White Widow is a hybrid weed strain made from a genetic cross between a Brazilian sativa landrace and a resin-heavy South Indian indica. This strain is 60% sativa and 40% indica. White Widow is one of the most famous strains worldwide, first bred in the Netherlands by Green House Seeds in the 1990s. Its buds are white with crystal resin, warning you of the potent effects to come. A powerful burst of euphoria and energy breaks through immediately, stimulating both conversation and creativity. White Widow is 15% THC, making this strain an ideal choice for moderate cannabis consumers. Leafly customers tell us White Widow effects include feeling energetic, talkative, and creative. Medical marijuana patients often choose White Widow when dealing with symptoms associated with stress, anxiety, and pain. White Widow features flavors like woody, spicy/herbal, and earthy. The dominant terpenes of this strain are myrcene and caryophyllene, though growing conditions and strain phenotypes may impact the exact blend. The average price of White Widow typically ranges from $8-$12 per gram. White Widow is a balanced hybrid that can be enjoyed by both indica and sativa lovers. It has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks and can be grown indoors or outdoors in mild climates. It produces chunky and conical buds with a loose and fluffy texture that are easy to break up despite their stickiness.

I’d give 5 stars but took one away because if you’re sensitive to sativas/and or have anxiety, you may want to take it easy on this one. Husband and I split a J of this and it was a VERY thin line between being ok and on the verge of a panic attack. I’m a very anxious and flighty/stressed person anyways, but have been trying to find a good daytime strain to help me get shit done. I will say that it hits you all at once, it’s definitely not a creeper like others. 4 good hits had me cleaning my house, cooking dinner, doing dishes and still had energy after the high wore off. Taste: inhale is earthy, exhale is very soapy/cleaner tasting.

Absolutely love this strain! It was recommended to me for my chronic tmj pain, and it has helped me quite a lot. After 10 minutes of smoking it the pain has completely gone away. I was finally able to talk and laugh without pain. The first 2 hours my eyes were extremely dry, they kept getting teary and I just had to keep rubbing them. But the high was quite mellow, yes the dizziness and tingling, as well as the loudness of sounds around me was a bit intense. But after just laying down with snacks and a good series I had an amazing afternoon. And the tiredness after the high was not too bad, so I was still able to work out afterwards.

smoking flower of white widow from Canadian lp: Versus. sativa high. not super heady, just a mellow sativa high from this cut. lot number: AFG00000712. woody, vanilla afternote. nothing crazy flavour wise. it's there, but it's a standard old school flavour, nothing candy or bright citrus with fuel. buds were dense when it appeared to be a top cola and fluffier when small lower growth bud. not by much. trichomes were cloudy and plentiful. smoke was unbearably harsh when down past the first half of the joint. will definitely be returning this ounce of flower to the store and buying something local and og instead.

Many growers prefer the cultivation of the original White Widow over the numerous variations.

  • Suitable for sea of green (SOG) and screen of green (SCROG) setups
  • Fertilize and water in moderation to avoid mildew and to preserve flavor profiles
  • Changing light cycle to 8 hours during the final 2 weeks of flowering prevents regrowth of buds; stress will induce better resin coverage
  • Flowers in about 60 days indoors
  • Needs a lot of sun outdoors, but is suitable for colder climates
