Genetics & Origin of White Widow
White Widow first appeared in Holland in the mid-1990s, in the golden age of Amsterdam's coffeeshops. According to Silent Seeds, anyone who visited the city's best-known shops back then still remembers this famous strain today. Its name describes what you see: the plant coats its tissue with such a dense layer of resin trichomes that it looks as if it has been dusted white. The Silent Seeds version is a White Widow × White Widow cross, i.e. a stabilisation within the same line. It is Indica-dominant with 65% Indica and 35% Sativa, the THC content is 14 to 20% and the CBD content is low. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod. If you are looking for these genetics as an autoflowering version, you will find Auto White Widow by Nirvana in our range.
Who Is White Widow For?
White Widow is a resinous classic with a short flowering time. It suits:
- Fans of classic coffeeshop strains of the 1990s
- Indoor growers who want to harvest quickly with 55 days of flowering
- Hash and extract lovers who appreciate plenty of resin
- Outdoor gardeners with space for plants up to 2.5 m tall
- Consumers looking for medium to high potency rather than record figures
Because of its height, the strain is less suitable for inconspicuous outdoor spots. You can find more Indica-leaning strains under Indica strains.
Growing White Widow: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
Indoors, White Widow is ready to harvest after 55 days of flowering; Silent Seeds states a yield of 550 g/m². The short flowering time allows runs that are easy to plan. Because the flowers and the surrounding leaves produce a great deal of resin, it is worth keeping the trim for hash or extracts. In late flowering, good air movement and controlled humidity keep the resinous flowers dry; topping and a net allow the light to be distributed evenly. The manufacturer does not publish detailed growing advice for this strain. You will find the basics on climate and training in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, according to the data sheet, White Widow grows around 2.5 m tall and needs space accordingly. Harvest falls in early to mid-October; the manufacturer states 900 g per plant. A sunny, wind-sheltered spot and sturdy supports help to bring the large plants safely to maturity. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of White Widow
Silent Seeds gives the flavour of White Widow as sweet and fruity; no lab terpene profile is available. According to the manufacturer, the strain is known above all for the power of its effect, which it describes as exhausting – in keeping with the Indica dominance and the exceptional resin density. The breeder gives no further details on how the effect develops, and we do not add any descriptions of our own here. At 14 to 20% THC, White Widow sits in the medium to high range and below the peak values of current US hybrids. How intense the effect is depends on dose and individual tolerance.
