The backbone of the Dutch coffee-shop industry, the first of the ‘white’ varieties and an all-round commercial success story, White Widow is one of the most famous cannabis strains in modern growing. While this is partly due to the memorable name, her speed, yield and stunningly thick resin coating have a lot more to do with it. Mostly-Indica, with sweet, thick, acrid smoke that imparts a hammering stone, White Widow is a major part of many visitors’ first experience of Amsterdam.
