the information I was looking for, thank you. Quite useful.

At 60-65 days it would be an easy choice but Sannie's Jack's listed flowering time is 10-13 weeks, and in reality takes 11-14 weeks. Good stuff but not special enough to warrant the long flowering period.

precisely my thoughts as well, but if someone here said that those enormous nugs are absolutely mindblowing, then I may have had to try it, but you guys have helped me make my decision. Caramel cough, silverfields, and the Extremait is, and hopefully between those and the sugarpunch, there are two or three keeper moms. Maybe i'm picky but the last two years I haven't found anything worthwhile... well, I take that back, the Grapegod I found last year, and that's a killer plant..
