Original Classic… Original White Widow (IBL) is pure old school all the way. An explosive combination of Sativa and hybrid genetics from Brazil and India.
This is classic bud, 50/50 Sativa/Indica, with a popularity that has endured over the years. As the story goes, this plant harnessed the power of a super Sativa Brazilian land race together with a resinous Indica from the mountainsides of Kerala in Southern India.
We were given a female clone way back in 1996 and have been breeding it with a carefully selected White Widow male plant since then. A consistent component in some of our crossbreed plants, bringing quality enhancement, in 2012 we decided it was time to share the original strain in its purest form.
Our In Bred Line is strong, a lineage that comes all the way from the original champion strain, developed by our old friend Ingemar, known by many as 'The Father of the White Widow'. This powerful plant takes its name from the Black Widow spider, dangerously potent, in combination with the thick coating of white crystals that cover its resinous buds.
Expect all the characteristics that have earned this plant such a solid reputation. A sturdy plant, growth patterns are uniform, becoming bushy early on before stretching when in flower. This variety is a great fit for SOG, SCROG, LST and other forms of plant training, making it ideal for cultivators working with limited space. The many side branches produce fat tops, exploding with trichomes, which emanate its floral odour.
A gift to indoor growers thanks to a consistency that gives ease of control in a grow room and results that will fill your basket after 8-9 weeks of flowering. Easy to grow, this strain is the choice of beginners and experienced pros.
Outdoors it will reach for the sun (2m and more), which makes it a great choice in the southern regions of the world. However, as a true champion, Original White Widow (IBL) will also perform very well in more moderate climates of Northern Europe and Canada.
Mind, this plant is not for the faint hearted!
