Widow was the very first “named strain” I ever tried at 15yo and now at 43 it’s undeniably still my favorite for truly any occasion. I have smoked, vaped or dabbed just about everything available in the Illinois market and some from other states but nothing compares to White Widow. Flower is my favorite way to indulge and using a dry herb vaporizer really highlights the incredible flavor of WW. I buy the Upnorth Humboldt variety, or in a blend from Daze Off, as that’s all we have access to in IL. It’s cultivated by Aeriz and it’s outstanding! The buds are always sticky but fluffy and just covered in huge white trichomes. The green that peeks through has a bit of a blue hue to it and they do a great job of leaving some of the sugar leaves intact. The aroma has a top note of skunk and a hint of lemon and the base notes are more earthy and sweet with a mild gassy finish. The taste (when vaped) does actually mimic the aroma perfectly. It’s a bit skunky, sweet, earthy and has a subtle lemon finish on exhale. I have osteoarthritis in my shoulder and get moderate to severe migraines a few times a year and WW genuinely helps both. It increases my appetite, which I do not need, but is fun when you want to munch out. It’s just all around a phenomenal strain and hats off to the folks at Aeriz in Illinois for delivering 100% consistent fire White Widow every batch. The live resin carts and the flower and both out of this world!

White Widow reviews
I have ADHD, and I tend to reach for this when I’m struggling with executive dysfunction shenanigans (difficulty starting tasks, freeze response to overwhelm, lacking the energy/motivation to do basically anything, etc). White Widow is uplifting in a warm, light way, taking the edge off the overwhelm and overthinking so it’s easier for me to begin things and have the energy to finish them. I tend to have an uplifting, energetic but easy-going high for about an hour (focus may vary, so just like with my meds I try to have a plan of what I want to do before I vape/smoke). Afterwards it tapers off and I feel slightly spacey, but in a calm, dreamy way. It’s not the brainrot chill where you feel like you’re sinking into the couch and your last brain cell is dissociating. More like if you were lying in the grass and listening to the birds and the breeze in the trees ykwim (my cats very much enjoy the second stage because they get spoiled with pets and snuggles after I’ve gotten some tasks done).
This particular strain and I have an extensive history all the way back in 1999-2000 when I first encountered her. Spicy and earthy and slightly tasting of soap. Such a clean buzz. Even more so when you vape it. Makes me want to draw cartoons and fix shit lol. I really enjoy this one.
it’s was good, not my favourite but still kicks you hard with a nice smell.
I would marry this if I could
I’d give 5 stars but took one away because if you’re sensitive to sativas/and or have anxiety, you may want to take it easy on this one. Husband and I split a J of this and it was a VERY thin line between being ok and on the verge of a panic attack. I’m a very anxious and flighty/stressed person anyways, but have been trying to find a good daytime strain to help me get shit done. I will say that it hits you all at once, it’s definitely not a creeper like others. 4 good hits had me cleaning my house, cooking dinner, doing dishes and still had energy after the high wore off. Taste: inhale is earthy, exhale is very soapy/cleaner tasting.
smoked a half of this with a high tolerance and can certainly recommend this strain. (Experienced on high tolerance, low effects high) great strain for beginners due to its low thc, immediately felt very uplifted and energetic, causing me to want to wander around and do things. definitely a strain that produces that dry mouth so expect munchies. saw colours in much higher quality as well. P.S.: I haven’t experienced a moderate or high dose on this strain. Overall from what i experienced a very solid 8.5 i’d say.
Absolutely love this strain! It was recommended to me for my chronic tmj pain, and it has helped me quite a lot. After 10 minutes of smoking it the pain has completely gone away. I was finally able to talk and laugh without pain. The first 2 hours my eyes were extremely dry, they kept getting teary and I just had to keep rubbing them. But the high was quite mellow, yes the dizziness and tingling, as well as the loudness of sounds around me was a bit intense. But after just laying down with snacks and a good series I had an amazing afternoon. And the tiredness after the high was not too bad, so I was still able to work out afterwards.
