White Widow Autoflower
Also known as: White Widow Auto, Auto White Widow, WW Auto
White Widow Autoflower Strain Overview
White Widow Autoflower is a hybrid cannabis strain resulting from crossing the classic White Widow with ruderalis genetics, producing a 45% Indica / 55% Sativa strain that maintains the genetic equilibrium of its iconic parent while adding autoflowering capabilities. The original White Widow first emerged in the Netherlands in the early 1990s, created by renowned breeder Shantibaba at the Green House Seed Company, and is believed to be a cross between a Brazilian sativa landrace and a South Indian indica. The strain gained legendary status after winning the 1995 High Times Cannabis Cup, cementing its place in cannabis history. The autoflower version was created by crossing the original White Widow with ruderalis genetics to produce plants that complete their cycle in just 75-85 days total crop time. White Widow is characterized by dense, pale green buds with a thick coating of white trichomes that give the strain its distinctive frosty appearance, which inspired its name. The autoflower variant typically contains 20-25% THC in standard versions, though some phenotypes range from 16-19%, making it a potent strain suitable for both recreational and medicinal users.
