What is the Family Values strain?

Family Values is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and creamy and earthy flavor profile.

Family Values is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by the renowned breeder Exotic Genetix. The strain was created by crossing the popular strains Cookies and Cream with The Menthol, resulting in a genetic profile that combines desirable traits from both parent lines. First introduced to the cannabis market in the mid-2010s, Family Values quickly gained recognition among connoisseurs for its complex flavor profile and well-rounded effects. The strain's name reflects its genetic heritage and the careful breeding process that brought together these complementary varieties.

The plant typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, chunky structure characteristic of its Cookie lineage. The flowers display a striking appearance with deep forest green coloration accented by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of milky white trichomes. The leaves often show subtle purple hues when grown in cooler temperatures, adding to the visual appeal. The buds are known for their resinous quality, making them popular among extract artists for producing high-quality concentrates.

Family Values is particularly noted for its complex aromatic profile that evolves throughout the cultivation and curing process. The strain exhibits a unique combination of sweet, creamy notes inherited from Cookies and Cream with refreshing, minty undertones from The Menthol parent. This distinctive flavor combination, along with its balanced effects, has made Family Values a sought-after strain in both medical and recreational cannabis markets. While not as widely available as some mainstream hybrids, it maintains a dedicated following among enthusiasts who appreciate its nuanced characteristics.

How do you grow Family Values?

Family Values is considered a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for intermediate to advanced growers. The plants typically have a flowering time of 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors that influence the expression of its unique terpene profile.

Indoor plants usually reach a medium height of 3-4 feet, while outdoor plants can grow taller, reaching 5-6 feet under optimal conditions. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yield and promote even canopy development. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers typically harvesting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot, and outdoor plants producing 16-20 ounces per plant in favorable conditions.

Special considerations include maintaining stable temperature and humidity levels, as the dense buds can be susceptible to mold in overly humid environments. The plants benefit from good air circulation and proper spacing to prevent moisture buildup. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers noting that the strain responds well to slightly reduced feeding during the final weeks of flowering to enhance flavor development. Regular monitoring for pests is recommended, as with most cannabis cultivars.
