Black Widow
About Black Widow
Black Widow is a hybrid bred from South American and South Indian Sativa. Reviews most often mention feeling hungry, sleepy and talkative.
THC and potency
Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 3 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2022 came in at a median of 11.2% total THC (the middle half ranged from 10.9% to 16.2%). That is on the milder side for modern flower. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.
Aroma, flavour and terpenes
Its reported terpene profile is led by terpinolene, with ocimene and limonene. Terpinolene is known for fresh, herbal brightness with hints of pine and flowers, while ocimene adds sweet, green herbal notes. Consumers most often describe the flavour as ammonia, woody and tea.
Reported effects
Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with stress, anxiety and pain. The side effects mentioned most are dry eyes, dry mouth and dizziness. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
