White Widow reviews

I've recently been introduced to this strain in the form of Sand Hash. My life is one of chronic pain, fibromyalgia and associated depression and, for me, not only does it easily control my pain (which pharmaceuticals haven't been able) this strain also removes the side effects of chronic pain. I don't feel high, stoopid, spacey or tired, instead I feel and behave nearly completely normal, with my usual energy and my creative mind intact and very active. Feel like my old self again, I've missed that.

Growing this plant was a real treat! I started with know-how from my grand-dad!! It grows like a champ when treated well but when treated badly it becomes a twisted, broken, scraggly MOUNTAIN of delicious gooeyness that demands the utmost in restraint to resist the chop-n-dry! So cool. I love this strain. So, just smoked about 2g of Artisan Homegrow Old White Widow. This plant was harvested last month and dried and cured to a stanky danky sticky crispy that is better than Salt and Vinegar on fish 'n' chips. OMG! :) Overall calm and happy, peaceful easy feeling with the ever present "hey let's go do something!" Maybe that's just me high. :p I noticed a complete absence of cough. Really smooth, almost "aerosol" smoke. And it opens the airways nicely. probably good for colds. Slighty warming sensation all over but my nose is cold! HAHA!! really deepens the lungs! I'm taking big deep breaths now, where with strains like Diesel, and the Kush's I'm coughing. It's clear though that younger, under-dried White Widow WILL give you BLINDING headaches. The plant has to be old. Strange, there's a lovely poetry in that. :) I got 99 problems, and Old White Widow ain't one. :)

Amazing for joint pain and muscle spasm. Extremely euphoric and happy.

First hit: Amazing taste. Very smooth smoke, some coughing nearing the end of my exhale. Eyes feel like they are starting to dry already. Within 5 minutes, ears starting to plug up a little bit. Starting to feel uplifted and stress-free. Second hit: Still tastes a mazing, almost better. Still some coughing nearing the end of the exhale, yet nonetheless still smooth hits. Possibly great for super hits. Within 7 minutes, my head is starting to feel like it's a fishbowl full of water in a tilting room. Serious euphoria. Ah, the lump in the throat!! Yes!!! I haven;'t felt this since I started smoking weed for the first time. This is going to be very similar to my first time. Yes... So excited. You should be too, son!!! I am singing "Plush" by STP and my vocals are actually better than usual.. 12 minutes since first hit. I literally feel like I have taken 7 hits but have only taken 3.. Wow. 2nd bowl (Keep in mind, I pack pretty small bowls. Way less than even a quarter a gram, and I am totally getting smoshed on this shit). Nxt hit, fourth I think, I'm not even kidding, it tastes like a real banana has aerated itself into my mouth!! I am fucking high, Or almost there. ;D Jesus christ fifth hit. I definitely ate a fucking banana fruit candy thingies that used to be awesome in the 90s. RUNTS MAN!!!!!!!! Jesus I am high!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the few strains to rate a 9 in my book. As Billy Idol used to sing "It's a nice day for a white widow" or was that wedding - I need more medicine.

This strain delivers a sense of euphoric certainty. A calming sense of well-being follows the initial energy. It puts the mind in a more comfortable place and simultaneously eases the body.

This was the first weed I smoked in Amsterdam and I associate it with a very pleasant time. It's a relaxing, clear headed high. My heart beats faster on it and I feel tingly. It puts a big smile on your face and seems to erase anxiety.

I've been smoking for a long time, first recreationally and then medicinally. There are a number of legendary strains that I've wanted to try. Matinuska Thunder Fuck, Pineapple Express, Maui Wowie, OG Kush, Granddaddy Purple and White Widow. Up until recently, I had tried all but White Widow. I tried a strain that was supposed White Widow but had almost none of the reported effects. Then I found some at Northwest Health Center LLC in PDX. This strain seems to be hard to find, considering it's reputation. The buds are light/dark mottled green with orange hairs. I wouldn't call it frosty by any means. I needed magnification to see the crystals. The buds are not sticky at all and are a little woody. The smell is of pine but not very strong. Considering what I've read about the frosty, sticky, stinky qualities of this strain, I don't believe I got the best sample. Grinding was easy with little remaining material in the grinder. Vaping at 380 produced a heavy vapor, but it didn't make me want to cough. Effects started off slowly with a little uplifted and spacey feeling. Thoughts are not difficult with this strain and good conversations are possible and even enhanced. I was happy and boarderline giggly. It completely cleared up my nausea for about three hours, which is a fantistic duration for me. This is a active strain and not a couch-lock one. It didn't affect my ability to go to sleep when I went to bed, however. I didn't experience any anxiety or paranoia. This strain has some nifty indica effects as well in that it significantly helped control my lower back pain and muscle spasms. This would be a good strain for almost anything, relieving pain, nausea, anxiety, depression, stress, etc. Since the strength was strong even in a lower quality sample, I imagine a high quality sample would knock my socks off. Even the sample I tried has brought this strain into my top five. A good quality sample might make number one. I intend to continue searching for, and sampling this strain whenever possible. -si
