White Widow Cannabis Seeds from Seedsman Seeds

White Widow is one of the best-known, and still one of the most potent, cannabis strains in the world. Originally created in the early 1990s its release to the coffee-shops of Amsterdam was met with universal rave reviews as canna-tourists flocked in their thousands to find out whether all the advance publicity for this white strain was true. It was and remains so today. Bred by crossing a Brazilian sativa strain with a highly resinous South Indian indica it is named after the plant's frosty appearance which makes it white with resin.

White Widow is designed for the utmost potency rather than any complex flavour profile although the smoke is very smooth and satisfying. The initial hit comes on fast and strong, which can leave anyone but the most experienced canna-seur needing to sit down, but this then slowly evolves into a very relaxing high ideal for enjoying music. It is an easy strain to grow almost anywhere; its eight week flowering period ensuring that it will be ready to harvest outdoors in October in northern latitudes before the weather gets too cold. THC levels are high, around 20%.

Strain FAQ

How can cannabis enthusiasts learn from regular seeds?

Regular seeds are a gateway to the production of new and exciting strains. They can also show valuable information on cannabis' life cycle and genetics and how to recognise and manage both male and female plants.

As days shorten, how do these strains manage light efficiency?

They maximise light during late summer and early autumn's shorter days. This is said to allow them to produce high yields even as daylight decreases.

White strain challenges?

White strains can reportedly be rather difficult. Their high trichome coating attracts pests and are said to require careful humidity and ventilation control to prevent mould and mildew.

What terpenes contribute to the floral taste?

Humulene and myrcene's earthy and musky overtones enrich the scent. Myrcene's reported potential to intensify THC's effects make it more intriguing.

Where do the genetics for High-THC cannabis strains come from?

High-THC strains combine sativa, indica, and hybrid traits. This rich genetic mix is created through careful breeding to increase THC and create a mesh of cannabinoids and terpenes for a variety of effects. It's a balancing act that showcases the art and science of legal cannabis cultivation.
