White Widow, a balanced hybrid strain that combines the best traits of two legendary strains: Brazilian indica and South Indian sativa. This strain gets its name from its frosty white appearance, which is due to the abundance of trichomes that coat the buds. This classic strain is known for its stimulating and euphoric effects, as well as its pungent and earthy flavor. In this article, we explore the origins, effects, and benefits of White Widow, and why it is a favorite among Left Coast enthusiasts.

 

ORIGINS AND GENETICS

The White Widow marijuana strain is one of the most famous and influential cannabis strains in the world. White Widow was created and developed by Shantibaba, the founder of Green House Seeds, in the 1990s as a cross between Brazilian indica and South Indian sativa landraces. This combination resulted in a strain that has a perfect balance of indica and sativa effects, as well as a high THC content of around 20%. White Widow has won numerous awards, including the Cannabis Cup in 1995, and has inspired many other strains, such as White Russian and The White.

 

WHAT IS A BALANCED HYBRID CANNABIS STRAIN?

Balanced hybrids, such as White Widow, are cannabis strains that have an equal or near-equal ratio of indica and sativa genetics. Indica strains are known for their relaxing, sedating, and pain-relieving effects, as well as their short and bushy appearance. Sativa strains are known for their uplifting, energizing, and creative effects, as well as their tall and slender appearance. Hybrid strains are created by crossing different varieties of cannabis, in order to create new strains with unique characteristics and effects. Balanced hybrids tend to have a harmonious blend of the physical and mental effects of both indica and sativa strains, making them versatile and adaptable to different situations and preferences.

 

DOES WHITE WIDOW HAVE HIGH LEVELS OF THCV?

White Widow contains low to moderate levels of THCV, as strains with high levels of THCV usually have some African sativa genetics. White Widow is a cross between Brazilian indica and South Indian sativa strains, both of which have some THCV presence. White Widow typically has a THCV concentration of around 0.2%, which is lower than most balanced hybrid strains. White Widow is reported by some consumers to offer the stimulating and euphoric effects often associated with lower-THCV cultivars.

 

WHAT ARE THE DOMINANT TERPENES IN WHITE WIDOW?

White Widow is characterized by a rich terpene profile that contributes to its potent and complex effects, aroma and taste. The dominant terpenes in White Widow Left Coast products include:

 

Myrcene: Usually the most abundant terpene in White Widow, Myrcene adds to the strain's earthy, musky and skunky smell. Myrcene is one of the most common terpenes across all cannabis strains and is known for its sedative and anti-inflammatory properties.

 

Limonene: Limonene is the second-most dominant terpene in White Widow, giving it a citrusy and fresh scent. This terpene is believed to have uplifting, mood-enhancing and anti-anxiety effects.

 

Caryophyllene: Caryophyllene is the third-most prevalent terpene in White Widow, imparting a spicy and woody aroma to the strain. This terpene is unique for its ability to bind to cannabinoid receptors and modulate the effects of THC and other cannabinoids.
