About White Widow

White Widow is a hybrid. Reviews most often mention feeling energetic, talkative and creative.

THC and potency

Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 162 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2023 came in at a median of 24.1% total THC (the middle half ranged from 21.6% to 26.2%). CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That puts it at the strong end of the market, so newer consumers should start low. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.

Aroma, flavour and terpenes

In lab tests its dominant terpene is caryophyllene, followed by limonene and bisabolol. Caryophyllene is known for black pepper and warm spice, while limonene adds bright citrus-peel freshness. Total terpene content measured a median of 1.6%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as woody, spicy/herbal and earthy.

Reported effects

Beyond feeling energetic, reviewers also mention feeling uplifted and giggly. Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with stress, anxiety and pain. The side effects mentioned most are dry mouth, paranoia and dry eyes. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
