Power Widow
Also known as: Power Widow #1
Power Widow Strain Overview
Power Widow is a hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing two legendary parent strains: White Widow and Power Plant. This combination brings together the balanced effects and resin production of White Widow with the energetic, sativa-dominant characteristics of Power Plant. The strain emerged in the early 2000s as breeders sought to create a plant that maintained the cerebral stimulation of Power Plant while incorporating the frosty trichome coverage and balanced effects of White Widow.
Visually, Power Widow plants typically display dense, compact buds with a generous coating of white trichomes, a characteristic inherited from its White Widow parent. The flowers often exhibit a vibrant green coloration with occasional orange pistils weaving through the dense bud structure. The strain is known for its robust growth pattern and relatively high resin production, making it popular among both recreational users and extract producers.
Power Widow has gained recognition for its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain is particularly noted for its versatility, appealing to users seeking both daytime functionality and evening relaxation depending on dosage and individual tolerance. While not as widely available as some mainstream commercial strains, Power Widow maintains a dedicated following among cannabis enthusiasts who appreciate its heritage and well-rounded effects.

Power Widow Strain Growing Information
Power Widow is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-October outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean climate when grown outside. Plants tend to reach medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Power Widow is relatively resistant to common molds and pests but requires good air circulation due to its dense bud structure. The plants respond well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
