About Face Mints
Face Mints is a menthol-scented indica-dominant hybrid bred for dense, resinous buds and a pronounced mint profile. It offers 18–22% THC with low CBD and delivers a bright, focused onset that eases into a calming body sensation. Plants stay compact and suit small indoor systems or sheltered outdoor spots. Under careful feeding and canopy management this variety produces medium-high yields and strong terpene expression.
Face Mints is an indica-dominant hybrid that leans on resinous, mint-forward phenotypes. Buds are dense and compact with a pronounced trichome layer.
THC levels typically range from 18 to 22 percent by weight. That potency produces clear-headed cerebral lift that settles into a calming body effect.
CBD is low, usually under one percent, so the chemotype is THC-led rather than CBD-rich. Expect effects driven by cannabinoids and terpenes rather than a CBD balance.
The genetics combine MINTS OG with FACE OFF to emphasise menthol top notes and abundant resin. Breeding focused on stabilising compact growth and high trichome coverage.
Seeds are offered feminised to guarantee female plants and predictable harvests. Photoperiod lines require a deliberate light schedule to trigger flowering.
Under a temperate southern England climate Face Mints shows good resilience but benefits from attentive feeding and humidity control. It suits growers with moderate experience who can manage ventilation and routine pest checks.
Flowering usually completes within eight to nine weeks. Trichome production peaks in the final week of the cycle.
Indoor yields are medium to high for compact plants, commonly 400–500 g/m² with good technique. Outdoor results match indoor numbers in sheltered, warm sites.
Plants remain short to medium with a bushy, cola-focused structure that suits denser training. The compact habit makes it effective in SOG or small tents.
Indoors it responds very well to controlled environments and training, producing dense colas. Outdoors in Dundee it finishes reliably when given shelter and airflow, and in Dundee plants benefit from careful wet-season management.
In Dundee this strain tolerates cool nights but performs best with a clear, dry late season and some wind protection. The temperate southern England climate offers a longer, more reliable finish further south, so growers in Dundee should prioritise mould prevention and canopy management.
Initial effects deliver a minty uplift and gentle euphoria that clarify thinking. That light headspace transitions into a relaxed, tactile body sensation without heavy sedation.
The flavour profile is dominated by cool peppermint with bright citrus top notes and an earthy, herbal base. The mint is most pronounced on the exhale.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this strain, covering growth, effects, and suitability for UK conditions.
Use 18/6 for veg and switch to 12/12 to induce flowering; maintain consistent light cycles to avoid hermaphroditism.
With good nutrients and training expect around 400–500 g/m² indoors under optimal conditions.
No special nutrients are required but it responds well to a balanced feed that supports resin and terpene development.
Ensure strong airflow, keep the canopy open, and site plants away from shade and prolonged damp; harvest promptly if wet weather persists.
Yes, its compact structure makes it ideal for SOG; it also trains well under SCROG to maximise light penetration.
Keep an eye out for spider mites, aphids and powdery mildew; regular inspection and biological controls are effective early interventions.
Yes, controlled climate cannabis growing with precise temperature, humidity and CO2 management brings out the best terpene profile and consistent yields.
Aim for late September to early October in southern areas, but harvest earlier in cooler, northern sites to avoid autumn rains.
Light, selective defoliation helps airflow and light penetration but heavy stripping can stress the plant and reduce yield.
Dry slowly to around 62% RH then cure in jars for at least two to four weeks to fully develop aroma and smoothness.
