CBD White Widow
Also known as: White Widow Hemp, White Widow CBD Hemp Flower
Overview
CBD White Widow is a hemp-derived version of the legendary White Widow cannabis strain, specifically bred to contain high levels of CBD while maintaining minimal THC content (under 0.3% to comply with hemp regulations). This strain preserves the balanced hybrid genetics of the original White Widow, which was created by crossing a Brazilian sativa landrace with a South Indian indica strain. The original White Widow was developed by breeder Shantibaba at Green House Seed Company in the Netherlands during the 1990s and won the Cannabis Cup in 1995, becoming one of the most popular cannabis strains worldwide. The CBD version maintains the characteristic dense, trichome-covered buds that give the strain its distinctive frosty white appearance, which inspired its name. Unlike its high-THC counterpart, CBD White Widow offers therapeutic benefits without psychoactive effects, making it suitable for users seeking potential wellness benefits while remaining clear-headed and functional throughout the day.
