Turbo Widow
Also known as: Turbo Widow OG
Turbo Widow Strain Overview
Turbo Widow is a hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing White Widow with an undisclosed Turbo strain, likely referencing the Turbo lineage known for its fast flowering characteristics. The strain emerged in the early 2000s as breeders sought to combine White Widow's legendary resin production and balanced effects with faster maturation times. While less documented than its famous parent, Turbo Widow has maintained a niche following among growers seeking a quicker version of the classic White Widow experience.
Visually, Turbo Widow plants typically display dense, compact buds covered in a generous layer of trichomes that give them a frosty white appearance, reminiscent of its White Widow heritage. The buds often exhibit deep green coloration with occasional purple hues and vibrant orange pistils. The strain's name references both its genetic lineage and its reputed faster flowering time compared to traditional White Widow varieties.
Notable features include its relatively quick flowering period and balanced hybrid effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain maintains the distinctive aroma profile of White Widow while potentially offering improved cultivation characteristics for those seeking faster harvest cycles. As with many cannabis strains, specific characteristics can vary between phenotypes and growing conditions.

Turbo Widow Strain Growing Information
Turbo Widow is generally considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate. It typically flowers in 7-9 weeks indoors, which is somewhat faster than traditional White Widow varieties. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors, with indoor yields averaging 400-500 grams per square meter and outdoor plants producing 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
Plants tend to remain medium in height, making them suitable for indoor cultivation with limited vertical space. They respond well to training techniques like topping and LST (low-stress training) to maximize yields. Turbo Widow prefers a stable environment with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity levels, particularly during flowering to prevent mold in the dense buds. The strain is known for producing generous amounts of resin, making it popular among extract artists.
