The result of crossing different selections of White Widow, the legendary Dutch variety of the 90’s. In our particular interpretation, we used two different types of white widow, one of a purely Indica type, with dense flowers and fast flowering, and another more Sativa-like, with a longer flowering and a higher level of resin. Thus we see that the Gipsy Widow behaves like an Indica, but during flowering phase its behaviour varies, stretching and creating flowers that bind to each other, forming long and dense buds, that as the days go by the flowers become compacted, making it necessary to place guardians support canes by the end of flowering. The array of aromas of the Gipsy Widow mainly includes citrus tones, where fresh lemon mixes with an earthy touch, finding in turn individuals in which a light scent of incense appears. The effect is powerful, very physical throughout the smoke, with a cerebral effect also appearing that makes for interesting times of the day when there are no responsibilities and you can relax.

Strain FAQ
Are there any uncommon terpenes in earthy flavoured strains?
Earthy strains may also contain lesser-known terpenes like bisabolol, which smells floral, and guaiol, which smells piney with wood and rose undertones. The strain's earthy flavour is reportedly enhanced by these subtleties.
What genealogy do many white strains share?
Many white strains are derived from White Widow, a 1990s Dutch hybrid. White Widow set the high potency and effects profile criteria for numerous white strains, affecting the genetics of many hybrids.
How do short-flowering strains handle temperature changes?
Some short-flowering cultivars may withstand unexpected temperature changes, making them reportedly excellent for outdoor legal gardening. This resilience enables consistent growth and decreases environmental stress-related crop failure.
