White Grapefruit
Also known as: White Grapefruit Kush
White Grapefruit Strain Overview
White Grapefruit is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from California's cannabis breeding scene. The strain was developed by crossing the popular White Widow with a carefully selected Grapefruit phenotype, creating a unique combination of White Widow's resin production and Grapefruit's distinctive citrus characteristics. Breeders aimed to create a strain with both appealing flavor and reliable effects, resulting in a plant that has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its balanced properties.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, medium-sized buds with a frosty coating of trichomes that gives them a whitish appearance, reminiscent of its White Widow heritage. The nugs typically display various shades of green with occasional purple hues, complemented by vibrant orange pistils. The most notable feature is its strong citrus aroma, which carries distinct grapefruit notes with subtle earthy undertones. The flavor profile follows the aroma closely, delivering a smooth smoke with pronounced grapefruit and citrus flavors that linger on the palate.
White Grapefruit has maintained a consistent presence in the cannabis market, particularly in regions where citrus-forward strains are appreciated. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream hybrids, it has developed a dedicated following among users who value its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile. The strain represents a successful combination of two well-regarded genetics, offering a reliable experience that bridges the gap between recreational enjoyment and potential therapeutic applications.

White Grapefruit Strain Growing Information
White Grapefruit is considered a moderate difficulty 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 when grown 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 performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to reach medium height, making them manageable for indoor cultivation with proper training techniques. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure and providing adequate support during flowering as the resinous buds can become heavy. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
