Widow Shocker
Also known as: Widow Shock
What is the Widow Shocker strain?
Widow Shocker is a hybrid cannabis strain, known for its sleepy effects and diesel and earthy flavor profile.
Widow Shocker is an indica-dominant F1 hybrid cannabis strain developed by New420Guy Seeds breeder Scott Sedita. Created by crossing Shock Trauma with a Black Widow heirloom strain, this medicinal variety exhibits a balanced yet untested CBD/THC ratio with high levels of both cannabinoids. The strain represents a fusion of therapeutic genetics, combining the sedative properties of Black Widow with the medicinal benefits of Shock Trauma. Widow Shocker is characterized by its very large bud structure that tends to stretch significantly unless properly managed through manicuring and cropping. The strain produces substantial, resinous buds that are well-suited for SCROG (Screen of Green) growing methods, delivering dense, trichome-covered flowers. The aromatic profile begins with a skunky initial draw that transitions into flowery aromatics inherited from its Shock Trauma mother, followed by pungent, smooth fuel-like flavors that reflect its complex genetic heritage.
