The High Families

One of the core innovations in High IQ is the High Families — a classification system that groups strains into 6 families based on their terpene profiles and expected effects, going beyond the outdated “indica vs. sativa” labels:
FamilyCharacterPrimary Effects
Relaxing HighSedating body highCalm, sedation, body relaxation, sleep support
Uplifting HighMood elevationAnxiety relief, uplifting, stress reduction
Energetic HighEnergizing focusMental clarity, antioxidant, uplifting
Relieving HighTherapeuticPain relief, CB2 activation, anti-inflammation
Balancing HighBeginner-friendlyMild, gentle relaxation, balanced effects
Entourage HighFull-spectrumComplex, potent, entourage effect
The High Families system is powered by actual terpene and cannabinoid data, not just marketing labels. Learn more in our High Families guide.
