Strain Profile:  

Arjan at the Greenhouse first introduced the White Widow strain in 1995. All reports that I have read state that it has a very complex lineage. In Amsterdam most every coffee shop now sells WW. On my last trip I tried 3 different "WW".

One sample from the Green House Centrum, one from Homegrown Fantasy (Hydro) and one from a small local's shop called coffee shop "Tops". All three were very different. In all honesty my least favorite of the lot came from the green house. It was a nice bud but it didn't have the resin coverage like I remembered from previous trips to Adam.

The Hydro from Homegrown fantasy was excellent, as was the super resiny sample from "Tops." Other items that I have read state that WW is still very much unstable and therefor you could get almost anything." The way Marc told it was like this: Arjan had a WW on display at some expo in a-dam. Someone from Dutch passion/aloha stole a clone and hybridized it. That is the plant we bought for 130.00. This plays a part in the great variance we see in the plant, it's not just WW being unstable, we know what happens when we inbreed f1 generations- gene recombination produces various phenotypes representative of the hybrid and p1 plants as well as different genotypes. It's great if you're a breeder because you can begin to dial in your own preferences. I have one f2 plant I believe to actually be a throwback to the original WW. It is considerably larger and more indica than the rest.
