White Widow is a feminised indica-dominant strain from Nirvana, a celebrated cultivar that has picked up several cup wins and was a popular choice in Amsterdam coffee shops during the 1990s. Bred from a Kerala and Manga Rose cross, it forms a compact, stocky plant that suits growers who prefer a manageable height. Its flowering window typically falls between eight and ten weeks, and the plant responds well to training, producing a generous canopy of dense, resinous flowers. The buds are known for a heavy coating of resin, which makes them a favourite with hash makers and extract enthusiasts. Aromas lean towards earthy, pungent and floral notes. The strain is described as easy to grow and resilient across a range of climates, and it can be cultivated indoors or outdoors. Its effects are often described as uplifting and focused, with a sedating and relieving character for those who prefer a calmer finish. Feminised seeds let you decide when to switch the plants into flowering, making this a flexible choice for both newer and experienced growers.
