Family Jewels is a modern hybrid-sativa strain derived directly from Old Growth OG. Developed with a focus on high-performance cultivation, it thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a moderate difficulty level with this variety, which reaches maturity after a 55-day flowering period and is known for producing a high yield.
The chemical expression of Family Jewels is defined by a terpene profile led by terpinolene, followed by myrcene and caryophyllene. This combination shapes the strain's sensory identity, offering a nuanced aromatic and flavor profile consistent with its dominant terpene structure. Because this is a THC-dominant variety, it tests at approximately 22% THC with negligible levels of CBD.
Users of Family Jewels typically report effects that are creative, uplifted, and happy. Due to these characteristics, the strain is well-suited for activities requiring creativity, social engagement, or sharpened focus. While it serves as a distinct hybrid-sativa, there are currently no notable offspring recorded for this specific lineage.

Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
◈
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
△
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
