What is the origin of White Widow Autoflower?
- Genetic lineage: Brazilian Sativa × South Indian Indica
- Original breeder/creator: Shantibaba at Green House Seeds (early 1990s) Or
- Cannabis Cup prizes: Winner of the 1995 High Times Cannabis Cup
White Widow is one of the most famous hybrids ever bred. Most credit Shantibaba (Scott Blakey) at Green House Seeds with creating her in the early ’90s, though Dutch grower Ingemar (also known as “De Sjamaan”) is often mentioned as another possible origin. That debate has never really been settled, but what’s certain is that White Widow became a global icon after winning the 1995 High Times Cannabis Cup. Her resin-heavy buds and balanced effect made her the backbone of countless later strains.
How do you grow White Widow Autoflower seeds?
- Flowering time: 63–70 days seed to harvest
- Structure: Compact, bushy, with resin-coated buds
- Training: Light LST; avoid heavy stress training
- Outdoor climate region/zone: Mediterranean or cooler northern zones
- Nutrients: Balanced feed with extra phosphorus and potassium in bloom
This autoflower version stays short and bushy, perfect for small tents or a discreet backyard spot. She doesn’t need a light cycle change and will finish in about 9–10 weeks from seed. Keep training light, LST works well, but avoid heavy topping or supercropping since autos don’t bounce back easily. Indoors or outdoors, she puts on a sticky white coat that makes her name obvious.
How much does White Widow Autoflower yield?
- Indoors: 16–20 oz/m² (350–455 g/m²)
- Outdoors: About 14 oz (≈400 g) per plant; up to 20–25 oz (≈560–700 g) in ideal conditions
For an autoflower, she’s generous. These numbers are yield potential—how much you actually get depends a lot on your setup, environment, and grower skill. With the right care, she can really pack on the buds, but beginners should see these figures as a target rather than a guarantee.
