Reviews

the onehumanbeing subjective and informal review:

I doubt if I’ve ever seen a really good White Widow here in Long Beach. This was a very popular strain 12 years ago, back in the mid to late 90′s, but it’s become rather generic and uninspiring…

Of course, other people may have very different opinions about White Widow than I do… just my unfortunate luck of never finding a really good version of this strain.

Some of the White Widow I’ve seen is about the same quality as old-time commercial Mexican weed… not my taste at all.

Hopefully I’ll be able to try a really good version of this strain someday that will make me change my mind.

From Kind Green Buds

Since its introduction in 1995, White Widow has become an infamous breed in the world of weed. This variety can be found in almost every coffeeshop in Amsterdam, but while imitation may be the truest form of flattery, the genuine item bears the Greenhouse name.

This variety’s reputation has been built on its excellence in smell, flavor, and quality of high. White Widow has fragrantly fresh pine cone nugs that have a taste bordering between fruit and flowers when smoked. Setting the standard for kind bud, White Widow washes over you with a warm feeling of mildly trippy sensations.

White Widow is a compact plant of medium height. The buds only develop a few amber-colored hairs, but the outrageous crystalline resin production of this plant has become legendary. Inevitably the reputation that precedes it leads some growers to decide that it is overrated, but many find this variety to be everything they anticipated and more. White Widow has the potential to live up to its reputation if grown adeptly. This strain is recommended for indoor gardening, where water and fertilizer should be administered modestly to avoid mildew and retain the delicious flavors. Greenhouse suggests changing the lighting to 8 hours during the last 2 weeks of flowering in order to halt regrowth of on the buds and produce just enough stress to coax out the maximum amount of sticky resin per inch.
