Great strain for relaxing, insomnia and muscle spasms.

This stain, starts with a subtle high, gives instant stress-relief and about half an hour later a deep relaxing feeling invades the body.

The only downside is that It can make you very light-headed if you overdo it, since it also has a diuretic effect that could lead to some weird situations.

<p>Snow Ryder is an indica-dominant auto-flowering strain available only in feminized seed form from Sensi Seeds. Unlike many auto-flowering strains, Snow Ryder is not a dwarf, so these sturdy plants can grow as tall as four feet while still featuring short <a href="/news/cannabis-101/cannabis-anatomy-the-parts-of-the-plant">internodal spacing</a>. It produces tight, resinous buds covered in sparkly <a href="/news/cannabis-101/cannabis-anatomy-the-parts-of-the-plant">trichomes</a> that have a sweet-spicy, earthy, citrus flavor. The effect of these flowers is described as a deep body stone accompanied by a breezy head high. &nbsp;</p>

<h2 class="heading--l py-md"><a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/purple-widow"><img alt="Leafly &quot;Purple Widow&quot; hybrid cannabis strain tile" height="155px" src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/new-strains-alert-purple-widow-medicine-woman-shark-attack-purple/iOcmbgtZR4f8UTswywxo_Purple-Widow.png" width="120px" /></a>&nbsp; &nbsp;1. <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/purple-widow">Purple Widow</a></h2>
<blockquote>
<p>Purple Widow from De Sjamaan Seeds crosses <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/white-widow">White Widow</a> with the renowned Dutch outdoor strain Purple Power, resulting in a large, sturdy plant that produces fat, resin-covered purple flowers. The aroma ranges from incense to fruit with floral overtones, and the taste from light berry to citrusy. Effects are generally described as combining a strong indica body high with a racy, cerebral sativa feel. Originally bred in the Netherlands in 2007, Purple Widow is not recommended for indoor growing and can reach over 10 feet in height outdoors.</p>

<h2 class="heading--l py-md"><a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/shark-attack"><img alt="Leafly &quot;Shark Attack&quot; indica cannabis strain tile" height="155px" src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/new-strains-alert-purple-widow-medicine-woman-shark-attack-purple/ny2SdayzS0W26GmAHtz8_Shark-Attack.png" width="120px" /></a>&nbsp; &nbsp;2. <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/shark-attack">Shark Attack</a></h2>
<blockquote>
<p>A 70/30 indica-dominant hybrid from Dinafem Seeds, Shark Attack is a cross of <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/super-skunk">Super Skunk</a> and <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/white-widow">White Widow</a>. Though it produces relatively modest levels of THC (12-16%) and significant amounts of <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/whats-the-deal-with-these-high-cbd-strains">CBD</a>, the high is powerfully relaxing and long lasting, and can offer relief from aches and pain. Shark Attack produces a very strong odor of earthy hash with floral and lemon undertones, and tastes much like it smells. Because it is compact, easy to grow, and high yielding, as well as being suitable for indoor, outdoor, or greenhouse cultivation, Shark Attack is fast becoming one of the more popular hybrids available in feminized seed form.</p>

<h2 class="heading--l py-md"><a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/purple-headband"><img alt="Leafly &quot;Purple Headband&quot; hybrid cannabis strain tile" height="155px" src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/new-strains-alert-purple-widow-medicine-woman-shark-attack-purple/gUU0Iun0RMeBuLlSeYIg_Purple-Headband.png" width="120px" /></a>&nbsp; &nbsp;3. <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/purple-headband">Purple Headband</a></h2>
<blockquote>
<p>Purple Headband is a 50/50 hybrid strain that combines the famous <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/headband">Headband</a> with an unknown &ldquo;purple&rdquo; hybrid, resulting in dense pink and purple flowers covered in greenish <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/cannabis-anatomy-the-parts-of-the-plant">trichomes</a>. It often produces a strong fruity aroma with just a hint of gasoline, and a similar flavor with undertones of pine. The high has been likened to that of Headband: uplifting yet relaxing with a warm, fuzzy pressure that gradually creeps from your temples across your forehead.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Salmon River OG is an indica-dominant strain from Oregon breeders Dynasty Genetics, who combined a <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/pre-98-bubba-kush">Pre-98 Bubba Kush</a> clone with a carefully selected <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/blue-heron">Blue Heron</a> male, creating a potent and easy-to-grow plant that finishes flowering in 7-8 weeks. The Salmon River OG may provide excellent pain relief and a heavy indica buzz; it is recommended that novice users take care not to overindulge. Dynasty has noted three main <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/cannabis-genotypes-and-phenotypes-what-makes-a-strain-unique">phenotypes</a> in this cross, all with a similar <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/terpenes-the-flavors-of-cannabis-aromatherapy">terpene</a> profile: a strong berry scent, underlined with hints of chocolate, coffee, lemon, and gasoline, and a similar taste when vaporized or smoked.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Medicine Woman is a 60/40 sativa-dominant hybrid strain from renowned Oregon medical cannabis grower David Verstoppen. Aiming to help treat the symptoms of his wife&rsquo;s fibromyalgia, Dave crossed <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/purple-urkle">Purple Urkle</a> <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/29aca226-23ba-4726-a4ab-f3bf68f2a3c4">Dynamite</a>, and <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/medicine-man">Medicine Man</a> to create this potent hybrid. Measured at over 23% THC, it relaxes muscles and provides powerful pain relief along with an energetic, clear-headed high. The aroma of Medicine Woman is sweet and skunky, and it tastes of sour citrus and diesel fuel.</p>

Combining <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/dutch-treat">Dutch Treat</a> and <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/dj-short-blueberry">DJ Short&rsquo;s Blueberry</a>, this hybrid is loaded with citrus and berry flavors that taste as good as it smells. With a chemical profile that falls around 27% THC and 8% <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/whats-the-deal-with-these-high-cbd-strains">CBD</a>, Dutchberry has one of the highest <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/cannabinoids-101-what-makes-cannabis-medicine">cannabinoid</a> contents available in the marketplace today. The high CBD content helps modify the extreme THC content to produce a happy, giggly high perfect for unwinding after a long day at work./p&gt;</p>
