White Widow Strain

First bred in the Netherlands by Green House Seeds, White Widow is one of the world’s most famous strains. The prevalence of White Widow has greatly increased due to the television show Weeds and can easily be found atop a menu at almost any Amsterdam coffee shop. With genetics that link back to a Brazilian Sativa and a resin-heavy Indian Indica, the White Widow strain is very popular both in America and abroad. White Widow buds produce an entrancing, full-bodied effect, and are typically smothered in shiny, white trichomes.

When smoked, this medical cannabis hybrid strain creates a full-bodied high that is uplifting yet thought-provoking, making it perfect for social gatherings or going on adventures. White Widow’s genetics have given rise to many other legends like White Russian, White Rhino, and Blue Widow. But most growers stick to cultivating the original White Widow, which flowers in roughly 60 days when bred indoors, yielding 55-65g per plant. The aroma and taste of the White Widow strain is a combination of clean pine-fresh and peppery citrus.

Patients enjoy this hybrid strain as it allows them to unwind and relax while still maintaining a sense of mental awareness. This strain is especially good for depression, stress, pain, and PTSD. The White Widow strain is also known to provide an almost immediate uplift in mood, energy and focus. Because of its deeply cerebral effects, this hybrid strain is typically more psychologically than physically helpful. It can aid those with ADD/ADHD in sustaining focus on a single topic. It can also boost energy in cases of fatigue or depression.
