Forte Whole Flower - White Widow (WW)
White Widow Flower is back!
White Widow is a popular hybrid strain that has been seen on menus for over two decades. It's a cross between a Brazilian sativa and South Indian indica landraces (original, pure cannabis strains that have not been bred with any other cannabis strain and were grown in their native environment) and gets its name because it's blanketed in white crystals.
White Widow emits a strong smell of earthy undertones blended with sandalwood and herbs and spices and the initial taste is sweet citrus, but it gives way to more savory flavors of earth, pine wood, and flower.
Patients might choose White Widow if they're seeking a strain that allows them to unwind and relax while still maintaining a sense of mental awareness. This strain could also possibly be used for patients in treating depression, stress, pain, and PTSD.

White Widow is a cross of two landrace strains, Brazilian and South Indian, from Green House Seed Company in Amsterdam. Green House breeder Arjan Roskam reports having developed White Widow in the early ’90s with fellow Netherlands breeder Ingemar.
According to Arjan, the strain’s original name was Arnhem’s Wonder before he and Ingemar commercialized it in seed form and changed the name to White Widow. The winner of first place Bio at High Times Cannabis Cup in 1995, White Widow delivers a strong peppery cedar flavor and a complex, long-lasting high that starts with a relaxing haze and gives way to an explosive buzz, as reported by Green House.
Green House has tested White Widow at 18.76% THC, 0.10% CBD, and 0.28% CBN. The seed bank has also developed autoflowering and high-CBD autoflowering versions of the strain by hybridizing White Widow with Ruderalis and high-CBD strains, respectively. Green House Seed Co. carries all three versions of White Widow in feminized seed form.
