Description
White Widow is a hybrid strain that gained widespread recognition in the early 1990s. It enjoys global popularity and is a common feature on the menus of virtually any Amsterdam coffee shop. The strain’s prevalence has significantly increased due to mentions in the TV show “Weeds” and references within rap music. White Widow maintains a fairly balanced 60:40 sativa/indica ratio (a blend of Brazil Sativa and South Indian Indica), leading to a high that stimulates cognition while offering a soothing backdrop.
Patients often choose White Widow when they need a strain that allows them to unwind and relax, while preserving a sense of mental alertness. It is particularly effective for treating conditions such as depression, stress, pain, and PTSD. White Widow derives its name from its appearance: it’s literally cloaked in white crystals. However, be cautious – its sweet, sugary smoke begins lightly but expands significantly, potentially causing heavy coughing, especially for beginner smokers. In terms of aroma, you can anticipate a citrus and peppery scent, accompanied by a lemony aftertaste. This strain is perfect for outdoor activities, such as relaxing at the beach or enjoying a leisurely walk.
