What is the Black Widow Auto strain?
Black Widow Auto is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its happy effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Black Widow Auto is an autoflowering version of the legendary Black Widow strain, created by crossing the original Black Widow with a Lowryder (Ruderalis) strain. The original Black Widow genetics are Brazilian Sativa x South Indian Indica, making this a hybrid with autoflowering capabilities. The parent Black Widow strain was created in the 1990s by renowned breeder Shantibaba and won the 1995 High Times Cannabis Cup under the name White Widow. When the original breeders parted ways, Shantibaba kept the parent plants and renamed his creation Black Widow. The autoflowering version maintains the potency and characteristics of its legendary parent while offering the convenience of automatic flowering without requiring light schedule changes. Plants reach a compact height of 70 to 100cm, making them suitable for discreet cultivation both indoors and outdoors. The flowers are typical bright green with purple highlights and bright reddish-orange hairs, with some plants developing stunning black, purple, and red pistils during late flowering. The buds are rock hard, soaked in resin and often have a crystalline sheen due to the amount of trichomes.
